Different Carpet Repairs Explained
Patch Repairs
PATCH REPAIRS:
A patch repair involves cutting out and removing the damaged area.
A new, matching piece of carpet is inserted to the damaged area.
Burns and pets are the most common causes of damage requiring a patch.
Patch repairs are glued from the back and to the existing carpet using a hot glue seaming tape, ensuring any movement in the carpet will not create a visible joint.
No spare carpet - no problem, we carry 1,000's of offcuts to match in.
We offer a lifetime guarantee on all residential carpet repairs.
Re-Threading
RE-THREADING usually occurs with loop pile carpets.
The thread is a continuous strip across the width of the carpet.
The most common cause of thread damage is cats clicking at the loops or vacuum damage - the vacuum can catch a loose thread and pull out a longer section - eventually snapping the thread.
We offer a lifetime guarantee on all residential carpet repairs.
Re-Tufting
RETUFTING:
We can repair or re-tuft carpet burns and pet damage up to half an inch (13mm) in diameter.
Anything larger would require a small patch.
Re-tufting involves removing the damaged tufts or fibres and cleaning the area and installing new tufts from your spare carpet.
If you don’t have any spare carpet or off-cuts, we can take enough tufts from the edge of the carpet where they are tucked behind the gripper rods.
We can then install the new tufts either by re-tufting or re-weaving as appropriate.
Using tufts or fibres from either an off-cut or from the edging of the room, we’re guaranteed an exact match and a quality repair.
We offer a lifetime guarantee on all residential carpet repairs.
Permanent Spills and Stains
PERMANENT SPILLS AND STAINS:
A very common repair involves spilled paint. Emulsion paint is possible to remove depending how long the spill has been left. Gloss and solvent based paints are permanent.
Bleach is also an issue, but not as much now due to most modern carpets made from man made materials and classed as bleach safe.
Wool and nylon carpets are mostly affected by bleach damage due to the fibres being dyed after the carpet manufacture process.
The best option for this type of repair is to patch repair.
This is done by cutting out the damaged carpet and inserting a matching piece.
Small bleach spots may recolour
