Re: Carpet marks....

Hi mate, I'm sure I heard somewhere that putting ice cubes in the area will do the job, can't do any harm try it!
Good Luck

Don't rub hard

Thirded for me

Doesn't always work, but worked about 50% for me when i moved into my house, better than doing nothing. Do it a few times, and move the pile around, work the dents out
