Why You Shouldn’t Ignore It
Besides looking bad, loose carpet is a tripping hazard. Those ripples can wear down faster, leading to bald spots or tears. Plus, every time you walk over a wrinkle, it stretches and strains the carpet even more.
How Carpet Stretching Works
Carpet stretching involves lifting the carpet from the tack strips along the walls, tightening it with a power stretcher (not just a knee kicker!), and then trimming and re-securing it. A professional has the right tools and expertise to do this without damaging the carpet.
