FAQs
How do I get my new rug to lie flat?
After unpacking, gently reverse-roll the rug. Then, lay it flat at room temperature for 24 hours. This process helps the fibers relax and the rug to settle smoothly.
Is this rug suitable for high-traffic areas?
Yes, absolutely. The Homemaker Maestro Berber Rug is made from hard-wearing polypropylene pile, specifically designed for durability and is perfect for high-traffic areas like living rooms and hallways.
How do I clean spills on the rug?
For liquid spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry, white cloth. Avoid rubbing. For tougher stains, you can test a carpet shampoo on a small, hidden area first, then apply carefully to the stain without over-wetting the rug.
Do I need a rug grip for this rug?
If placing the rug on polished surfaces or hard floors, a rug grip is strongly recommended. This prevents the rug from slipping and moving, enhancing safety.
What material is the rug made from?
The pile is made from 100% Polypropylene, and the backing is 100% Jute.
Can I use this rug near a fireplace?
No, this rug is NOT SUITABLE FOR USE NEAR OPEN FIRES. Please keep it away from all sources of ignition for safety.
Will the rug fade over time?
No, the rug is designed to be colourfast and will not fade, ensuring it maintains its appearance even with regular use.
Troubleshooting
Rug does not lie flat after unpacking.
This is common after packaging. Gently reverse-roll the rug, then lay it flat at room temperature for 24 hours. The pile should relax and settle.
Rug is slipping or moving on hard floors.
A rug grip is highly recommended for use on polished surfaces or hard floors. This will secure the rug in place and prevent movement.
A liquid spill has occurred on the rug.
Blot the spill immediately with a clean, dry, white cloth. Do not rub the spill, as this can spread it and push it deeper into the fibers. For persistent stains, test a carpet shampoo on an inconspicuous area first, then carefully clean the spot without over-wetting the rug.
The rug appears dull or matted.
Regular gentle vacuuming with a floor tool attachment will help restore the pile. Occasionally shaking the rug (if size permits) can also refresh its appearance and remove accumulated debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup Instructions
- Unpack and Unroll: Carefully remove the rug from its packaging.
- Reverse-Roll (Initial Set-up): If the rug has creases or doesn't lie flat immediately, gently reverse-roll it. This helps to counteract the effects of packaging.
- Allow to Settle: Lay the rug flat at room temperature for 24 hours. This allows the pile to relax and flatten completely.
Compatibility
- Flooring: Suitable for most flooring types. When placing on polished surfaces or hard floors, it is *highly recommended* to use a rug grip to reduce movement and prevent slipping. Lay on a dry floor only.
- Placement: Versatile for any area of the home, including high-traffic spaces like living rooms, dining rooms, hallways, and bedrooms.
- Safety Warning: NOT SUITABLE FOR USE NEAR OPEN FIRES. KEEP AWAY FROM SOURCES OF IGNITION.
Care & Maintenance
- Vacuuming: Gently vacuum the rug regularly using a floor tool attachment. Avoid using a beater bar, as this can damage the pile over time. Vacuuming helps to restore the pile and maintain its appearance.
- Shaking: Occasionally shake the rug (if size permits) to help restore the pile and remove loose debris.
- Spills: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry, white cloth. Do not rub, as this can spread the stain.
- Deep Cleaning: For surface shampooing, test the carpet shampoo on an inconspicuous area first. Apply shampoo sparingly, ensuring the rug does not get too wet to prevent damage to the backing or floor underneath. Allow to dry thoroughly.
