Dear Pappy

I am buying a 10×13 nylon rug for a 11×12 foot room. The room also has a door set diagonally on one corner. I would like the rug cut to fit the room wit a color matching border. Doable?

Dear Doable

It would not a problem augmenting your pre-made 10×13 rug to fit your 11×12 room with the diagonal door but I do need more information. First: “how much of the floor do you want to cover with the rug”? Second: “does the door open into the room and, if so, is there enough clearance under your door for the rug”? Third: “what border material do you want to use”? If you will contact me through our email system with your answers I can be more specific.

 P.S. A word to the wise, many pre-made rugs that say they are a certain size are typically not. For example, 10×13 rugs are usually about 9.8×12.8.
