Rugs aren't usually cheap, especially Turkish rugs with gorgeous patterns that can really pull a lounge or bedroom together. If you've invested in a rug, you'll want to keep it looking as good as new for as long as you can. This can be tricky when rugs are literally walked all over and are very vulnerable to sunlight.

Here's how you can protect your rug from fading:
Once the sun fading has occurred, you do have some options to make it look bright and vibrant again. Sometimes the fibres deep in your rug still have colour, therefore professionals may be able to restore and revive its appearance.
