What Is Carpet Binding?
Carpet binding is the process of applying a fabric or synthetic tape along the raw edges of a carpet to create a finished border. Binding is a popular alternative to serging and provides a clean, modern look at a more affordable price.
Binding tape is sewn or glued to the edge, covering frayed threads and protecting the carpet from wear — turning leftover or custom-cut carpet into usable, attractive rugs.
Common Applications for Carpet Binding
Area rugs
Hallway runners
Stair runners
Carpet remnants
Basement rugs
Custom-cut pieces for irregular spaces
Whether you're finishing carpet for a single room or outfitting an entire commercial space, binding offers an effective and visually appealing edge solution.

FAQs – Carpet Binding
What’s the difference between binding and serging?
Binding involves sewing or gluing a fabric or tape border along the edge of the carpet. Serging wraps the edge in yarn. Binding is typically more affordable and has a straighter, modern look.
Can you bind carpet remnants?
Yes. Carpet remnants are ideal for binding — you can turn them into area rugs, runners, or mats rather than throwing them out.
Do you cut carpet to size before binding?
Absolutely. We can cut your carpet to any size or shape you need, then bind the edges for a clean finish.
What binding materials do you offer?
We stock cotton and synthetic bindings in a variety of widths and colors, including neutral tones and custom options.
Do you offer binding for commercial carpet?
Yes. We work with property managers, contractors, and retailers to bind carpet for commercial applications.
