Why Area Rugs Curl | by Luvarug.com - the rug cleaning experts in Victoria BC

Описание: Have you ever wondered why area rugs curl?

One of the biggest problems people have with area rugs is the fact that the ends of a rug tends to curl, especially the corners.

Curled area rugs are not only unsightly, they're also a dangerous tripping hazard.

The reasons why area rugs curl depends on many factors such as the the materials used, how the rug was constructed, the kind of traffic it is exposed to and the kind of environment it's in (i.e high humidty).

Many of those factors listed above help explain why a rug would curl on it's own.

However, one of the biggest reasons we come across for why area rugs curl is because they are placed on top of carpet.

As nice as an area rug might look on top of carpet, it does not come without a cost. Because carpet is not a proper foundation under an area rug, when you step on the rug, the carpet fibers will compress which makes a rug move, slip, bunch up, stretch and get deformed.

Once a rug is stretched and deformed, curling is more likely to happen.

Now if you must put an area rug on top of a carpet then you'll want to put a proper thick felt style rug pad under the rug to give it a more stable foundation. A proper rug pad will keep an area rug from slipping, bunching up or moving AND help to keep it from deforming, stretching and then curling.

If you do have a rug that has curled up on you, bring it to Luv-A-Rug and we can easily flatten it for you. Even though there are several "cheap" solutions offered all over the internet to fix a rug that has curled on you - they do not take into consideration why an area rug actually curled in the first place.

If you have an area rug with any sort of value (monetary or sentimental) you would be better off having the rug professionally looked at in case there is an underlying structural problem that should be taken care.
