Frequently Asked Questions

Q:  Can Oriental or specialty rugs be used over my wall-to-wall carpet?
 
A:  Yes, they can. We recommend that you invest in a high quality pad (underlayment) designed to keep the rug flat and securely in place for appearance and safety. Be aware that, even with a good pad, your rug may tend to ripple or "walk" across the carpet if your wall-to-wall carpet is too plush and/or if your rug has heavy furniture on it. Also test your pad for colorfastness by rubbing the pad surface with a damp cloth before placing the pad between the carpeting and the area rug.
