The wetness made the rug wrinkle like crazy and there were black marks all over it. I could go on about other horror stories I've heard about this business. Please warn newbies, not to use this Dave's.
We made the same mistake. Had Dave come do a quote and spent a looong time lecturing us about wearing black soled shoes, etc. Pretended to be a strong Christian who stood behind his work. Said he'd make the carpet look almost new. He did stretch the carpets, and that turned out alright, but the carpet looked worse than when he started and got much worse each day. We've since contracted to tear out the carpet & replace with laminate flooring. It was an expensive lesson to learn!
