To properly dye a carpet or rug is an art.
It requires great care and extensive technical training.
Before you engage anyone to touch your carpet or precious rug, you may want to ask them the following questions:
-
- Do they specialise in Carpet and Rug dyeing?
- Do they have Certified Dye Technicians to perform the work?
- What training and credentials do their technicians have?
- Are the dyes guaranteed to be permanent and colourfast for the life of the carpet?
- Will the dyes leave any kind of residue?
- Do they any testimonials for their work?
- Are Materials Safety Data Sheets available for inspection to prove non-toxicity of their solutions?
- Do they use liquid dyes and not powder dyes? (Liquid dyes do not leave a powdery residue behind)
- Are they willing to guarantee that newly dyed carpet will have even coloration?
- Do they provide a written guarantee?
- Can they achieve perfect colour matching?
