We had two small bubbles in our carpet. The bubbles were in a tricky area and another carpet company told us it could not be done. I found Bob and he scheduled a consultation He was very knowledgeable and made us feel confident that it would be done right. He met all of our expectations and was so speedy. I recommend him!

Bob A Haines showed up to my house. He carried his tools in to look the job over. He did an excellent job of stretching the bedroom carpet in my master bedroom, he even brought sliders to move the furniture that was required to get the job completed. Place looks like the carpet is brand new. His price can't be beat.
