Nashville's growing market has brought significant oriental rug repair demand into Middle Tennessee. Belle Meade and Brentwood homes hold inherited pieces from older markets that often arrive needing serious work after years of foot traffic. Franklin and Hendersonville newer construction tends to have more modern pieces with edge and fringe issues. Both populations need genuine hand-repair — not adhesive shortcuts or machine binding, which damage hand-knotted construction permanently.
Hand-knotted oriental rugs are designed to last for generations — but they are also designed to be repaired. The construction itself is built around the assumption that worn areas, damaged edges, and lost fringe will eventually need attention. The repair techniques used in the great weaving centers of the Middle East and Asia have been refined over centuries, and the same hand methods are still the only way to repair an oriental rug correctly. Anything else — adhesive, stitching shortcuts, machine binding — is immediately visible and reduces the rug's value.

Hand techniques for every type of damage.
Oriental rug damage takes many forms. We have specialized hand techniques for each.
Reweaving
Missing or worn pile rebuilt knot-by-knot using matched wool and the rug's original knot type.
Patching
Holes and tears repaired by inserting matched material into the foundation and re-knotting the pile. Invisible from the front when done correctly.
Selvage & overcasting
The rug's edges wear before anything else. We repair, replace, or fully rebuild selvage cords using traditional hand stitches.
Fringe repair & replacement
Fringe is the structural foundation extending beyond the pile. Damaged fringe is secured, repaired, or replaced — never simply trimmed off.
Foundation repair
When cotton or wool warps and wefts fail, we repair foundation damage before any pile work.
Color touch-up
Faded or sun-bleached areas restored with hand-dyeing methods that match original colors.

Common questions about oriental rug repair in Nashville.
Where in Nashville do you offer oriental rug repair pick-up?
Free pick-up across Nashville, Belle Meade, Brentwood, Franklin, Hendersonville, Mount Juliet, Hermitage, Goodlettsville, and the surrounding Middle Tennessee counties.
What kinds of oriental rug damage can be repaired?
Almost every kind: missing knots, holes and tears, worn edges, damaged fringe, foundation damage, faded color areas, pet damage, moth damage, water damage. The question is rarely whether something can be repaired — it is whether the repair is economically worth the cost.
I just moved to Nashville with a damaged rug. Can you help?
Yes — common request. Many transplant rugs arrive with damage from the move itself, plus pre-existing wear from years in the previous home. We assess all damage during the initial estimate and provide options at different scope levels.
Should I repair my oriental rug or replace it?
For any hand-knotted oriental rug, repair almost always makes more sense than replacement. Even basic hand-knotted construction quality exceeds what is available new at any reasonable price. We give honest assessments in rare cases where repair isn't worth it.
How long does oriental rug repair take?
Minor selvage and fringe work runs two to three weeks. Patching and small reweaving runs four to six weeks. Major reweaving on antique pieces can run two to six months — there is no way to rush hand work without showing in the result.
Available across five metros.
