Hi I’m Kent Walton. I am an educated and experienced carpet cleaner. However, I began with installing floors for the first 15 years of my career. So I know everything there is know about repairing and re-stretching carpet. How I handle the damaged area depends upon the type of damage, location of damage and type of carpet. Some examples of what we normally see are carpet re-stretch, carpet patch, seam repair, door way repairs, carpet tears and pet damaged carpet.
To complete the repair process we always recommend a good carpet cleaning, as we find most of our customers put off the maintenance of their carpet due to the needed repair. We offer a variety of maintenance packages to choose from .and offer discounts for combined services.
Common Repair Questions:
How do you Fix /repair the damaged area?
Re-stretch
1. I will first assess the area to determine the best strategy for re stretching the carpet.
2. Next I will go over the job -what furniture will need to be moved, if seams need to be cut and remade, cost of job and approximate time.
3. A typical re-stretch will involve pulling up an area of carpet.
Then using a power stretcher I will pull carpet taunt. And re-attach the carpet to the tack strip
After that I cut off the excess carpet
(Some re stretches will require remaking of a seam or seams – hallways, multiple areas, etc.)
Clean up and Vacuum.
For best results I recommend you also have me clean the area using OP method to remove crease marks
And dirt that accumulated in rippled areas.
Patch
1. I will first assess the area to determine the best strategy for patching the carpet. Where will carpet patch come from? (Left over carpet or a closet-will carpet need to be ordered.)
2. Next I will go over the job -what furniture will need to be moved, cost of job and time involved.
3. I establish where the carpet needed for patch is coming from,
4. I cut out the damaged area of carpet.
5. Measure out a slightly larger piece of carpet to use as a patch.
6. Cut the piece to the exact size
7. I use hot iron and seam tape to secure carpet patch.(hot glue gun with special tip is sometimes used to strengthen the bond)
8. Carpet is trimmed and area is vacuumed
10. Most likely the patched area will be of a different wear use and look a different color. A cleaning would lighten the surrounding carpet helping it to blend with the new piece.
Will you guarantee the work?
Yes, I guarantee all my work. The re-stretch of carpet, seam work and patches are guaranteed for the life of the carpet.
What will it cost?
The cost will vary greatly depending on the extent of work involved. I will be able to give you an accurate quote once I see the area involved. (Although rare – unusual circumstances may involve an hourly rate quote)
How long will it take?
The time will also vary depending on the service. I will give you an approximate time once I see the area involved. Quality of work is my main objective so it could run over to assure good workmanship.
Will I need to move all my furniture?
Not all furniture will not need to be moved. However, I’ll need to see the area first and then will be able to identify items that will need to be moved.
Should I have my carpet cleaned after it’s repaired?
Once the carpet is repaired I recommend a cleaning for various reasons.
If a carpet is in need of a re-stretch than dirt has been trapped in the ripples that was too difficult for the vacuum to reach. In addition a cleaning method involving agitation will help with crease marks cause from the ripples.
If your carpet is in need of a patch than most likely the patched area will be of a different wear use and look a different color. A cleaning would lighten the surrounding carpet helping it to blend with the new piece.
Often people put off cleaning their carpet because the carpet is damaged.
Carpet should be cleaned regularly in order to both extend the life of the carpet and to clear your carpet of indoor pollutants.
