If a ready-made rug is too wide or too short for the space, custom dimensions let you choose where it begins and ends. At the home visit, we measure with your furniture layout and the floor you want to leave exposed in view. We confirm the finished width and length before the carpet is cut.
01
Living and dining rooms that need a non-standard rug size
02
Bedrooms where the furniture layout sets the dimensions
Choose carpet at home or use material you already have
We bring physical sample books to the home appointment so you can compare carpet beside your furniture and floor.
If you already have carpet, we review its suitability and the amount available against the rug dimensions before confirming the project.
We confirm cutting, binding, and any optional rug pad as part of the project. DMV Stair Runners performs its own binding.
The finished width and length affect how much carpet the rug needs.
The price depends on whether we supply the carpet or you bring your own.
The rug's shape determines how many feet of exposed edge need binding.
We confirm the binding finish with the carpet selected for your rug.
The quote includes any measuring or installation work agreed for the job.
Timing
Complete-rug timing depends on material and final dimensions. The binding work normally takes one day after the material, dimensions, finish, and handoff arrangements are confirmed; pickup and delivery dates are separate.
DMV Stair Runners cuts selected or customer-supplied carpet to the finished dimensions confirmed for your room, then binds the exposed perimeter.
02Can a carpet remnant become an area rug?+
Yes, when its condition suits the project and there is enough usable material. We compare the remnant's width and length in feet with the dimensions of the rug you want.
03Do custom area rugs get attached to the floor?+
Usually no, because the finished rug stays movable. At the home appointment, we look at the floor, rug size, and how you will use it to decide whether a pad belongs underneath.
