Seams can separate because of weak seam construction, missing edge sealer, adhesive failure, excessive traffic, moisture, or carpet movement.
The two carpet edges must be cut accurately, sealed when required, and joined with the approved seam system.
Traffic across a poorly positioned seam can increase stress.
Wrinkled carpet or dragging furniture may pull the seam apart.
Repairs may involve reseaming, bonding, patching, or replacing damaged carpet around the joint.
