I've tried fixing this a couple of times in the past. Tried 'shaving' or snipping it down to a level where the burnt bit was gone etc. Doesn't work. Even when you get it perfect, it stands out a mile.

Best tactic was finding a bit of spare carpet luckily left from when I got it, and *very* carefully cutting a bit that matched the 'grain' for the damaged bit then getting a bit thin lino or whatever and putting a 30cm patch under the carpet stuck on with spray adhesive. Then sticking the iron-shaped patch in the hole. Then dirty it up and clean it again! It worked ok as long as it's not a high-traffic area.

Otherwise, how do you feel about rugs?
