Carpet Repair for Businesses – Save Money & Prevent Accidents


office hallway wrinkledNew Carpeting not in the Budget?

An attractive, safe, professional work environment is a top priority for todays Small Business Owners. The appearance of their work spaces reflect how they will be seen by their customers or clients. Typically, the first problem area that needs to be addressed is the carpeting. Fraying seams, rippled carpet in traffic areas, etc… all detract significantly from the image your business is trying to present! Also not to be dismissed lightly are the safety hazards inherent with frayed, rippled carpet. Increased insurance premiums due to workplace accidents can quickly put a company out of business. Admittedly, replacing worn carpeting can be very costly, especially when factoring in the disruptive nature of carpet installation, and resulting loss of work productivity. Most businesses simply cannot afford it, so they put it off until their next major renovation, whenever that might be.

Human nature being what it is, we all grow so accustomed to our everyday surroundings that we hardly notice them. That frayed seam that you instinctively step over daily could easily become a serious trip hazard to someone not so familiar with the environment, such as a client or new employee. Rather than put it off until that “next renovation” (and suffer the consequences)  the simple solution is to have have your carpet professionally repaired. — no duct tape involved!

It definitely makes sense to have carpet evaluated and repaired by a qualified carpet repair specialist. Not only will this elimate the danger of tripping hazards, it can also dramatically improve the life and appearance of your carpeting– at an exponentially lower cost than replacement. What are some areas that typically need to be repaired?

  • Seams – At minimum these can be re-adhered & trimmed where loose and frayed.  Optimally, if there is leftover carpet from the original installation, areas that are badly worn or frayed can be patched.
  • Transitions – Doorways, and Corridor Transitions are very susceptible to wear, and often present tripping hazards. Repairing or installing new transitions will do much to improve the look and safety, of your Business!
  • Entries – Entryways from outside can be particularly problematic. A cost-effective remedy to worn carpet in entries is to purchase & install walk-off mats. Not only will these increase safety, they will also dramatically improve the look of your carpeting!
  • Loose Areas – Heavy traffic, areas, Desk Chair areas, etc… can very quickly become loose, or delaminated. These areas can usually be re-adhered, greatly improving the life of your carpet and safety of your business.
