I know this is WAY off topic but. . . . . . . . . . . . I have carpet in one of our little used bedrooms (my kids are grown and gone). It has stretched and now shows "wrinkles" throughout the room. The carpet is probably at least 15 years old. The only thing I can think of that has changed is that we had had our formally damp crawl space encapsulated and drainage lines installed So there is now less humidity in the house.
The room gets little use so minimal to no wear from foot traffic. I would almost consider trying to restretch it - but I have a gun safe and a heavy roll top desk sitting on the carpet and neither would be easy to move. I've even thought about cutting the carpet down the middle of the room and trying reseam it - but not knowing what caused the issue gives me concern if I "fix it" - will it happen again ?
TIA. for thoughts or suggestions.
