Carpet repairs across Melbourne’s south east and CBD | Call 0434 104 356
Loose carpet, waves and ripples can create trip hazards and make a room look older than it is. Restretching tightens carpet back toward the edges where the carpet condition allows.
Mobile carpet repair, restretching, patching and localised damage repair across South East Melbourne.

Restretching is for carpet that has become loose, wavy, wrinkled or bunched up.
It is different from patching because the main issue is tension, not a missing or burned section.
Dan checks the room shape, existing installation, backing condition and whether the carpet can be safely tensioned.
Old, brittle, delaminated or previously poorly installed carpet may limit the result.
We stand behind our restretching workmanship. If the same area loosens again because of our stretching work, contact us and we’ll review it fairly. This does not cover old, brittle, delaminated, water-damaged, heavily worn or previously poorly installed carpet.

Upload a close-up photo, a wider room photo and a spare carpet or wardrobe photo if you have one. Dan can usually advise the likely repair method from clear photos.
It can often significantly reduce or remove ripples, but results depend on the carpet condition, backing and previous installation.
When the carpet still has life left and the issue is looseness, restretching can be a practical repair option.
Yes. Send photos of the room and the ripples so Dan can assess what is likely to be involved.
