More Carpet Problems

So the boyfriend and I are back from Charlottesville. We had a great visit with my dad. We also had a great time visiting wineries. We were able to go to 14 wineries while in Charlottesville. It was fun.

When I got home I was expecting to see the messed up carpeting all cleaned and put back in place but nothing had been done. They only took the blowers and the de-humidifier out. I had a notice under my door saying they would be returning on Monday to replace the padding, fix the carpet, and clean the carpet. So I waited all day Monday for them to arrive and they didn’t show up until 6:50 pm. I was not happy. Then they proceed to tell me that the carpet can’t be fixed. The backing had separated from the actual carpet and couldn’t be re-attached to the tack strips. I asked what that meant and they said I had to have my carpet replaced. The guy went to talk to the condo lady and she told him the insurance adjuster will be coming in today to take a claim. I will not be paying for this. I wonder if they will just cut me a check or will I have to get it replaced and then get paid.

Right after he told me the carpet couldn’t be fixed I got my camera out and started snapping photos for the insurance in case my insurance has to get involved. Here’s are some photos from the damage.

This photo shows how the backing has separtated from the carpet in the dining room.
