Rugs, Carpets and Carpeting - bleach stain

My daughter accidentally spilled bleach on the living room carpet. To cut a long story short, is there any way that I can cut out the bleached area (approx 1 foot sqare) and patch it in with a 'good' piece without it looking too bad? (it's in a fairly prominent area of the room) If so, can anyone give me advise or point me towards a web site which might help. As luck would have it, we happen to have a left over piece of carpeting which I could use. The carpet is your usual standard type, light beige in color. Any help or advise will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Although I personally have never used it, they maybe able to help you.

Report back if you decide to use it. I'd like to know from a real consumer, just how good it does work!!

I may be able to add it to my arsenal.

Patching even by a professional is challenging!!
If you put a brand new piece in a high traffic area of the room, it will stick out like a swore thumb, for a time.

Use a inkless(used up) ball point pin. Run it throught the rows running the length and the width of your patch, making a square. Using a cushion-back cutter, Slide it into your rows and cut out the square, being sure not to cut any face yarns. Now do the same with your remnant Making it the exact same size as the piece you cut out, by switching the side of the cushion cutter, that the blade is cutting from and making sure the grain is running the same direction.

Now line the square under the carpet where the patch will be, with hot melt seaming tape. Using a seaming iron set on 2.5(250º) place the iron on the seamtape. Have your patch ready with the grain going the right way. Let the iron sit for 10-15 seconds, and push it to the next piece of tape. (the bigger the patch the easier, for the irons sake) Line the corners up and push it into the hot melt. The tape should be in the middle of the seam, so both sides get equal grab. Then weight it completely with something real heavy and flat, like a thick phone book, and place your knee on it for extra weight.

Work your way around the square, making sure no face yarns get trapped into the seam and hotmelt glue. Getting thiron out on that last corner is a burger!

Good luck!

Another option is to consult with a carpet cleaning professional who also specializes in dyeing carpets.
