An area rug can add softness, protect your flooring, define a larger room, and bring the different elements of your design together. But standard rug sizes do not always work with your furniture or the proportions of your space.
With a custom area rug, you have greater control over the size, color, pattern, texture, and finished appearance. This can be especially helpful for open-concept layouts, larger rooms, dining areas, hallways, and other spaces where an off-the-shelf rug does not provide the right fit.
Our Cut-A-Rug Program allows select carpet styles from Fabrica, Masland, Dixie Home, and Anderson Tuftex to be custom cut to your specific dimensions and finished as an area rug for your home.
Creating your custom area rug is simple:
Select your pattern and color: Choose from more than 2,000 carpet colors and patterns to find a look that complements your space.
Select your binding: Finish your rug with one of three binding styles: fabric edge, serging, or binding.
Receive your custom area rug: We’ll notify you as soon as your finished area rug is ready for pickup, or you can schedule home delivery for added convenience.
Not sure which combination is right for your space? Bring your room measurements, photos, fabric samples, or design ideas to our showroom, and our flooring experts can help you compare your options.
Professional binding gives your custom area rug a clean, finished edge while helping protect the carpet from fraying and everyday wear. Available finishing options allow you to coordinate the edge treatment with the carpet and create a more polished final look.
Our team can explain the binding choices available for your selected carpet and help you choose an option that complements the rug while supporting how it will be used in your home.
Rug size can make a major difference in how balanced and connected a room feels. Before choosing your dimensions, consider the size of the room, furniture placement, and how much of the flooring you want to remain visible.
These measurements are useful starting points, not strict rules. Keep in mind that rug shape matters too — rectangular rugs suit couches, beds, and dining tables, while round or oval rugs soften sharp room lines, making them ideal for reading nooks or round tables. With a custom area rug, you can choose dimensions and shapes based on your room and furniture, rather than being limited to standard sizes.
A rug should complement your home, but it also needs to work for the way you use the space. If you have pets, children, or a frequently used room, our team can help you compare carpet based on stain resistance, durability, pile height, maintenance needs, and other available performance features.
Area rugs can also be used over many types of flooring. They can add softness and definition over tile, luxury vinyl, hardwood, laminate, and even wall-to-wall carpet. The right combination depends on both the rug and the flooring underneath it.
A properly selected rug pad can provide additional cushioning and stability, while helping reduce wear and protect the flooring below. Always choose a rug pad that is compatible with your specific flooring surface and the rug you select.

Vacuum regularly and spot-clean spills promptly. For deeper cleaning, always check the manufacturer’s care instructions first. Some synthetic and washable rugs may allow more convenient cleaning, while wool and specialty rugs may require professional care.
Nylon and polypropylene (olefin) can be practical options for homes with pets because many products offer stain resistance and easier maintenance. Low-pile rugs can also make it easier to vacuum pet hair. Our team can help you compare available materials and performance features for your household.
Yes. Look for a rug designed for the conditions of the space, including options made with synthetic or quick-drying fibers where appropriate. On hard-surface flooring, a compatible non-slip rug pad can also provide additional stability.
Use a properly sized rug pad that is compatible with both your rug and the flooring underneath it. A quality rug pad can help reduce shifting, curling, and bunching, while adding cushioning and helping protect the floor below.
