I'm a carpet cleaner who occassional is asked if I know anyone who can do this type of work when the carpet has irreversible damage. Of course I usually stay away from it. Maybe now, for the right price I'll try it. Thanks for the “how to”.

The blades used in carpet knives are extremely sharp, in fact here we call them suicide knives. Make sure to wear your gloves at all times. Not only will they make the work easier on your hands, but the gloves will protect them as well from sharp blades. The other thing is if the carpet is held down by anything other than glue be extremely careful of nails and staples. Although the kneepads are a little bulky to wear they are great at protecting your knees as you crawl around the carpet. Thanks for a great post!
