How to Repair Crushed Carpet
- 1). Brush the carpet fibers in the areas of crushed carpet to help raise them back up, according to Best Carpet Cleaning Guaranteed.
- 2). Steam the damaged areas with an iron. Keep the iron 2 to 3 inches above the carpet; do not touch it. Move the iron away from time to time and brush the fibers upwards with your fingers. For acrylic or mod-acrylic carpet, use a hair dryer set on "warm" instead.
- 3). Keep steaming and brushing until the carpet fibers are repaired, according to Best Carpet Cleaning Guaranteed. Allow the carpet to dry thoroughly before you place furniture in that area.
