Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Carpet stretching is one of the most effective ways to eliminate wrinkles, ripples, and loose areas in carpet. These issues commonly occur due to normal wear, humidity changes, or improper installation. Proper stretching restores a smooth, tight appearance and also helps prevent premature wear and tripping hazards.

In most cases, yes. Carpet repair—including stretching, patching, or seam repair—is typically much more affordable than full carpet replacement. Repair is often the best option when the carpet is still in good overall condition but has localized damage or looseness. During an inspection, we’ll give an honest recommendation on whether repair or replacement makes the most sense for your situation.

Most carpet stretching jobs can be completed in one to three hours, depending on the size of the room and the extent of the issue. Larger spaces or heavily furnished areas may take longer, but many projects can be finished in a single visit.

When performed professionally, carpet repairs are designed to blend in as seamlessly as possible. In many cases, repairs are barely noticeable or not noticeable at all. Results depend on factors such as carpet age, wear level, and availability of matching material, but our goal is always a clean, natural finish. We also will let you know before we start if a repair is likely to be noticeable.

In most cases, no. Foothills Carpet Care can move standard furniture as part of the service. For safety reasons, we do ask that small items, fragile décor, electronics, and personal belongings be cleared from the area beforehand. If large or specialty items are present, we’ll discuss expectations in advance.
