Flooring is subjected to a lot of abuse. Spills, stains, and heavy traffic can all mar the surface of your floor, especially if your floor is covered in carpet. Though cost-effective, beautiful, and comfortable, carpet is particularly susceptible to damage under ordinary use. For homeowners in San Francisco, carpet repair is often a necessary task. Even if you are careful, problems like snags and rips can appear. When you consider factors like pets or kids, the likelihood of needing carpet repair goes up quickly. Since you shouldn't have to choose between parenthood/pet ownership and carpeting, here are some things you should know about carpet repair in San Francisco.
Who to Call
The extent of carpet damage often increases if left unattended. A loose carpet that is beginning to ripple and become uneven will only get looser over time; a snag that is in a high traffic area can easily get caught and become worse very quickly. Blemishes become permanent stains with time or improper cleaning techniques. And, while burns pretty much do their damage upfront, you don't want to leave these unsightly marks on your carpet for the whole world to see or be forced to rearrange your furniture. San Francisco carpet repair professionals will return all your interior decorating options.
Depending on the type of work that is needed, carpet repair can be done by several different people. Larger stains and burns that will not come out should generally be handled by a carpet specialist, but smaller repairs for snags can often be handled by carpet cleaning services. Many times, carpet cleaners will also have the equipment needed to re-stretch your carpet. Small stains or burns may sometimes be repaired by the homeowner by trimming the affected area with scissors.
The Cost
Since there are so many different types of carpet repairs, San Francisco homeowners will find that the cost of these jobs varies quite a bit. Hiring a carpet repair service can run anywhere from $50 or $100 to $400 or more in the Bay Area. It is always a good idea to get several quotes from a few different companies if you want to get the best price. Once your carpet repair gets to be several hundred dollars (high priced repairs are not uncommon after incidents like burst pipes or fire), replacement might make more sense than repair.
Carpet replacement offers many more options than repair. The decision to get rid of your carpet rather than fix it is one that shouldn't be taken lightly, as it is decidedly more expensive. Nationwide, our figures show an average cost of about $1,700 for carpet installation. In the Bay Area, we've seen prices go as high as $4,000! However, if your carpets are already more than 10 years old and are about to cost you several hundred bucks to repair, getting a brand new carpet installed might be a more sound investment than fixing the existing one.
