PORTLAND, OR – Are you searching for the best professional to handle your carpet stretching or carpet repair needs in Portland? Not only is A+ Carpet Cleaning locally and family-owned, but we’ve been in business for over fifteen years. Our technicians are experts at handling all kinds of different repairs, including seams, stretching, patching, and more!
When you are doing your initial research to decide which company to call, there are several factors to consider that should impact your final decision. We know that it can be overwhelming to look at all the different websites, business listings, reviews, etc. etc. That’s why we came up with a handy reference list for you to check prior to giving any business a call.
Local Expertise and Reputation
When you’re looking for someone to trust to enter and improve your home, local is so important! Calling a business that has expertise in the Portland, OR area is helpful for multiple reasons. Not only is it important to support local businesses wherever you can, but a local carpet repair company is more in tune with the neighborhoods and layouts. We’ve been servicing the Portland area for over a decade and therefore have a lot of knowledge with the different areas. For example, neighborhoods are often built by the same builders. If a whole neighborhood was built with improper carpet installation, we often return to multiple homes to help stretch the carpet back into place.
It also helps to have friends, realtors, and property management companies in the area who have used the company you’re interested in and can attest to their quality. We get many of our clients from referrals, and we are so grateful to those who pass our name along.
Whenever we are looking for a company, we often use Nextdoor, which is an “app for neighborhoods where you can get local tips, buy and sell items, and more.” If you’re wanting to know who your neighbor’s have used (and are pleased with), this is a great resource for you! Nextdoor will automatically put you in a group with others who live in the same area, and will allow you to ask what companies your neighborhood is familiar with and their experience.
Experience with Various Carpet Types
Whether or not you realize it, carpet comes in a variety of materials and styles. With this variety comes the necessity to know how to handle each different type, and a true professional will be able to identify your carpet needs with you and help you know how to maintain your carpet depending on its unique fibers and piles. When looking to hire a professional for carpet stretching, make sure you ask about their experience with different carpet types. A company that has extensive experience working with a wide range of carpets will be better equipped to handle your specific needs and ensure optimal results. We have experience with all types of carpet, including wool carpets, synthetic, Berber, high pile, low pile… the list could go on and on.
Advanced Equipment and Techniques
Professional technicians come with professional equipment and techniques. It’s all part of the package deal! The right company will not only come in with experience, but will also have the correct tools to do the job right. For example, some companies will knee-kick carpets back into place using a knee-kicking tool. We power-stretch carpets, we don’t just knee kick them into place. Knee kicking doesn’t provide the best possible stretch. Our process involves lifting the carpet off of the tack strip, cutting away excess, and using a power stretcher to get the best, most long-lasting stretch possible.
In order to power-stretch carpets, we utilize a power-stretcher, amongst other tools, to make sure your carpets are handled in the best way possible. Before hiring a company, we’d encourage you to inquire about the equipment and techniques used by the carpet stretching professionals. Advanced tools and methods, such as power stretchers and heat-seaming, can ensure a more thorough and long-lasting stretch.
Customer Service and Communication
We have all dealt with the unpleasant customer service representative over the phone. If you call a company and are not treated in a warm, friendly and exceptional way, that’s a good sign that business isn’t the one for you. Extraordinary customer service and communication are essential qualities of any reputable carpet stretching professional. Here at A+ Carpet Cleaning, you’ll either be speaking with Tiki or Chantal. Both of us love speaking with new people, asking intentional questions, and getting to the bottom of your needs (and how we can help!) Remember that the person who answers the phone is a great sample of the company overall. When you make that first phone call, be sure to pay attention to how responsive and attentive the company is to your inquiries and concerns. Clear communication throughout the project ensures that your expectations are met and that any issues are promptly addressed.
For us, transparency in pricing, products, and processes is vital. Before providing you with an estimate, we make it a priority to review our entire pricing structure with you so you know how the numbers are adding up. We make sure to verbally walk you through the preparation for your appointment even though it is also on a confirmation email you’ll receive after the phone call. Overall, at A+ Carpet Cleaning, we think it is very important to leave you feeling comfortable and excited about your upcoming appointment, and what better way to do that than to get in front of any questions right off the bat!
By considering these essential factors and conducting thorough research, you can confidently select the best professional for your carpet stretching needs in Portland. When you know your chosen company is local, has experience, professional-grade equipment, and a genuine desire to help, you can rest assured that your carpets will receive the highest level of care and attention they deserve. Don’t settle for anything less than the best – choose a reputable carpet stretching professional and enjoy beautifully stretched carpets that enhance the comfort and aesthetics of your home for years to come.
