Expert Area Rug Repair Services in West Midwood, New York

Your area rug tells a story through its patterns and fibers, but over time, wear and tear can take a toll. At AB Rug Cleaners, we know that a frayed edge or loose weave doesn't mean your rug is beyond help. We offer a range of area rug repair services to restore its structure, appearance, and usefulness. Whether it's a Persian, Oriental, or modern area rug, our team uses careful, hands-on methods to bring back what's been worn or damaged.

01

Initial Assessment

We begin by examining your rug closely to understand its weave, fiber type, and the extent of any damage, from edge wear to holes.

02

Damage Documentation

We note each problem area, including frayed ends, broken knots, loose fringe, or color loss, so nothing is missed during repair.

03

Edge & Fringe Repair

We start by securing loose edges and reweaving or reattaching fringe using methods that match your rug's original construction.

04

Hole & Tear Mending

For open spots or tears, we carefully reweave or patch the area with matching fibers to blend seamlessly with the surrounding design.

05

Restretching & Reshaping

If your rug has ripples or has lost its shape, we gently restretch it back to its original dimensions without straining the fibers.
