Question No. 07 1 min read

Can you stretch wrinkled or loose carpet?

Yes. Our carpet stretching service uses a power stretcher (not a knee kicker) to pull wrinkled, rippled, or buckled carpet tight against the tack strip again. Most rooms get done in under an hour. These signs tell you when stretching is the right call, and here's the typical cost in Ottawa.

Stretching makes sense when:

  • The carpet is less than 10 years old and still in good shape
  • The backing is intact (no delaminating jute or hard ridges)
  • There are no major stains, burns, or pet damage

If the carpet is at end of life, replacement often costs less than repeated stretching. We tell you straight after walking the room.
