or replace the carpet. 10 years is a long time for carpet..

We just replaced 20 year old carpet - still in good condition but

went to hardwood. Good carpet can last a LONG time. Cheap "berber",

not so long

When you say"good carpet" do you mean wool or synthetic?

Both. Good wool or good Nylon can both last a long time. Polyethelene
is crap.
