The 6 month transformation of a rental hallway carpet that blew my mind
I went back to a condo I installed carpet in 6 months ago and barely recognized the place. The owner had me put in a light beige nylon carpet that looked amazing on day one. When I walked in last week, that same carpet was almost black in the main traffic lane from the door to the kitchen. The weird thing was the edges near the walls still looked brand new, like a perfect line between clean and dirty. The owner said their kids and a golden retriever just run back and forth all day long. I swear I saw a grape smashed into the fibers near the staircase too. Has anyone else seen that dramatic of a change in just half a year, or was this just a bad choice for a busy house?

A 6 month old carpet that clean near the walls is just bad maintenance not bad carpet.

Yeah 6 months and it's already looking like a crime scene in the hallway? That grape near the stairs is just the cherry on top. I bet that golden retriever thinks the carpet is a snack buffet. Kids and dogs are basically a demolition crew with fur and sticky fingers. Sounds like they should have just laid down a tarp and called it a day.
