Hi all i burnt the carpet and if our landlord see's it i am done for, is there anything i could do to make it look better,thanks
kiss your deposit good bye
if you can cut the burnt part out.
If it's only the very top part of the nap in the carpet, you can try snipping off the burned parts. Trim around the area somewhat as well, so the snipped dip in the carpet isn't as obvious. If it's too deep to cut, but only a small area (smaller than a quarter) and/or out of the usual area, you can try painting it over. Match the color, paint the spot, and then clear-paint it over to seal it. If it's bigger than that AND deep, um , area rug?
Snip the burnt area with scissors (just the fibers). Find an area of rug (under a couch or better, in a dark corner)trim an area about the size of the burn and glue the unburned fibers with a household glue to the cleaned burned area. Actually, cut out from your closet a small piece of carpet pad, get a carpet floor adhesive from your nearest Home Depot. Use small spatula apply glue on floor,on pad, and set carpet on top it. (:
