If the skeleton” onto which the design is woven is not constructed properly, the repair will be obvious and devalued the value of the rug. The second step is to reweave the area to match as the rug was originally woven. At this stage our master weaver matches the color of the wool precisely to original colors.

Stitching applied by hand, which prevents the ends from unraveling, is the most natural way of securing the ends of your rug.

FRINGE REPAIR

We can replace worn out fringe on your rug with new hand-tied fringe or hand sew ready-made fringe. If hand repair is not appropriate for your rug we can sew a fringe on by machine. We stock numerous ready-made fringes in a variety of colors and materials.

REWEAVING & PATCHING

When rugs become damaged from an unfortunate event, such as a pet chewing a hole, we have the ability to reweave your rug. In some cases, reweaving is not the only option. We can also patch your rug using Oriental rug material that we have available.

BINDING & SERGING

Woven Passion uses the finest materials available when binding and serging rugs. When binding a rug, we first reinforce the edge with a tape and latex strip for greater durability, then we color match the binding tape from our wide selection of widths and colors, and finally sew the tape to the rug with our specialized machine for a finished edge. Serging is another popular way to finish a rug or carpet. This process involves continuously wrapping the rug edge with yarn for a secure and durable finish. We typically use wool or cotton, available in a wide variety of colors. Every rug edge is reinforced prior to serging for a long-lasting, beautiful finish.
