Default Repairing sunken carpet caused by heavy furniture

Hi,

I recently moved into my new home. As the old owners had moved out
their furniture I could see indents in the carpet where their
furniture had been. The weight of the furniture such as bookcases,
sofas, wardrobes and beds had sunken the furniture.

As the carpet is in perfect condition other than the above problem I
was wondering if anyone had any advice or tips on how to repair the
carpet so it becomes flush with the rest of the carpet once again?

Thanks for your help and advice in advance.

Place ice cubes into the depressions. They will melt and allow the fabric to expand back into the original shape.

Its rather unlikely that he is still waiting for that advice after 13 years.
