Cat Carpet Repair

If your cat has caused a larger area of damage you will need first to strengthen the area using a leather binder then fix the scratches using a leather repair kit and finally restore the color using a leather colorant kit.

Cat carpet repair.

Carpet tape is available in double sided and single sided versions. Use a sharp carpet knife to remove the damaged section in one piece. Be sure all staples or nails are pushed into the structure completely to avoid snagging or scratching your cat. Repair this damage with hot melt tape.

Starting from one side of the loose section use the knee kick tool to ease the carpet edge over the tack strip pushing the carpet down onto the tack strip with your hands as you move from one. We use cutting edge carpet repair techniques such as retufting and abrading to repair all sorts of damage to carpets and rugs. The single sided type generally works best for this type of repair peel the backing away from the adhesive side of the tape and carefully insert the piece into the cut out area smoothing it flat from below so that it sticks firmly to the carpet backing around the perimeter of the opening. There may be a seam almost anywhere on stair carpet.

We can either use spare carpet to replace the damaged area or restore the fibres individually. Attach the material to the cat tree. Cat urine will never stop stinking until you replace the carpet and pad. When a dog urinates on a carpet you can often have the carpet cleaned and just replace the padding.

Use the old piece as a template when cutting the new piece of carpeting. If cats continuously tug on a single area the seam can pull loose causing a flap or split. Use carpet from an inconspicuous place in your home or from a leftover roll. Use a nail gun to nail the new carpet into place on the cat tree.

When a cat urinates on a carpet you have no choice but to cut the urine stain out along with the padding and clean the floor below it. The binder helps to strengthen the area that was damaged the repair kit helps cover the scratch marks and the colorant restores the full luster of your couch.
