How To Keep Rugs from Sliding

Rugs are a great way to make your home more comfortable and add personality to your space. But when placed on wood floors or tile (such as in a bathroom, kitchen, or hallway), rugs can easily slide around. To keep your rugs from sliding, we recommend using a rug pad.

Benefits of a Rug Pad

Rug pads are the ideal solution for providing grip to your favorite rugs while keeping them safe on those slippery surfaces. A rug pad has numerous benefits, including:

Rug pads prevent rugs from moving around

The rubber material enables them to latch onto hard surfaces, preventing them from moving around under your feet. This also makes your house safer.

Easier to clean

Rug pads make it much easier to clean your rug, for a few reasons. First, the grip from the pad will hold your rug in place so you can quickly vacuum it. Second, rug pads help keep dirt more contained in one area rather than spreading around on your floor.

Adds comfort

Rug pads provide extra cushioning to your rugs (and therefore your feet and back!). This is especially helpful for kitchen rugs, where you might spend more time standing in one place while preparing meals.

Rug pads are long lasting

Rug pads are built to last for years and maintain their durability. Plus, they help your rugs last longer, too, since they add protection.

Easy to hide

Unlike rug tape or silicone caulk, you can easily trim rug pads so they fit perfectly underneath your rugs. This enables them to provide the extra grip you need to keep your rug in place without taking away from the overall aesthetic.

Affordable

You can purchase a rug pad with Revival for less than $100! We also offer payment plans through Affirm.

You might have read about other options, such as using rug tape or silicone caulk, but these alternatives damage both the rug and your floors, and are ultimately ineffective. And because they don’t last very long, you end up spending more money than needed to prevent your rug from slipping and sliding.
