WHO WE ARE

We care about carpet! We are a small company that specializes in re-stretching carpet. This means we take a great deal of pride in our work. All of our crews are factory trained and certified to repair your carpet the right way! We have the knowledge and experience to handle whatever problem needs to be tackled. Originally, we began in the field of new carpet installations. Interestingly enough about 10 years ago we handled quite a large amount of warranty re-stretching work for a manufacturer that had started rippling due to a defective underlay (You’ll be happy to note that underlay is no longer available.) The experience was quite rewarding as we had many, many ecstatic customers that were worried they would have to replace their carpets. Fast forward a few years, and we realized there was a greater need for re-stretching in the Calgary area, and here we are! At Calgary Carpet Restretch we don’t believe any carpet should be changed before it’s time. We’ll be glad to help out.

The Calgary Carpet Restretch Advantage

Why are we the best in the industry at re-stretching? There are two main reasons.  Firstly our experience and secondly the fact that we always use a power stretcher for our repairs. Why call a repairman or installer who has little to no experience re-stretching carpet. This is what we do.  The fact is as well that most (99%) of installers and carpet repairmen only use a knee kicker. The difference between power stretched carpet and carpet stretched with a knee kicker is obvious. If you want to make sure your carpet is repaired properly, insist on experience, insist on a power stretcher!  Insist on Calgary Carpet Restretch!

FAQ’s

The best stretch is accomplished when rooms are cleared of furniture. With this being said, it is not always necessary or possible to move all furniture. Oftentimes, shifting the furniture in the room is all that is required to do the repairs. We make use of furniture sliders in order to do this in the easiest and most efficient manner possible. With that being said if we can have any smaller items, valuable or breakables removed from the area that is greatly appreciated.
We strongly recommend getting your carpets cleaned after. Oftentimes the dirt will collect on the ripples. When the ripples are stretched out, there may be a darker shadow from where that dirt has collected. As well depending on the type of carpet, the carpet may have stress marks from sitting in a rippled state for so long. Vaccumming may return the carpet to its pre-rippled state, but a good steam cleaning will solve both of these issues.
The reason for this is not because the carpet still has wrinkles, but because the carpet needs to be steam cleaned. It is usually always a good idea to get your carpets professionally steam cleaned after we do a re-stretch. Oftentimes the dirt will collect on the ripples. When the ripples are stretched out, there may be a darker shadow from where that dirt has collected. As well depending on the type of carpet, the carpet may have stress marks from sitting in a rippled state for so long.

The CRI 105-2002 Standard for Residential Carpet Installation guide states: “Visibility of the seams will vary with the type of carpet purchased. Customers should not be led to believe that seams will be invisible.”

We can give you a rough estimate over the phone, and our installers can give you an exact quote before commencing work.

Sometimes, after carpet that has been rippled for too long, the backing seperates from the top layer of carpet. In these instances the carpet may be able to be repaired, but in some extreme circumstance, it may not be possible to get the carpet stretched properly.

The CRI 105-2002 Standard for Residential Carpet Installation guide states:

Wrinking and buckling are most often caused by the failure to adequately stretch the carpet… , the use of an inappropriate cushion, adverse temperature and humidity conditions, or inadequate conditioning time.
