Different Carpet Repairs Explained

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, ensuring any movement in the carpet will not create a visible joint.
If you don't have a spare piece of carpet - no problem, we carry 1,000's of offcuts to match in.

RETHREADING 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. 

RETUFTING: 
We can repair or re-tuft carpet burns and pet damage up to 2 inches (50mm) in diameter.
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.

PERMANENT SPILLS AND STAINS: A very common repair involves spilled paint. Bleach is also an issue, but not as much now due to most modern carpets made from man made materials and are bleach safe. Wool and nylon carpets are mostly affected by bleach damage. 
The only option for this type of repair is to patch repair. This is done by cutting out the damaged carpet and inserting a matching piece.
