Rug Restoration & Repair

Careful structural repair for treasured hand-knotted, Oriental, antique and contemporary rugs—from worn fringes and damaged edges to holes, tears and weakened foundations.

What We Repair

Skilled work for structural damage

Repair methods are selected after inspecting the fibres, foundation, weave and surrounding tension.

Fringe Repair

Securing loose ends, rebuilding worn fringe areas and preventing further unravelling.

Edges & Bindings

Repairing worn sides, loose bindings and exposed foundations along vulnerable edges.

Holes & Tears

Stabilising damaged foundations before rebuilding missing or separated woven areas.

Reweaving & Pile

Reconstructing selected warp, weft and pile areas where a detailed repair is appropriate.

Moth Damage

Assessing fibre loss and weakened areas, then stabilising or rebuilding affected sections.

Specialist Finishing

Careful alignment, tension correction and finishing to integrate the repaired area.

Frequently Asked

Restoration questions

Photographs are useful for an initial opinion, but some repairs require a hands-on inspection before we confirm the final scope.

Can damaged rug fringes be repaired?

Yes. Loose, worn or missing fringe can often be secured, rebuilt or replaced after an in-person condition assessment.

Do you repair moth damage and holes?

We assess moth damage, holes, tears and weakened foundations before recommending stabilisation, reweaving or a conservation-led repair.

How is a restoration quotation prepared?

Quotations are based on clear photographs followed, where necessary, by a hands-on inspection of the rug, its foundation and the damaged area.

Should the rug be cleaned before repair?

That depends on its condition and the type of work required. We will advise whether specialist cleaning should happen before or after structural repair.
