Nice video. It was probably done in such a way to give the viewers a basic understanding of how carpet is installed. I’m sure that many installers have several different variations incorporating their own techniques. Like anything else, if you want to become good at it, practice is a great approach. I’m a bit puzzled however, by a lot of the comments from people who seem to have some experience installing carpet. If they know a better way of how the process works or what tools they should be using, what the heck are they doing viewing and heckling a “how to” video about something they have supposedly mastered?
@jaimeeclair8999 4 жыл бұрын
Hahahahah, I always wonder about such comments too! My thought is always, if you know how to do something better, why don't you upload your own video and show how it should be rightly done? I on the other hand am always greatly for people giving their time, energy and money to teach others like myself, about anything.

@rodneysmith247 Жыл бұрын
The proper way to clean carpet is to clean it with a carpet cleaning machine preferably a mobile carpet cleaning service. Make sure a prespray cleaner is applied 1st generally to just the problem soiled areas and then rinsed by extracted with total clean water from the the mobile unit. If soapy water is only used from the machine and not rinsed with clean water it will leave a soap residue which can gum up your carpet.

Power stretchers are really only need for larger rooms, in a typical bedroom or living room a knee kicker is all you need if you do it right. Make sure one section behind the wall your stretching is attached properly to the tack strip or you’ll just pull the carpet off of it

Generally the lower the pile of your carpet the more the tack strip pins can poke your feet. General practice says to not take a hammer to bend the tack strip pins down but using your fingers to gently find the pins should solve your problem.

Awful installation ! Underlay bigger then the gripper height & cutting the carpet to joint from the top when it should be done from the back !! The seam will show for sure.
@davidschamanski5840 6 жыл бұрын
You're right about cutting a plush from the topside, which cuts the yarns. As for the comment about the pad (underlay) being higher than the tack strip (grippah), tack strip is only 1/4" thick, so unless you install 1/4" pad, it will always be taller/higher than the strip. This is not an issue. Also, there was never any weight put on the seam after being put together, the weight holds the carpet in the seam-tape glue until it sets and also draws heat out of the seam. The seam also needs to be pulled off the pad before stretching, as sometimes it will stick to the pad.
