Welcome to Rug Fringe Repair UK.
The most common repair job we receive is Rug Fringe Repair as they are the first elements of the rugs to get damaged through use and vacuuming. If you do not wish to lose a couple of rows of knots there is the option to have new fringes woven into the rug. This involves intricate work where each individual strand of fringe is interwoven and locked a couple of inches into the rugs’ pile and out the end which allows a longer fringe to be created (even if the rug only originally had a short fringe).
Carrying out this repair means that even if parts of an original fringe have worn away the pile of the carpet does not need to be lost. This is for rugs that in repairing by removing knots would disturb its appearance, effecting its border; or for more valuable rugs which are perhaps investment quality, and you would like to keep in as original condition as possible. By nature, this is extremely intricate and time-consuming work and therefore can be more expensive however the results are well worth it.
Further to adding new fringes, it is possible to restore some rows of knots that have been lost due to fringe damage. Adding on a longer fringe then re-weaving lost knots before securing the fringe to bring the rug back to its original appearance. The colour, age and type of wool will determine how close a colour match can be achieved while re-knotting.
Again, this is even more time-consuming work than adding new fringes from within the rug’s pile and is reserved normally for high-end rugs or rugs which have so much damage that they need additional pile to be re-knotted to maintain the carpet’s appeal.
Repairs can be anything from simply securing edges or fringes thereby preventing further erosion, right through to re-weaving holes and damaged areas of pile, e.g. following fire damage. Charges vary depending upon type and size of rug and its repair but estimates are free so please do not hesitate to contact us.
