Some rugs are more than decoration. They are family heirlooms, antique investments or signature pieces in a project. When they are badly worn, faded or damaged, simple repair or cleaning is not enough.
Our Expert Restoration for All Carpets & Rugs in Lebanon is designed specifically for antique, handmade and high-value rugs that need deeper structural and visual recovery – not just a quick fix.
From our workshop in Lebanon, we restore Persian, Oriental, Turkish, tribal, kilim, wool and silk rugs, working for homeowners, collectors, interior designers, architects, hotels and offices.
Cleaning focuses on hygiene and appearance: washing, stain removal, odour treatment.
Repair focuses on specific local damage: fringe, edges, holes, buckling, moth spots.
Restoration goes further. It is a combination of structural work, visual reconstruction and specialist care aimed at bringing a rug as close as reasonably possible to its original condition, while respecting its age and character.
We restore a wide range of carpets and rugs in Lebanon, including:
Restoration is especially suitable when:
For basic issues like a small hole or a short frayed edge, we usually recommend the Repairing service instead of full Restoration.
Each project is different, but most restorations combine several of the following:
Our philosophy for rug restoration in Lebanon is simple:
We will never promise to “make it brand new” if that is unrealistic or would harm the rug. Instead, we focus on:
You always know what level of result we are working towards before we start.
You can start by sending:
From these, we can usually say whether restoration makes sense and give a rough indication of the level of work required.
For any serious restoration, we need a physical inspection at our workshop (or via arranged transport). During inspection we:
You then receive a clear assessment: what can be done, what cannot, and what level of restoration is recommended.
After assessment, we prepare a detailed proposal, including:
Because restoration is highly individual, there is no fixed price list. Each rug is evaluated on its own condition, complexity and value.
Once you approve the proposal, we begin the agreed work, which may include:
Throughout the project, we follow the principles of conservation, respect and technical accuracy.
When restoration is complete, we:
Depending on your location in Lebanon and the size of the rug, we can arrange pickup and delivery options where available.
with heirloom rugs they want to preserve for future generations.
who invest in antique and handmade pieces.
working on high-end residential or hospitality projects.
with statement rugs in lobbies, suites or lounges.
that have suffered major wear, fading or past damage.
If your rug is important in value or meaning, restoration is often the most appropriate path.
Our restoration workshop serves clients across:
Beirut, Mount Lebanon, Metn, Keserwan, Tripoli, Saida, Tyr, Zahle, Bekaa and more.
Depending on rug size and your location, we can:
Send us your city, rug size and a clear photo, and we’ll guide you to the easiest option.
Rug restoration is more complex and time-intensive than standard repair or cleaning. Costs depend on:
Instead of generic numbers, we prefer to:
We also tell you honestly if restoration cost does not make sense compared to the rug’s value or importance, so you can decide with full clarity.
Specialised, discreet restoration that protects your rug’s value.
We treat every restoration project as a partnership: your rug, our expertise, and a shared goal to keep it alive for as long as possible.

Rug repair focuses on local problems such as damaged fringes, open edges, small holes or buckling so the rug becomes stable and safe again. Rug restoration goes further and is designed for antique, handmade or high-value pieces that need deeper structural, visual and colour work. Restoration may include rebuilding worn areas, reconstructing patterns, correcting distortion and carefully improving faded or uneven colours to bring the rug as close as reasonably possible to its original appearance.
Restoration is usually worth considering when the rug is antique, handmade, high-quality or has strong sentimental value. In these cases, restoring the piece often makes more sense than trying to replace it with a rug of similar level. For low-quality or purely decorative rugs, replacement may be more economical. After inspecting your rug, we explain the condition, the level of work required and whether the restoration cost is reasonable compared to the value and importance of the piece for you.
Yes, we restore antique and very old rugs such as Persian, Oriental, Turkish, tribal and kilim pieces, as well as fine wool and silk rugs. During inspection we study the structure, fibres and previous repairs to decide which conservation and restoration techniques are safe for that specific rug. The goal is to stabilise and improve the piece while respecting its age, character and original weaving style rather than trying to make it look artificially new.
Rug restoration can address a wide range of issues including large worn or threadbare areas, missing or distorted patterns, damaged borders and fringes, previous poor repairs, distortion and waves, as well as certain types of colour fading or mild bleeding. For each rug, we evaluate what is structurally and visually possible and prepare a customised restoration plan. Some extreme damage may only allow for conservation and stabilisation rather than full visual reconstruction, and we explain this clearly before starting.
The cost of rug restoration in Lebanon depends on the type of rug, its size, age, construction complexity, the extent of damage and the level of restoration required. Restoration is more detailed and time-consuming than standard repair or cleaning, so prices are calculated individually for each project. After a detailed inspection, we provide a clear project-based quote that explains the proposed work, the expected result and the total cost before you decide to proceed.
Rug restoration typically takes longer than simple repairs or cleaning because of the level of detail involved. The timeframe depends on rug size, design complexity, damage level and the type of restoration needed. Some projects may be completed in a few weeks, while others with extensive structural and visual work can take longer. After assessing your rug and defining the restoration plan, we give you an estimated schedule before any work begins.
The aim of restoration is to stabilise the rug and significantly improve its appearance while respecting its age and character, not to erase all signs of time. Many rugs can look dramatically better, with clearer patterns, more balanced colours and corrected damage, but a very old or heavily worn piece may still show some signs of age on close inspection. During the assessment, we explain what level of visual result is realistically achievable for your specific rug so you know what to expect.
In some cases, restoration can soften the appearance of faded or slightly bled areas and bring colours back into a more harmonious balance through careful, targeted work. However, the possibilities depend heavily on the type of dyes, the fibres and the history of the rug. Aggressive recolouring is avoided because it can damage the piece or look unnatural. After testing colour stability, we explain what kind of colour and tone correction is safe and realistic for your rug.
Yes, part of the restoration process often involves correcting or replacing previous poor-quality repairs that look obvious, distort the pattern or weaken the structure. When possible, we remove unsuitable additions and rebuild the area using techniques and materials that are more faithful to the original construction of the rug. During the inspection we show you where past work is causing problems and explain how it can be improved as part of the overall restoration plan.
To start, you can send us clear photos of the full rug, close-ups of damaged or worn areas, approximate dimensions, any history you know about the piece and your location in Lebanon. Based on this, we can usually say if restoration is appropriate and give an initial indication of the work required. The next step is a detailed physical inspection at our workshop or via arranged transport, after which we prepare a restoration proposal and quote for you to review before approving the project.
