This was an advertisement we placed in the Oak Bay News and here is what one reader wrote back to us about it...

Dear Dusty and rug team,

 Just wanted to say that your full page ad in the Oak Bay News the other week, was both  hilarious and informative.  Good on you for coming up with a funny and self-deprecating retro ad.  Love it.

We also love that you tackle so many things (horse blankets!) - and clean rugs for charities like WIN (for which I volunteer).  We had you clean our colourful middle eastern runner a couple of years ago - one that our aged dog shed many hairs and had a couple of accidents on.  You did a terrific job, returning it with the colours brighter than we've ever seen them.

 So this is just a thank you for running a good and ethical business  and giving back to the community by thinking about the big picture as well.

Cheers,
Heather M.

From frayed fringes to chewed up edges, we've got your back, or should I say, your rug's back! Prepare to witness the magic as Luv-A-Rug turns worn-out antique rugs into sparkling masterpieces.

Luv-A-Rug's Area Rug Repair:
The Gateway to Rug Nirvana

Let's face it, even the most stunning rugs can't defy the cruel hands of time. Just like you can't expect your favorite car to cruise through 100,000 miles without some regular TLC, rugs also need a little tender loving care to stand the test of time.

But if disaster strikes, we can handle that too!

Remember, no rug is immune to the whims of fate. Whether it's a machine-made marvel or a hand-knotted wonder, we'll be your trusty rug advisors, guiding you through the confusing path of repairs. 

Now, there may be instances where the cost of fixing your rug outweighs its value, but fear not, my friends! We're here to assist with minor repairs and even major restoration projects. Just shoot us text to (778) 533-7847 with photos of your rugs in distress, and our resident expert rug whisperer (Dusty Roberts) will come to the rescue.
