[@madhusasidhar]

Just fixed a 3 feet by 3 feet area using this video! Without this video I wouldn't have completed my project....total cost:: less than $50 including the purchase of steaming iron; thank you so much for publishing this video!!

[@PhuongTran-ow4cp]

$50 that’s great!

[@anthonyseverino8292]

im going to buy this stuff on amazon and then return it when im done :)

This video is over 10 years old, but I gotta say, this video is an excellent how-to that an amateur can follow 👌 even though I am not a professional contractor, this was clear and informative enough to guide my own project using tools and materials I have on hand as a layman DIYer.

[@jorgemarr]

I love how thoroughly you explain everything in these video. Thanks so much.

[@Pat19eighty4]

Probably the best carpet-repair instructional video on youtube, best I've seen so far. I removed a hearth (from disused fireplace) and need to add an additional piece of carpet to cover the area. Will find out about hiring tools to do the job. Thanks for posting.

[@AMesaCarpetCleaner]

Very informative video. You walked through the steps very well. I have been repairing carpet for 15 years and this is the best video to show you how to get the job done. Be careful of those blades!

[@photodoc100]

10 out of 10 instructions. 🇦🇺⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@oldfartdave]

Thanks for the pointers! Saved my son and his malamute from being thrown out of the house by my wife! :) Fixed a 1.5 by 2-foot area the dog shredded. Roll of tape, iron, knife, and roller and it's all good.

[@rubenwhitney2350]

How much did this cost you?

[@camerondavid8089]

Same situation, except our siberian wen through the padding under the carpet. :/

[@ByChiwata]

You are very precise and explain well. I have some bad stains thanks to my dog and I would like to fix it myself...looks hard to do but I know I can.

[@PROJECT_936_dot_NET]

Excellent performance You have inspired me to work on my channel, thanks. 🐼

[@betsykallmeyer5351]

This is an excellent video.

[@thiccycheeze3744]

This helps alot because i dont know how to clean cat litter and a water soaked carpet

[@shawngilbert4900]

Bic pen is good row finder, latex not needed

[@laurelgrace900]

Do you have to do it differently if it’s the edge of a carpet?

[@aslamrazzak3720]

Excellent tell me c an I by tools

[@gammster777]

Do i need the seam cutter and sealer glue??can i just use regular carpet blade and regular really strong glue?

[@steenglish]

gammster777 did you ever find the answer to this please?

[@RoadTripEddie]

Do it right, or you can use inferior /improper tools and products to hack it. (And then...) (Or) call someone that has many years experience in installations AND repairs

[@bril0v395]

What kind of carpet is this it looks so soft is this shag??

[@miriamsolis747]

You can't by any chance use a regular iron? I know the iron won't be any good afterwards because of the glue, but could you?

[@jj45455]

You can from the top, using a wet rag.

[@antonshtuchka2605]

Wonderful work!

[@ksan1648]

Very cool.

[@mattphipps1368]

This seems to be more of a flooring professionals training video rather than a homeowner tip video.

[@bindangvu]

can I ask u what is name of a tape. can I buy from homedepot

[@jmccormick1490]

Home depot sells roberts seam tape

[@navellaalfaro3193]

What is the name of the tape???

[@RoadTripEddie]

You don't use seam sealer on a continuous filament carpet?

[@RoadTripEddie]

Sign of a hack, is not doing things properly, and spreading that incorrect info. = more work for pros like me that charge $85 minimum for the first hour. :-)

[@budfoxrp6194]

Well that is not a continuous filament carpet. Continuous filament carpets are typically berbers and this clearly is a plush. You are obviously a troll and trying to impress people. Please do so on your own Video responses. This carpet is actually a beck dyed, action back and cut pile. We use a latex sealer as recommended by the manufacturer so that edge ravel does not occur. ANY TRUE PROFESSIONAL knows this.

[@RoadTripEddie]

@@budfoxrp6194 not a troll, and i was cri 203 and 205 certified back in 1993, and a shaw claims rep in 2000. Now retired. (As i did at age 40) Well if you used seem sealer then you shouldve showed the others that

[@budfoxrp6194]

@@RoadTripEddie I do in a video installing new carpet. On this repair I did not show it for a couple reasons. I wanted to focus on the proper techniques needed to cut the seams and burn them. Secondly it's used carpet the backing often times is worn and a latex sealer may make way more mess than it will offer protection. And again this is not continuous filament carpet so most professionals may not even use it if they row cut as opposed to straight edge. And yes you are a troll for no reason you out here trying to discredit my video. Do you have your own or something?

[@RoadTripEddie]

@@budfoxrp6194 burn them ? Lol. Im sorry. I dont have the time, i was only trying to help. My own what ?

[@roseb.1537]

It seems that too much carpet was cut out around the small stain.

[@jamesharder5107]

Don't leave iron on high for 30 seconds and weight has to be flat

[@budfoxrp6194]

Typically my iron is on medium until I start. I never recommend going over 2.5 for a novice as it doesn't allow them enough time to make sure all fibers are free and the backing is together. Yes that is a good point, any tray used for weight should be flat. Sorry we didnt mention that

[@jadielalessandrocallechalc7435]

what about berber carpet?

[@jamesharder5107]

Those are the easiest, just measure and cut the rows, only problem is the end of the rolls will have visible seams, just trim exercises

[@budfoxrp6194]

Same process maybe easier as the yard rolls (unless cross stitched) relatively straight when making the cuts.

[@RoadTripEddie]

You work on carpet with your shoes on?

[@budfoxrp6194]

They are special carpet shoes. And yes, imagine how jacked up your socks would be while at work.

[@RoadTripEddie]

@@budfoxrp6194 i did all my installs in socks. Its the minimal cost of doing professional business and separates from the hacks

[@RoadTripEddie]

@@budfoxrp6194 special carpet shoes. Hahaha. Made by orcon or Roberts. Haha Thats the biggest line of bullshit i ever heard (next to the kid that wasn't using a power stretcher, and wrapped an extension cord around his knee kicker. Haha. *You must know you are discrediting yourself when you say things like that* posted from original and previous owner of Floorworks, Green Bay, Wisc, and 5 star flooring Saint Petersburg, Fl, And Shaw warranty claims specialist, until i retired from the industry

[@budfoxrp6194]

My comment about "special carpet shoes" was a joke. It's okay to take some things on the lighter side of life. If you really worked in your socks, I applaud you. I have had to on occasion remove them in a clients home but it is rare.

[@RoadTripEddie]

@@budfoxrp6194 its a repect thing. When any of my customers spent $2k-3k on 100+ yds of product, and another $500 for my day of services installing... Its just respect. Its the ONLY WAY. There is no other way. If i was the client that spent a week or 2 of earnings on producr, to have someone disrespect me like that, i would throw them out of any of my properties, and find a CERTIFIED installer, AKA: A REAL PROFESSIONAL

[@Schlumbucketreturns]

Too much work. Now I'm so sorry I peed on the carpet.

[@kayceew6]

this is so long is there a easier way

[@alexbaughman8063]

How how?

[@gdbrowne85]

shut up and appreciate the knowledge kaycee
