Just realized I was stretching carpet wrong for 6 years
I always started in the middle of the room and worked toward the walls, like my old boss taught me back in Phoenix. Then last week a customer's seam split right down the center and a guy from the supply house told me you're supposed to start at the longest wall and work outward so the tension pulls even both ways. Has anyone else had a moment where a simple trick you thought was standard turned out to be backwards?
