Over time, carpets can develop wrinkles, ripples, and loose areas, making them look worn and even creating a tripping hazard in your home or business. If your carpet isn’t lying flat anymore, it’s time to consider professional carpet stretching. At Phoenix Carpet Repair & Cleaning, we specialize in restoring your carpet’s original appearance by tightening the carpet and removing unsightly ripples.
Why Does Carpet Become Loose?
Carpet can become loose for several reasons, including:
✔ Poor Installation – If a carpet isn’t properly stretched during installation, it may begin to loosen over time.
✔ Heavy Foot Traffic – Frequent use, especially in high-traffic areas, can cause the carpet to shift and develop ripples.
✔ Humidity & Temperature Changes – Carpet fibers expand and contract with moisture and temperature fluctuations, which can lead to buckling.
✔ Moving Heavy Furniture – Dragging furniture across the carpet can pull it out of place, creating loose areas.
How Carpet Stretching Works
Carpet stretching is a cost-effective way to restore the look and safety of your carpet without needing a full replacement. Our expert technicians follow a precise process to ensure the best results:
- Inspection & Preparation – We assess the carpet’s condition and determine the best approach for stretching.
- Power Stretching – Unlike DIY solutions that use knee kickers, we use professional-grade power stretchers to pull the carpet taut, ensuring a secure and long-lasting fit.
- Trimming & Refastening – After stretching, we trim any excess carpet and secure it back into place along the edges.
- Final Inspection & Cleaning – We check the entire area to ensure the carpet is properly tightened and smooth, and we can even provide a professional cleaning to give it a fresh, like-new appearance.
