How to "Stretch" your carpet. Anyone?
« on: July 22, 2013, 11:53:50 PM »
I noticed the carpet in the bedroom has a slightly raised section where it is getting a little loose and looks like it needs to be re-stretched. However I don't  feel any tack strips along the wall so unless I am missing them I am wondering how to tighten up the carpet? Anyone have this issue and resolved it themselves? Certainly one of the better problems to have!  ::)

On the slide out panels it is glued. May just be that way on the floor.  On the bedroom street slide I had to pull the trim and carpet to install rollers in the bedroom.

My 01 Contessa had tack strips for the floor in the salon area. Assume bedroom would be the same.
