How Carpet Patching is Carried Out?
- Carpet patching service is carried out by replacing the damaged patch with a fresh donor patch. So the first step of carpet patching is to find a donor patch or a freshly cut patch form the unused carpet.
- Then a special carpet knife is used to cut and strip away the repair piece. Keen attention is given to all the dimensions and proper measurements are taken before cutting out the piece. Then the dimensions of the donor piece and repair piece are matched and then carpet patching is carried out.
- Now the damaged area is carefully traced on a tracing paper to match the donor patch with the damaged patch. Tracing helps in the proper fixing of the repair piece and to avoid any gaps in between.
- Using the carpet knife, the damaged patch of the carpet is carefully cut out. Professionals often cut out small shapes of circles, triangles or rectangles to make the carpet patching easy and effective. It is preferable to cut out a small piece as per need to prevent further damage to carpet hole or to prevent carpet folds or wrinkle.
- Now the donor piece is carefully fixed on the damaged cut out a patch of the carpet. Carpet tapes and some carpet glue is used to fix the donor patch effectively while preventing any gaps in between.
- The donor patch is pressed firmly to prevent the carpet from getting uneven or to get a wrinkle. The direction and orientation of the donor piece are carefully maintained to prevent it from being visible. Visible donor patches on the carpet can hamper the appearance and make your carpets look ugly and repaired.
- After finishing the carpet patching, extra fibres that are protruding, are cut off using a scissor. The trimming of the extra protruding fibres is necessary to give an even look and appearance to the donor patch. Fibres of the donor patch and the carpet are kept in the same length to avoid unevenness and to hide the visible repair.
