Pro-Stretch Carpet Installation System on Flooring Innovator

Recently an article about the carpet air stretchers was published on FlooringInnovator.com. The article shows the benefits of the carpet air stretchers to the entire process of carpet installation.

Lee Peters says “that carpet installation is changing.” He says, “it’s not the same job it was when I started in the trade 50 years ago.” In the days of hand sewen carpet seams the pole stretcher and the hot iron revolutionized the industry. “In those days,” Peters continues, “nobody thought anything of picking up the new technology.” He goes on to explain that a new wave of carpet technology is now available to move the industry in line with other trades. “With this new system,” he explains, “from the tack-strip application, through cutting, seaming, pattern matching, and stretching…the job will no longer be the same.” The system Lee Peters, owner of Lee’s Custom Floors, 50 year journeyman carpet fitter, and patent holder on the Pro-Stretch carpet air stretcher is referring to is a set of procedures and tools that contemporary carpet fitters have at their disposal in the carpet installation process.
