Hi,
I have just moved some furniture around and there are dents in the carpet where the furniture used to stand. Can anyone give any advice on how to remove these dents? Thanks TS |

A helpful D&K book we have with lots of hints + tips for these sorts of things suggests putting an ice cube into the hole and letting it melt... not tried it myself. David |

I didn't believe this one until I tried it myself on a new carpet. We have a really heavy bed and it made very deep dents in the carpet. The water trick sorted it out!! Jo |

Saw one of those 'Trade Secrets' short programmes on TV the other day, and one woman recommended putting an icecube on the dent, leave it until it melts away. Worth a try. Andy. |

Si Sorry Mungo, My service provider seems to miss out a random selection of replies so I am never sure that I've seen all the replies or that I'm not duplicating a response. Perhaps I should get a bette service provider ( I'm with Onetel ), Andy. |
