About Us
Hagopian Rug Restoration is one of the few workrooms in the country to offer specialty handwork, like reweaving, fringe replacement, color restoration and resizing, breathing new life into vintage and heirloom rugs.
Located in the company’s flagship headquarters on 8 Mile Road, Hagopian Rug Restoration also maintains an online shop of restored vintage and antique rugs.
We employ many of the same old-world techniques to preserve and restore any rug: from garage sale “finds” to treasured family heirlooms, even rare antiques, we can help bring them all back to their original splendor.
Hand knotted rugs are incredibly durable, however they are also
vulnerable to that energetic new puppy, hungry moths, aggressive vacuums,
overwatered plants, or just heavy traffic over time.
We can expertly handle all your rug’s restorations needs. We offer a free online inspection and evaluation of your rug(s).
Please fill out a Rug Repair Inquiry Form or Contact us for more information.
