Rug Re-Sizing and Down Sizing

Some rugs are damaged and we cut the damaged areas and secure the rest of the rugs. Or sometimes they are big and customers move in to smaller homes and would like us the down size them and this is part of our rug repair jobs. Here I am posting few pictures from an 8' x 10' rug. Our client wanted to make it into two pieces of 5' x 1o' x 3' x 10' which we did. We marked the back of the rug and cut it into two pieces. It is easier to see and to cut a rug from the back as there is no pile on the back so you can mark it and cut it straight. Then our repairman secured it and did the sevlaging and binding by hand. The client was happy to see the downsized rug and the new cute baby runner.
