Rug Repair at Los Angeles Rug Cleaning

Many of our clients who give us their rugs for professional cleaning also ask for rug repair. In some cases they like us to down size their rugs. This maybe because of moving to a smaller home or some parts of the rug is damaged or some other reasons maybe involved.


In this particular case, our client wanted us to make a runner out of his carpet. We first cut the runner and then did the bindings on the sides by hand by one of our repair staff on site. For the bindings and the repair we use New Zealand lamb's wool. In some cases for the repair, we dye the yarn to get the color of our desire if we cannot find the right color in our yarn inventory.

NCIS LA at Rug Ideas For Film Shooting. LL Cool J Was Was Here

NCIS crew and actors were with us for three days on December 2, 3, and 4, 2013 for a film shooting. They changed the signs of the store as well as the decorations. They removed/covered all the modern/contemporary rugs and replaced them with classic/traditional pieces.



In any instances I could, I talked to them about how rugs are made and tried to change how they look at rugs and how they should see them as objects of art.
 The surrounding streets and blocks were closed by the police.

 I greeted LL Cool J.


 In his filming breaks in our store, I had lengthy conversation with LL Cool J on rugs, art, history, and culture.





 Eric Olsen was one of the other actors who was with us all day on the film shooting day.
The front windows of the store were covered with films/gels to prevent light reflections from the street.
