You need a cotton head. Life changer with patterns
Yeah I will definitely be getting one
Someone spent a small fortune on carpet. Beautiful work
Yup
Looks good man. Wouldnt be able to use awls down here in florida everything is concrete. Would have to use a straight edge. Thats some expensive carpet
That would suck on concrete
@@FloorsbySouthernboys down here in Florida 95% is concrete
Another exceptional video. Appreciate you taking the time to share, this is what our industry needs. Thank you!
Thank you my friend
Heck of a job man, sometimes I consider undercutting the whole job when I get wild carpet, nothing worse than tucking something and realize it needs another bump up, pisses me off
Oh man that sucks
Well yeah if you undercut then you can just send a little more carpet under the wall, I hate getting patterns and no tuck space
Looks great surprised you didn’t use your cotton head
Unfortunately, I don’t have one, I will be getting one though for sure
It's scary, but if you know your walls are absolutely parallel, do your long stretch and set that wall. Double tackstrip is your friend here.
Now, stretch 3 or 4 times in width to get a feel for how much it will stretch in width. Trim that first couple of feet on an even row as if you were going to tuck it in.
... don't tuck it in. Using your stretcher, release it from the tackstrip, then use a row cutter and pre trim the entire wall.
Now, stretch it back in place for a couple feet then tuck that in.
Set this wall on the tacks and make a couple of long stretches to the opposite wall.
NOW..... Go back and stretch your pre trimmed wall perfectly even and tuck it in. Gutsy? Maybe.
Raised baseboards help on this process, but not required.
Once the width is stretched, go finish the length.
If my description is confusing, I'm simply saying that once you make a few stretches in width to know how much stretch you'll get ....... Do the finished width trimming before you stretch it........ It's going to end up there anyway, right?
Can you please do a video on floating stairs not sure if that’s the correct name, but they are open the whole way around. There is only the tread
Gotta wrap em up just like a Christmas present man, they are pretty horrible to do
Yes sir
Hope you charged by the hour for this job!
I made good on it I’ll just say that
Brilliant job as usual.
Thank you sir
Ruben your always on another level my god that is tidy work takes patience and skill keep up the good work🔥🔥🔥
😀thank you buddy
That's gotta take some patience. Looks good!
Yes sir
👍🏻
😀👍
Surprised them teeth on the stretcher did cause problems on the face of the carpet . I'd worry about them pulling loops. Id probably of went to a cotton head..looks awesome very time consuming. Watching you work is like watching Bob Ross paint . You make it looks so easy but we both know it's not
I keep a metal file to take the bend off of the teeth on my stretcher when I do LCL carpets works if your in a position where you can’t get a cotton head attachment
Trust me, I was a little concerned about that, and even pushing the loops through the backing. I will have a cotton head before I do another one.

Wow i do flooring but never carpet am impressed
😀👍thanks buddy
Please tell me you got $20 per yard just for the installation of carpet and pad?
I would suggest investing in a cotton head attachment for your power stretcher for carpets like this
Yes I am definitely going to do that
Definitely agree about the cotton head. I know there’s one person who says cotton head should not be used on wool but they’re just flat out wrong.
Great work 👏
Thank you my friend
