A carpet installation device is provided which enables a carpet installer to spread and tuck a carpet while the installer is in a substantially upright position. The device comprises a blade having a generally flat bottom edge, an elongate shaft extending upwardly from the blade, a hand grip on the shaft, and an arm bracket on the shaft above the hand grip. The shaft includes a lower portion, an upper portion horizontally offset from the lower portion, and a transition portion extending between the lower portion and the upper portion. The transition section is sized such that when the installer grasps the hand grip, his arm will be substantially aligned with the shaft bottom portion when his arm is generally in contact with the shaft upper portion. Preferably, the shaft top portion is offset from the shaft lower portion by approximately the width of a user's hand.
