Hi, any ideas how to solve the problem of carpet dents where there has been heavy furniture on the carpet and its left big dents. Thankyou

my mom used to put an ice cube in the dent, as it melts the pile comes back up, i have absolutely no idea how this works but it does.

lol cant put back the furniture as the room now has to be made into a nursery and not my sons room, so cant do that.xx

We used to tell our customers a peice of ice on the dent let it melt then dry and hover that works
also
You can use a damp cloth and and a hot iron to remove carpet dents. Place the damp cloth over dents and place iron on a few seconds and check. Keep the cloth damp.May take several minutes.

Mr knowall ive tried the ice, theres no change to the dents im affraid

[mrknowall]

[mrknowall]

As im decorating i did notice this where a bed had been if this is the case i doubt anything will work.

[tamirra]

Yeah thats right its the bed marks, so you doubt there`s anything that i can do?

[mrknowall]

No i doubt it tamirra the one's on my carpet looked bad and nothing would got rid of them.
You will have to put a rug or what ever over these dents.

I had a huge metal framed sofa that dented the lounge med. pile carpet it is the cold not just the moisture that does the job - so I put a thin sheet of polythene a huge amount of ice ( all along the six foot grove ) on the top topped with bounty to collect water when it melted (I knotted the dust sheet to keep all water in it.) . Went out for half an hour, then lifted the lot got a couple of ice cubes and rubbed in the groves to raise the pile using a nail brush to help worked a treat!
