When I arrived at this carpet repair job, the customers were a couple of seasoned citizens. The wife took great delight in showing me where her husband spilled in all over the carpet. |

|---|---|---|
I explained to them that because the carpet was right in front of the window, that it may have faded a little bit and because of that, the patch of carpet that they wanted me to use to do the carpet patch with would be a slightly different color. |
||
The both felt that it would be better to have a patch that they could see a little bit than to have ugly ink stains on their carpet. |
||
The first thing I did was to use my straight edge and utility knife to cut the first two sides. |
||
Then the phone rang and I set up an appointment with someone who just happened to be in the same neighborhood. |
||
Using my straight edge, I began to cut the carpet from the back. |
||
Little by little I cut it down to size. |
||
It's important that the new piece of carpet is cut perfectly for the new carpet patch to look good. |
||
Using my Pam Glue Gun, I glued in the first side. |
||
Then the phone rang again. |
||
After the first side cooled down for a couple of minutes, I used my straight edge to cut the second side. |
||
I pay special attention to not cutting through any nap unless there's just no way around it. I do this by finding a row first with the back of the knife. |
||
Continuing to set up the seams. |
||
The backing of the carpet needs to meet up exactly. No gaps, no overlaps, no problem. |
||
Some final trimming and then I'll be ready to glue it all into place using my Pam Glue Gun and seam tape. |
||
I always leave the glue gun on top of something that won't be ruined if it happens to drip. |
||
Continuing to trim around the edges. |
||
There's more than one way to cut a patch to fit, this is my way. |
||
The first three sides have been attached and there's just one side to go. |
||
Here I am using my carpet tractor to push the glue into the back of the carpet. |
||
This carpet patch came out beautiful. The customers were so happy. By the way, thank you to the owners for taking these photos! |
