Rug Repair and Restoration in Cathedral City, CA

We recently completed a rug repair and restoration project in Cathedral City, CA for a client whose hand-knotted rug had begun to show structural wear along the edges and visible thinning in several high-traffic areas. These issues often appear gradually, but if left untreated, they can compromise the rug’s foundation.

During the inspection, we identified frayed side cords, weakened fringe knots, and small areas where the pile had worn down enough to expose underlying fibers. Because this was a traditionally woven piece, preserving its original structure and appearance was a priority. We evaluated the weave tension and selected matching fibers to ensure seamless repairs.

Restoration and Reinforcement Process

Our restoration included:

• Rebuilding and securing side cords
• Replacing and stabilizing fringe
• Reweaving worn sections to protect the foundation
• Strengthening edges with hand-applied binding
• Correcting minor shape distortion through blocking
