Properly made seams in carpet are not always what?

Properly made seams in carpet are not always invisible. While skilled installers aim to create seams that blend seamlessly with the surrounding carpet, various factors such as carpet texture, pattern, and color can impact the visibility of the seams. Even with expert installation techniques, it is often challenging to achieve a completely invisible seam, especially in textured or patterned carpets where alignment may reveal discrepancies.

In contrast, seams can be made to be durable, ensuring they hold up under foot traffic, and color-matching can be effectively achieved, minimizing the visual difference between seams and the carpet. The goal of any seam operation is to enhance the overall aesthetic of the installation, but invisibility is a high standard that may not always be practical or achievable. Understanding these nuances helps technicians set realistic expectations with clients and maintain a focus on the quality and performance of the installation.
