FINE RUG REPAIR
Do you have a fine oriental rug in your home or office?
Although they offer a more appealing aesthetic than traditional carpet, they will experience wear over time due to everyday traffic that traditional cleaning cannot fully restore. That is where the professionals of The Original Hoffman Cleaning team can come in and bring life back to your fine rug.
Small frays and tears in your rug can be costly if left unattended. The original Hoffman Cleaning team’s goal is to preserve the beauty and uniqueness that your rug brings to your home or office space through professional cleanings and time-honored techniques that include repairing loose or torn out fringe, salvage recovery, and re-knotting any damage to your rug’s pattern.
Each fine oriental rug is made by a craftsman who took years to master the skill, and thisskill cannot be copied by a machine. That is what makes each rug unique.
To ensure that your rug keeps its value throughout years of traffic and everyday wear, leave any repairs or cleaning to the professional team at The Original Hoffman Cleaning. You can be sure that your carpet or rug will be treated with the proper care and maintenance that it needs to retain its worth over the years to come.

View Available Rug Repair Services
- Fringe Repair: The fringe is often the first part of a rug to show wear and tear. This repair involves replacing or securing the fringes to prevent further damage.
- Edge Binding: The edges of a rug are prone to fraying. Edge binding involves reinforcing the sides of the rug with new material to prevent further wear.
- Tear Repair: If a rug has been torn due to heavy foot traffic or furniture, the torn area can be patched or reweaved.
- Moth Damage Repair: Moths can cause serious damage to rugs. In such cases, the rug is treated for pests and the damaged areas are repaired.
- Pile Wear Restoration: Over time, the pile of a rug can become worn down. This can be fixed by re-knotting and re-dyeing the affected area to match the original design.
- Color Run Correction: If a rug has been exposed to water or high humidity, colors may bleed into each other. This can often be corrected with specialized cleaning and dyeing techniques.
- Water Damage Repair: Water can cause a rug to shrink, warp, or develop mold and mildew. The rug needs to be thoroughly dried and treated, and any damaged areas repaired.
- Stain Removal: Stains from food, drink, or pets can often be removed with specialized cleaning methods.
- Hole Repair: Holes in a rug can be repaired by reweaving the damaged area to match the original pattern and color.
- Burn Repair: Burn marks can be cut out and the area reweaved or patched.
- Foundation Repair: If the foundation of a rug becomes damaged, it can be repaired or replaced to maintain the rug’s structure and durability.
- Overcasting: This is a preventative measure to stop fraying at the ends of a rug.
- Block Stretching: If a rug has become warped or misshapen, it can be reshaped with a process called block stretching.
- Shearing: This is a process where the top layer of wool is trimmed to restore the rug’s original texture.
- Reweaving: This involves repairing damaged areas by reweaving with yarn that matches the color, size, and texture of the original rug.
- Patchwork: In some cases, the damaged area of a rug is replaced with a matching patch from another rug.
- Pet Damage Repair: This involves cleaning and repairing areas that have been damaged by pet accidents, including odor removal.
- Dye Touch-up: Faded areas of a rug can be refreshed with a touch-up of the original dye.
- Slit Repair: Slits in a rug, often caused by wear and tear, can be repaired by reweaving or patching the area.
- Knotting: If the knotting in a rug comes undone, it can be re-knotted to maintain the rug’s design and structure.
