Our goal is simple: restore your carpet to its original, smooth, and secure appearance — and make sure the ripples don’t return.
Why You Should Choose Power Stretching Over Knee Kicking
Many homeowners call us asking if we can “just knee kick” a small area around furniture to remove ripples. However, we don’t recommend — or offer — that shortcut method. Here’s why:
Knee kicking is a temporary fix that only stretches the carpet near the edges or visible ripples. Unfortunately, this method doesn’t pull the carpet tight across the entire room, which means the ripples almost always return.
Instead, we use professional-grade power stretchers, which anchor on one side of the room and pull the carpet tight across the full surface. This ensures the tension is even and secure throughout the entire space, resulting in a long-lasting, professional finish.
According to the Carpet and Rug Institute, proper power stretching during installation or repair is the best way to prevent carpet buckling and maintain the carpet’s structural integrity over time.
Furniture Must Be Removed Before Stretching
For the most effective power stretching, all furniture must be removed from the room before our technicians arrive. Stretching requires pulling the carpet wall to wall, which can’t be done properly if furniture is in the way. We understand this can be a bit of work, but removing furniture allows us to ensure a tighter stretch and a smoother, more professional result that will last for years.
If you need tips on moving furniture safely or temporarily storing it, The Spruce offers some great advice on how to do it without damaging your floors or your back.
