Your Rug Can Be Saved. Most Can.
A loose fringe doesn’t stay loose, it unravels. A small hole doesn’t stay small foot traffic and vacuuming make it bigger. Water damage left untreated leads to mold that destroys fibers from the inside.
The longer a damaged rug sits without professional attention, the more expensive the repair becomes and the smaller the chance it can be fully restored.
If you’ve noticed any of the following, your rug needs repair now:
- Fringe is fraying, missing, or coming loose at the ends
- Edges are curling, unraveling, or worn through
- A hole, tear, or chewed section is visible
- Pile is thin, bare, or worn flat in certain areas
- Colors have faded unevenly or bled into each other
- The rug won’t lie flat it buckles or waves
- Moth damage has eaten into the pile or foundation
- Water damage has left staining, odor, or stiffness
Any one of these is a repair job. All of them are fixable.
Why Atlanta Homeowners Trust Surena Rugs With Their Most Valuable Pieces
Rug repair is skilled artisan work. It requires knowledge of weaving structures, fiber types, natural dyes, and regional traditions. A Kashan repair is different from a Kilim repair. A silk rug requires different tools than a wool rug. These are not interchangeable skills.
Surena Rugs doesn’t subcontract repair work or send rugs to a warehouse. Every rug is repaired in-house by specialists with deep knowledge of Persian, Turkish, Afghan, and Indian weaving traditions. We match knots, colors, and wool by hand not by machine.
6 Reasons Customers Choose Surena for Rug Repair:
- We repair rugs other companies won’t touch. Foundation damage, serious moth damage, large holes we take on complex repairs that most cleaners or rug stores turn away.
- Free pickup in Atlanta. You don’t need to figure out how to roll and transport a damaged rug. We come to you, handle it carefully, and bring it back when it’s done.
- Every repair is quoted before any work begins. No surprises. We inspect the rug, explain what’s needed, and give you a clear estimate. You decide.
- We match the original. Knot structure, wool texture, dye tone our artisans study the rug before repairing it to make sure restored sections blend invisibly with the original.
- We also clean what we repair. Professional cleaning before repair improves color matching and fiber grip. Most customers do both in one visit.
We understand the heritage. A 100-year-old Persian rug isn’t just a floor covering, it’s a textile with history. We treat it accordingly.

Rug Repair Services We Offer in Atlanta
Fringe Repair & Replacement
Fringe is the first thing to go on a handmade rug and the most commonly ignored. Damaged fringe isn’t just cosmetic. Once the ends begin unraveling, the rug’s knots start to loosen from the bottom up.
We offer fringe tightening, cleaning, replacement, and full custom reconstruction handmade to match the original. Fringe repair is one of the most cost-effective investments you can make in a rug’s longevity.
Edge Binding & Side Cord Repair
The edges and side cords are what hold the rug’s structure together laterally. Worn, torn, or missing edges allow weft threads to loosen and once that starts, it spreads quickly.
We repair worn edges, curled sides, torn bindings, and missing edge wool. Cotton or wool border rewrapping is available to match the original construction.
Hole & Tear Repair
Holes happen from pets, heavy furniture, vacuum damage, insects, or simple age. Small holes become large ones fast.
Our weavers repair holes and tears by reweaving the damaged area knot by knot, matching the original pattern, wool texture, and dye tones as closely as possible. Done well, the repair is invisible.
Re-Knotting & Re-Weaving
This is the most skilled repair we offer and the most transformative. Re-weaving is used for worn pile, bare patches, threadbare sections, missing motifs, and serious structural damage.
We follow the rug’s original pattern, recreating sections knot by knot using matched wool and dye. Only trained artisans can do this work properly. It’s time-intensive, but it’s also what separates a restored rug from a patched one and it preserves the rug’s value.
Color Correction & Re-Dyeing
Natural dyes fade over time. Sun exposure, improper cleaning, and water damage can leave rugs with uneven color, washed-out motifs, or visible bleed marks.
We correct color by hand using colorfast, rug-safe dyes matched visually to the original not mixed by formula. Sun fading, color bleed, stain discoloration, and uneven tones are all treatable.
Foundation Repair
The foundation the warp and weft threads is the skeleton of the rug. When it’s compromised, the entire rug is at risk.
We repair broken warps, weak wefts, loose tension, buckling, and holes through the foundation. Foundation repair saves rugs that many companies consider beyond help.
Water Damage Repair
Water damage is deceptive a rug can look fine on the surface while mold and fiber damage develop underneath. Flooding, leaks, basement moisture, and even plant overwatering are common causes.
We provide mold treatment, odor removal, fiber preservation, foundation stabilization, and reweaving of water-damaged areas. Water damage must be addressed professionally DIY drying methods almost always make it worse.

Our Repair Process
Step 1 – Detailed Inspection We evaluate the rug’s damage, age, knot structure, dye type, fiber composition, and origin. This determines the exact repair technique and helps us create a realistic plan.
Step 2 – Custom Repair Plan & Quote You receive a clear explanation of the repairs needed, the recommended approach, a time estimate, and transparent pricing. Every repair is quoted individually — we never use per-square-foot formulas for restoration work.
Step 3 – Expert Hand Repair Your rug is repaired by trained artisans with hands-on knowledge of Persian, Turkish, Afghan, and Indian weaving styles. Methods are chosen to honor the rug’s origin and construction.
Step 4 – Professional Cleaning (Optional but Recommended) Cleaning before repair improves color matching, strengthens fiber grip, and produces cleaner, longer-lasting results. Most customers combine repair and cleaning in a single service visit.
Step 5 – Final Inspection & Delivery We review pattern accuracy, knot quality, edge strength, color consistency, and pile direction before the rug leaves our facility. Then we return it with full protective packaging.

Rug Repair Pricing
Repair pricing depends on the type of damage, the size of the affected area, the rug’s fiber type, and the complexity of the weave. We don’t post flat rates because a small fringe repair and a full foundation re-weave are completely different levels of work.
What we do promise: you’ll always know the cost before any work begins. We inspect, explain, and quote then you decide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can a hole in a Persian rug be repaired? Yes. Holes in Persian and other handmade rugs can be repaired through re-knotting and re-weaving. Our artisans recreate the damaged section knot by knot, matching the original pattern, wool, and dye tones. When done properly, the repair is virtually invisible.
How much does rug repair cost in Atlanta? Rug repair pricing depends on the type of damage, the rug’s fiber and weave complexity, and the size of the area being restored. A simple fringe repair costs far less than full foundation re-weaving. We always inspect and quote before any work begins no surprises.
Can moth-damaged rugs be restored? In most cases, yes. Moth larvae eat wool fibers from the base, which can damage both the pile and foundation. If caught early, affected areas can be re-woven and color-matched to restore the rug’s appearance. Severely moth-damaged rugs can still often be stabilized and improved significantly.
How long does rug repair take? Simple repairs like fringe replacement or edge binding typically take 1–2 weeks. More complex work like re-weaving or foundation repair can take 3–6 weeks depending on the rug’s size and damage level. We give you a realistic time estimate before we begin.
Do you repair rugs that other companies said can’t be fixed? Often, yes. We regularly work on rugs that carpet cleaners or general rug stores have turned away. Foundation damage, large holes, serious water damage, and extensive moth damage are all within our capability. If you’ve been told your rug is beyond repair, contact us for a second opinion.
Do you pick up rugs for repair in Atlanta? Yes. We offer free pickup and delivery for repair services within Atlanta. For Metro Atlanta customers, pickup and delivery is available for a $70 flat fee round trip. You can also drop off your rug at our showroom at 631 Miami Circle NE, Suite 30, Atlanta, GA 30324.
Is it worth repairing an antique rug? Almost always. Antique rugs appreciate in value over time, and professional repair preserves both their monetary and sentimental worth. Leaving damage untreated accelerates deterioration a properly repaired antique rug can last another generation. We treat every antique rug with the care and respect its age deserves.
Can you repair and clean a rug at the same time? Yes and we recommend it. Cleaning before repair improves color matching accuracy and ensures the rug’s fibers are in the best possible condition for re-weaving. Most customers bring their rug in for both services in a single visit.
