Carpet Cut Into Area Rugs
Through the home depot there are two different ways to get your specific area rug binded.
Carpet cut into area rugs. In fact any carpet with raw edges can be fabricated with any binding application you choose. The carpet used for the patterns should be of the same type and texture as the background carpet. Although rugs come in many shapes and sizes you may occasionally need to trim a rug to make it fit a certain spot in your home. Offers carpet cut to size and bound too so check out what we have in our warehouse.
Step 4 pull back the paper on the binding and begin applying it to the carpet in the middle of one cut edge. Use the straightedge to guide your carpet knife as you cut the carpet to ensure a clean straight cut. You may have to make 2 passes with the knife. Make sure to protect the surface beneath the remnant.
Cut out the background rug placing the carpet on corrugated cardboard or other surface that cannot be damaged if cut with a blade. A carpet remnant can be turned into an area rug using ordinary tools and an adhesive carpet binding product. Turn leftover carpet from a wall to wall installation into custom area rugs to protect your new carpet in high wear areas such as in front of couches down halls or even under your dog or cat bed. With the correct instruments and exact measurements it is possible to trim an area rug and leave it looking good enough to use in your space.
Of course the highest quality look will still be the cotton one but our synthetic binding will look great too. Use the same techniques to cut old wall to wall carpet down to area rug size. The first and best method is to come to your local home depot and speak to a flooring department specialist. If it s a synthetic rug or carpet use a synthetic binding or serging style.
