Common Carpet Problems We Fix
Carpet Burns
Burn marks from cigarettes, irons, fireplaces, or dropped tools are among the most common carpet issues. Small burns can often be repaired using invisible carpet patching techniques instead of replacing the entire room.
Pet Damage
Dogs and cats frequently damage carpet near doors, stairs, corners, and transition areas. We repair torn carpet fibers, scratching damage, chewing damage, and stained sections.
Carpet Ripples & Wrinkles
Loose carpet creates waves, bubbling, and tripping hazards. Professional carpet stretching removes wrinkles permanently and restores a flat surface.
Open Carpet Seams
Carpet seams can separate over time because of traffic, moisture, or improper installation. We reseal and reinforce damaged seams to prevent further separation.
Water Damage
Small water-damaged carpet sections can sometimes be repaired if addressed early before mold or severe padding damage develops.
Carpet Patching Ottawa
Carpet patching is one of the most effective ways to repair localized damage without replacing an entire room. Our technicians carefully remove the damaged section and replace it with matching donor carpet for a clean, blended appearance.
Carpet patching is ideal for:
- Iron burns
- Pet stains
- Bleach spots
- Torn carpet sections
- Entryway damage
- Small flood-damaged areas
When completed properly, many carpet repairs become nearly impossible to notice.
Stair Carpet & Stair Runner Repair
Stair carpets wear down faster than flat flooring because of concentrated foot traffic on stair edges. Loose stair carpet can quickly become both a safety issue and a visual problem.
We repair:
- Loose stair runners
- Torn stair carpet
- Stair edge wear
- Carpet lifting from stairs
- Damaged stair landings
- Wrinkled stair runners
Our stair carpet repair services help restore safety, appearance, and durability while protecting the stairs underneath.
Residential & Commercial Carpet Repair
We provide carpet repair services for:
Residential Properties
- Homes
- Basements
- Condos
- Apartments
- Rental units
Commercial Properties
- Offices
- Hallways
- Apartment buildings
- Retail spaces
- Hotels
- Churches
Commercial carpet repair helps businesses maintain a professional appearance without the cost and downtime of full flooring replacement.
Why Repair Carpet Instead of Replacing It?
Lower Cost
Professional carpet repair is significantly cheaper than installing new carpet throughout the room.
Faster Service
Most carpet repairs can be completed far quicker than full carpet replacement projects.
Extend Carpet Life
Repairing damaged sections helps maximize the lifespan of existing carpet.
Preserve Matching Flooring
Replacing only one room often creates colour and texture mismatches. Repairing the original carpet keeps the flooring consistent.
Our Carpet Repair Process
1. Damage Assessment
We inspect the carpet condition and determine the best repair method.
2. Repair Preparation
Damaged sections are carefully removed, cleaned, or prepared for stretching or patching.
3. Professional Repair
We complete patching, seam repair, stretching, or reinforcement using professional tools and techniques.
4. Final Blending & Inspection
The repaired area is blended into the surrounding carpet and inspected for a clean finished appearance.
Carpet Repair Cost Ottawa
Carpet repair costs depend on:
- Type of damage
- Size of the affected area
- Matching carpet availability
- Stair or hallway repairs
- Stretching requirements
- Commercial vs residential spaces
In many cases, carpet repair saves homeowners and businesses from premature replacement costs.

Professional Carpet Repair Techniques
How we repair carpet
Patch repairs
Best for burns, stains, tears, and damaged sections where the rest of the carpet is still in good condition.
Seam repairs
Best for separated seams, visible joins, and carpet that is pulling apart between sections.
Transition and edge repairs
Best for carpet fraying or pulling loose near tile, hardwood, doorways, and thresholds.
Re-tufting
Best for very small burns, bare spots, or missing fibres where a full patch is not needed.
Carpet stretching referral
Best for wrinkles, ripples, bubbles, and loose carpet. These usually need stretching instead of patching.

Carpet repair FAQs
How much does carpet repair cost in Ottawa?
Most carpet repairs in Ottawa cost $100 to $400. The final price depends on the damage size, repair type, carpet location, carpet age, visibility of the repair area, and whether matching carpet is available.
Can you really make carpet repairs invisible?
Many carpet repairs can be made very hard to see, especially when matching carpet is available. The final result depends on carpet age, colour fading, pile direction, pattern, and where the repair is located.
Where do you get matching carpet for patches?
The best option is leftover carpet from the original installation. If that is not available, we may be able to harvest matching carpet from a closet or another low-visibility area.
Is it worth repairing old carpet?
It depends on the carpet condition. Repair is often worth it for isolated damage, but replacement may be better if the carpet is heavily worn, stained, loose, or damaged in multiple areas.
Can you fix carpet burns?
Yes. We repair carpet burns from irons, candles, cigarettes, fireplaces, heaters, and hot objects. Small burns may be repaired with fibre work, while larger burns usually need patching.
Can you fix pet-damaged carpet?
Yes. We repair many types of pet damage, including scratching, chewing, digging, torn carpet, and damaged sections. If urine has affected the underlay or subfloor, replacement may be recommended.
Can you repair carpet seams?
Yes. We repair loose, separated, or visible carpet seams using professional seaming tools and repair methods.
Can you fix carpet that has bubbles, ripples, or wrinkles?
Bubbles, ripples, buckles, and loose carpet usually need carpet stretching rather than patch repair. If the carpet is damaged as well, we can inspect it and recommend whether carpet stretching, carpet repair, or replacement is the best option. Learn more about carpet stretching in Ottawa.
How long do carpet repairs take?
Many small carpet repairs can be completed the same day. Larger patches, visible-area repairs, or jobs requiring carpet harvesting may take longer.
Will the repair be as durable as the original carpet?
A properly completed repair can be durable, but the result depends on the carpet age, backing condition, damage type, and traffic level in that area.
Do you offer same-day carpet repair?
Same-day carpet repair may be available depending on the schedule, damage type, and location in Ottawa. Sending photos can help us assess the repair faster.
Do you offer carpet repair near me in Ottawa?
Yes. We provide carpet repair across Ottawa, including Kanata, Barrhaven, Orleans, Nepean, Stittsville, Gloucester, Manotick, Riverside South, Centretown, Westboro, Alta Vista, and The Glebe.
