And the carpet saga continues. The new guy came today to fix it. Unfortunately, since the seam had already been heated 3 times (once to put it on, the second time to take it apart, and a third time to put it back together,) they had to cut out the area that had been heated so that there wouldn't be lumps in the carpet. Unfortunately, that meant that there wasn't enough carpet left. So they seamed it back together and put in an additional seam with a piece of carpet left in the garage. The problem now is that the other carpet had about 4 months of wear on it and the new is, well, new. There's a HUGE difference in color and texture between the two. Lowe's wants us to have it steam cleaned, but if it's still obvious, they'll replace it all.
The good news is that even if it has to be replaced, the new carpet guy is great. The seam down the center of the two worn pieces is nearly invisible, and if it weren't for the color and texture differences, the other seam would also be invisible. So, if we get new carpet in, he'll make it look perfect. Something to look forward to.
