There's almost never enough money in carpet to installation to consider perfect seam work productive.. If you're on your own doing repair, with zero tolerance on moving furniture.. probably worth it, especially if you're seaming with the microwave lol
Could you ask him for the names of the glues he's uses, and then post it here? How are we to do this if we don't know the glue name. Even just one of the names would be great. I know he said latex glue, but there are probably 10 different types. And I saw him use two different glues in this video.
I was at work two days thinking to myself how they could possibly repair the rug so well. Nothing was said out loud and yet this video joins my recommended. This is either a simulation or the algorithm can read your mind.
I'm a recovering carpet installer. This guy is good. I have done some tough repairs over the years and I'd much rather install a new piece rather than patch some of the gross, nasty, slimy damaged carpets that I've seen in my day.
When I accidentally murdered my wife for the insurance money, this is the guy I called. He also told me, replacing the whole carpet would raise suspicions.
I'd understand with real wood, but carpet is cheap. That zapper is more expensive then most 150 sq. ft sections of carpet, but he's making money with it.
I was a carpet guy for ages. Showed up to repair a 'burn hole'. The hole was the shape of a clothes iron, through the carpet, though the pad, and the plywood floor was scorched. It seems the family was going on a road trip and as they were about to reverse out the driveway Dad remembered his sunglasses. Ran back in the house, smelled smoke, and found the iron. Dad told me the last thing the three year old did before getting in the car was plugging in the iron and putting it on the floor. If Dad hadn't run in for his sunglasses the house would have burned down. I cut out the burn hole and suggested he save that burned scrap for a few years until Jr asks to borrow the car for the first time....
My late friend did this and furniture repairs. He would resew the new strends into a new backer. Melt the patch in, then trim it to length with this crazy suck-cut machine that looked like a belt sander. Was amazed how good it looked when finished. For furniture arms. He would take the whole thing apart by unstitching the fabric. Use cardboard and foam to beef up the armrest then restitched it. Sometime he would take the fabric off the back of the chair and use it to replace the old worn fabric. So cool watching him.
Man I thought it was some complex process but they just slap some glue on it and jam it into the floor. Basically what I do when I'm working on my costume.
Yeah, it’s not like he stitched anything. I’ve seen way better carpet repair techniques and art on UA-cam. Anyone can glue anything on. Basically, buy a matching carpet and stick it in.
Lol y'all have zero experience.. consider the subfloor, pattern in the carpet, and the direction it runs. Also good luck making it look anything but terrible without straight cuts, the "zapper" is litterally melting glue. If you mess up, you'll ruin the rest of your carpet. Thickness in the padding, does the carpet need reatretchi g first?? This guy is a pro, y'all are not. Of course it looks easy.. Morons
@@X44J7 This is literally the industry standard. Why over complicate anything. If you don't glue the edges to that 4 corner patch the vacuum rotor will suck up the Berber row and unravel it like a sweater.
@@TheSonofabiscuit every stupid people ever. They watch something done easily and thought they can do it easily as well. If anyone can just glue a piece of carpet then there won't be professional carpet repairers
For the people saying that it looks easy trust me it is not. He makes it look easy because he's good at what he does and he has been doing it for a long time. It takes awhile to get good with a carpet blade to cut straight lines. The short pyle carpet that he repaired in this video is some of the most difficult because it is very difficult to hide flaws if you make any.
That's bloody awesome, just put new carpet in house, guna store the off cuts in a vacuum bag just in case. Thanks for the vid pal, never thought of that, even though I've done the same thing in drywall.
If you ever stain the carpet, use mineral spirits on the cut offs and rub into the stain.. it transfers the dye from the cutoff to the stain, covers it up. Every now and then someone bleeds on the new carpet while installing it from a cut. This is how they cover it up
Wow. That's really nice work. If l weren't in New Zealand, I'd be on the phone to you already. Carpet beetle has absolutely decimated my pure wool carpet. Gutted!
You know what's even better. Not placing ugly ass carpet and getting a good looking wood floor and actual stylish floor rugs. There's literally no damn reason to cover a whole damn floor in this garbage.
I burnt a hole in my carpet at the last apt I lived at and I did this same exact process. Unfortunately there wasn’t much info about how to do it so I went out on a whim and I guess I did it right ! I repaired it and it was hardly noticeable and the company didn’t charge me either !
May I ask how you would fix a small hole in a stair runner? The runner has been fitted with stair rods and brackets, it has not been glued onto the stairs. How would you do that?
I am from Spain. And it is very curious that here we do not have carpet on the floor in all the house like in eeuu or other countries. I think is very complicated to clean and requires a lot of work and effort to make it look clean and clear. Most of the time i think is looking dirty. Maybe am i wrong? Here we normally have wood laminated floor. “Tarima flotante” in spanish.
I like to place the Patch over the hole and do my Cut Out so they match exactly. If you do it that way, you have to be sure to pull back the Tuft so you are only cutting the Backing.
Not sure why YT recommended this video to me, lol....we just replaced all our carpet with vinyl plank.....my goodness it's so much nicer than nasty azz carpet. That stuff just acts as a sponge for filth, dead skin cells, pollen, mud, pet dander.......so much cleaner and happier with vinyl! Carpet seems like a bad dream now. It's like wiping your feet on a towel or soft mat...it feels good, but at least you can clean the towel or small mat...the carpet never gets cleaned thoroughly enough. I used to shampoo it regularly and stains would come back....when we removed it there was a layer of dirt underneath. Our air is now much cleaner and you can breathe better.
Interesting... We have a hole in our carpet where the seams come together. I put a runner over it lol. I never thought about repairing it, but we do have a remnant in the basement.
I do this for a living: trust me the video is much more interesting than real life. Left out of video, re gluing the cpt to the floor when it’s a padless installation
Saw someone commenting about putting furniture over the hole. Reminded the time when my family sold an apartment. But we made a hole on the bedroom door. So my mom hanged a calendar over. But the funny thing is that. The hole is only 2 feet (60~70cm) above ground. So the calendar is only up to your knees XDD
If anything is presented by making a high quality video/presentation, then how much interesting it becomes

@@TheSonofabiscuit My strategy is to not own carpet. It's a dust, dirt, mushroom and insect trap.
Such a coincidence to see Josh, he’s local to me. A couple of years ago he repaired my carpet flawlessly
Floorlessly

Law of attraction
@@KC08RAS lmfao
Patch with a new piece, revolutionary!
I thought we were going to see him weave and dye a replacement patch.
Reality : "I'm sorry sir, we don't have this type of fabric".
He said he takes what he needs from somewhere else in the house such as the closet
Nggih
@@chriskevini r/wooosh
Yeah he uses the carpet that is in the most unseen places of the house
@@sequoiapheroza with that logic, why not just make the damage carpet unseen like put something over it.
Don't worry, he got the hole thing covered.

@@Dogeyboy I've been lucky so far.

How much was it for the money, asking for a person
Recently, Josh flawlessly repaired two areas of carpet in my home. The man is an absolute master, people.
It’s so refreshing to see someone repairing something instead of just throwing it away and getting a new one!.

He takes it from another place in yhe house where it can't be seen, like a closet or something.

I know how to fix that, just put furniture over it and voilà, you're done!
What if the hole is in the middle of the room. You’re not gonna put a bed stand in the middle of your living room. That’s just plain weird

Moral of the story
Always keep some extra carpet whenever you get the entire house done
Thank me later 😂😂
I tossed mine out, boy do l regret it. Nothing has happened yet but it could.
Yeah but used carpet will still look different than the new one that you have saved. How are you gonna match the two?
@@fidato_ you take a used carpet part from the closet and put it there, the new one goes to the closet.

"How professionals fix carpet"

Wow I would've never guessed.
Thank you, so so much. This really will help me this week. Always be hustling.

I should do one of these on how I patch and paint holes in walls!
Satisfying at its finest.

I do do commercial flooring and one of the reasons I love installing carpet is because all mistakes are fixable.. try that with sheet vinyl!

A man of culture you are good sir
Holly g, that is marvelous satisfying job you have there
That one couple in that one TLC show really needed you back there.
Not bad dude. Thanx for the demo...☘️🇺🇸
This should be super easy as long as you have the "donor material" for all of your carpets.
I always keep off cuts when I get new carpets fitted just for these eventualities.
Didn't even know this was possible. Glad this randomly popped up today
but can never find a professional that mends broken holes in hearts 👈🏻😉👈🏻
This is how every carpet place does it. Not just him. He was trained by someone and so were they. Many people do this.
This guy is super into carpets.
From where do u get the specific material for the damaged part of carpet ?
When a carpet is fitted there are always off cuts. Just store them in case something happens.
This guy is like Steve Jobs for carpets.
This is a good worker.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video! Thank you!
Really good work.
Someone who cares.
Someone who makes a living doing repair.. don't get confused lol

'Seamlessly' cracked me up 🤣
What items should we need to do this? Like what kind of glue? Foam insulation.
Will this technique still work for me if I dont have carpet?
Yeah, you'll just have a patch of carpet in the middle of your floor.
@@istolethispfpsorry485 Thank you. Ill try it tomorrow
Actually yes if you're referring to linoleum sheet, I used to patch holes in bars from falling beer bottles.
