There’s something magical about a rug. It’s not just a piece of decor—it’s a foundation of your space, a canvas of heritage, and often, a memory keeper. At Luxe Rug Care, we’ve spent over 25 years immersed in the world of fine rugs, helping homeowners, designers, and collectors preserve the heart and soul of these woven masterpieces.
If your treasured rug is showing signs of wear, don’t panic. You’re not alone—and you’re in the right place. We specialize in Luxury rug repair and restoration, treating every piece with deep respect and care, as if it were our own family heirloom.
What Makes a Rug Truly Valuable?
Not all rugs are created equal. Some are hand-knotted in the hills of Persia, some are dyed with natural indigo in the souks of Morocco, and some are crafted by modern designers to be the centerpiece of a Manhattan penthouse. But no matter where it comes from, a fine rug brings texture, culture, and personality into a space.
These rugs are more than decor—they’re investments. And like any valuable item, they need care. Over time, even the most exquisite rugs can fray, fade, tear, or suffer accidental damage. That’s where Luxury rug repair and restoration comes in.
Did you know? A properly restored antique rug can last another 50-100 years.
The Art (and Science) of Fine Rug Restoration
Fine Rug Restoration is part craftsmanship, part conservation—and 100% about honoring the original artistry of the rug.
When a rug arrives at our workshop, it’s often tired or damaged, but we don’t see flaws. We see potential. Whether it’s a faded silk Turkish rug or a water-damaged antique runner, we evaluate it piece by piece. No machines. No shortcuts.
Here’s what we focus on:
Hand reweaving: Meticulously matching knots, colors, and patterns.
Edge and fringe restoration: Reinforcing delicate ends to prevent unraveling.
Color revival: Custom dye work to restore vibrancy without overpowering the original.
Damage treatment: Addressing moth bites, mold, tears, and even pet accidents with care.
We’ve seen rugs with burn marks transformed into showpieces again. We’ve restored century-old Persian rugs damaged by decades of foot traffic. When we say "restoration", we mean it in the truest sense—bringing it back to life.
How We Bring Rugs Back to Life: Our Process
We take our time—and that’s intentional. Quality can’t be rushed when it comes to Luxury rug repair and restoration.

We assess your rug’s material, origin, current condition, and any special needs. We also listen to your concerns and stories.
Step 2: Customized Restoration Plan
No two rugs are the same. We develop a plan that respects the rug’s construction and your goals—whether you want a museum-quality restoration or a functional repair.
