Do you wash or clean rugs?

No. Stylish Rugs & Carpets does not wash or clean rugs - not in our Sacramento shop, and not through anyone else on your behalf. What we will do is tell you who does: call (916) 890-4077 or come by with the rug, and once we see the weave and the fringe we can usually point you to the right specialist in the Sacramento area.

Do you repair, restore or re-fringe rugs?

No. We do not repair, restore or re-fringe rugs, neither in our own workshop nor through a partner. We would rather say no than get it wrong: sending a wool rug to the wrong cleaner, or letting the wrong hands near an old foundation, costs far more than the job was worth. We will refer you to a Sacramento-area specialist.

Do you appraise rugs?

No. We do not appraise rugs and we do not arrange appraisals. We can usually identify the weave and tell you what a rug is, then point you to someone who appraises.

Can you work on a rug I bought somewhere else?

No. Our finishing services are for rugs bought from Stylish Rugs & Carpets. We do not take in rugs bought elsewhere.

Rug Overlock & Edge Binding in Sacramento

Q: What rug services do you actually provide?

One: overlocking. We bind and finish the edge of a rug in our own Watt Avenue workshop, and only on rugs bought from Stylish Rugs and Carpets. We do not take in rugs bought anywhere else, for any service. We do not wash, clean, repair, reweave, re-fringe, restore or appraise rugs, and we do not arrange any of that through anyone else.

The one service Stylish Rugs & Carpets offers is overlocking: binding a rug’s edge so it cannot fray, done in our own Watt Avenue workshop, on rugs bought from us. We are a rug shop, not a repair or cleaning workshop, and we would rather say so in the first line.

What overlocking is

Overlocking (also called serging or edge binding) wraps the long sides of a rug in a tight, continuous stitch so the edge stays clean and the weave cannot unravel. We bind and finish the edge in our own workshop at 3423 Watt Avenue. That is the entire list of services; there is no second item.

Only on rugs bought from Stylish Rugs & Carpets. We do not take in rugs bought anywhere else, for any service at all.

What we do not do

Repairing holes, tears, seams or worn areas, and reweaving
Fringe repair, re-knotting or replacement
Washing, cleaning or deodorising
Restoration, foundation work and dye correction
Cutting, resizing or joining rugs
Appraisals and valuations

Not in our shop, and not through anyone else on your behalf. We do not broker rug work and we do not make repair or cleaning referrals.

Price and timing

The price depends on the length of edge being bound. Bring the rug in or call and we will give you the price and tell you when it will be ready.

Looking after the edges yourself

Most fringe and edge damage is a vacuum. A beater bar run over a fringe or a bound edge tears it out. Vacuum up to the fringe, never over it, and comb it straight by hand. Our rug care guide covers how to vacuum properly, the first two minutes of a spill, and washing a rug at home without ruining it.
