Rug Marks

Causes: Many people are shocked when an area rug is moved and there is an outline of the rug on the floor. Luckily there is no need for panic. If you remove the rug completely, the color will blend eventually but it will take awhile. So be patient!! This happens because the sunlight hits one part of the “uncovered” floor and does not reach the floor under the rug.

Solution: This discoloration can be avoided by moving the rug often or by using a finish with a UV block when it is time to refinish.
