AREA RUG REPAIR, RE-WEAVING & RESTORATION

I have personally been learning about these things from an expert from Persia.  I do some of the work myself or I use my expert.  Here again, if somebody tells you it can’t be done, ask me.  Over and over, I have been referred to as a miracle worker because I come up with ideas of how to do something that even my expert re-weaver says can’t be done.  Where there is a will, there is a way.  I have one of those heads for creativity, and combined with the desire to do what others can’t do, you are the one to benefit.

SOME OF THE MORE COMMON REPAIRS THAT WE PERFORM

Making fringe where fringe is worn or missing-  the new fringe comes from the foundation yarns from your rug, not from something new that is glued or sewn on

Repairing or replacing the serge along the edge

Repairing chewed corners or edges of a rug (thanks, Fido)

Re-weaving holes or large gaps or tears or ripped areas, no matter how extreme

Cutting down the size of a rug and still matching the pattern

Repairing or replacing binding on area rugs and exotics like sisal, coir, seagrass

Re-coloring stained or bleached areas

Re-laytexing the backing of a rug

Blocking & sizing of rugs (especially needlepoints)
