How Much Does Carpet Stretching Cost?

Waves, ripples, and bumps in carpet mean one thing: the carpet has gone loose. That is a fit problem, and stretching is the fix — usually far cheaper than replacing carpet that still has life in it. So what does it cost? It depends on the size of the room, how loose the carpet has gotten, how much furniture has to be worked around, and whether edges or adjoining rooms are involved. That is why we do not quote stretching from a chart. Send us photos of the ripples and we scope the actual job, then agree on one price with you before any work starts. If we get into a job and find something neither of us could see — an installation problem under the carpet, for example — we stop and talk it through before anything changes. Nothing extra happens on your bill without your say-so. What you are paying for is the correct procedure: a power stretcher pulling the carpet tight along the full run of the wall, the excess trimmed, and the edge re-tucked so the room lies flat. A kicker does not stretch carpet — ask any company which tool they use. A room takes about an hour depending on furniture, a proper stretch normally holds about five years, and our stretching is warrantied for one year. Ready for your number? Send photos from a few angles so the wrinkles, the room layout, and the furniture are visible, and we will price the real job. You can book online or call or text (615) 521-8900. And if the carpet is due for a clean as well, carpet cleaning and stretching are scoped together as one plan — stretch first, then clean.
