Carpet installer in Tacoma, WA

Tacoma's Hilltop and Stadium District homes date back to the late 1800s and early 1900s. Subfloors in these properties have shifted, been patched, and in some cases have soft spots from decades of moisture exposure near Commencement Bay. Carpet laid over an uneven or damaged subfloor will not hold a re-stretch well. We check the subfloor first and address any issues before the carpet work begins.

Tacoma has a large rental market, and rental properties in East Tacoma and the South End see high turnover. Each turnover typically needs at least a carpet assessment and often a patch, a re-stretch, or a full carpet installation. We give landlords a clear picture of what the carpet needs and what it will cost, without recommending replacement when repair is the right answer.

Tacoma's position on Commencement Bay means the city gets significant rainfall and persistent winter dampness. Ground-floor carpet in older homes near the waterfront and in low-lying East Tacoma neighborhoods is exposed to moisture that works its way in through foundation edges and under exterior doors. Water damage repair removes the wet pad and restores the floor before mold becomes a problem.
