Carpet Stretching Services
My carpet stretching services are one of the most requested repairs in Macomb & Oakland County. The process of restretching is detaching the carpet from the tack strip. Then, stretch from one end of the room to the other, reattach to the tack strip, and cut off the excess carpet, making a much tighter stretch, which will remove wrinkles, buckling, and waves. Most importantly, A power stretcher is always used for stretching, and for more information or to see more photos, please visit the carpet stretching page or call 586-234-2754

I’ll be more than happy to do small carpet repairs. And whether it’s a stain or burn the size of a dime or something much more significant. I’ll be more than happy to take care of the carpet problems.
I’m your Berber carpet repair expert, and I have repaired all types and styles of Berber over the years. Berber can be one of the most challenging products to work with and requires great care and skill for the carpet repair to look good. Some Berbers have patterns. It is essential to line up the patterns, giving the repair a natural look.
If the carpet has come away from the threshold or the wall, I can repair it. Many things cause this problem. Someone pulled it back. It had just worn out, or the tack strip had broken free from the floor. Sometimes, the tack strip or Z-bar will need replacing, or the worn-out carpet may need stretching or a patch.
Carpet Repairs for Home Remodeling Projects
Are you planning to remodel or have a project involving pulling back, cutting, or removing the carpet? Feel free to call before doing this. I’ll be happy to advise you on how to do this without doing too much damage (Advice is free), or we can set up an appointment to have this done. Ripping up carpet can shred the backing, destroy transitions and corners, pull seams apart, and snag Berber rugs. Therefore, taking just a bit more care and time when cutting and pulling back the carpet will make it look better when it is back together. Not to mention, this could save you money.
Never just cut into the carpet if you plan on putting it back together. Use a row cutter to cut the rug to reduce damage to naps or loops. And, if you don’t have a row cutter, cut with a slotted double-edge carpet knife with a new blade. Above all, Cut as straight as possible. A clean cut will make a much cleaner and better-looking carpet transition to your newly installed flooring. If you replace the old carpet in one area with new flooring, leaving extra carpet at the doorways 2 to 3 inches is good.
Carpet Cleaning and Flooring Installation
If you have plans to have your flooring cleaned. I recommend having this done after the repair. I recommend looking for a certified cleaner on IICRC Locator (Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification), If you’re looking for a flooring installer, I recommend a certified installer on CFI’s Find an Installer (International Certified Flooring Installers Association).

Frequently Asked Questions and Answers (FAQ) about Carpet Repairs.
1: Have your carpet professionally installed. Make sure that the installer uses a power stretcher.
2: Vacuum 2 to 3 times a week.
3: Avoid being barefoot. The oil from your feet can build up on the carpet over time and act as a magnet for dirt.
3: Avoid wearing dirty shoes in the house. Dirty shoes can track in dirt, oil, and other unwanted things in your home.
4: Clean stains as quickly as possible and only use products for cleaning the carpet.
5: Always use professional carpet cleaners. I have seen everything from stained carpets to soaked carpets, causing delamination. Not removing all the shampoo from the carpet will make it sticky.
6: Scotch-guard your carpet when you get the carpet cleaned.
YES, the carpet can be repaired without replacing it, which is much cheaper in most cases. If the carpet is loose and you see buckling, this can be fixed by stretching the carpet.
