Patch Repair & Re-stretch

The Brief

A Remuera homeowner noticed their carpet behind a piece of furniture had discoloured after water damage. On inspection, the carpet in the room had also loosened over time and needed restretching to sit properly again.

The Problem

The section of carpet behind the furniture had visibly discoloured from water damage, and simply cleaning it wasn’t going to fix the underlying issue. On top of that, the carpet across the room had loosened, creating ripples that needed to be pulled tight again for both appearance and safety.

Our Solution

We combined a patch repair with a full re-stretch to fix both issues in the one visit:

  • Uplifted the carpet from the water-damaged area behind the furniture
  • Sourced a matching offcut from a carpet stored in a cupboard elsewhere in the home to use as the patch
  • Cut and fitted the patch into the affected area for a seamless match
  • Re-stretched the carpet across the room so it sat tight and ripple-free again
  • Replaced the carpet taken from the cupboard with a generic piece we supplied, so the homeowner still had a spare on hand
  • Cleaned and vacuumed the finished area

The Result

The water-damaged patch is now invisible, matched from the homeowner’s own carpet stock, and the room sits flat and tight after the re-stretch. The homeowner also came away with a fresh spare piece in their cupboard for any future repairs.
