Custom Area Rugs in Austin, TX — Natural Fibers, Any Size, Made for Your Space
Can't find a rug that fits your room or matches your vision? At CDC Carpets in Westlake Hills, we build it from scratch. We cut any natural fiber carpet to your exact dimensions, in any shape, and finish it with a custom binding that gives it a clean, polished edge. The result is a one-of-a-kind piece — wool, silk, sisal, seagrass, or cashmere — crafted specifically for your home. No synthetics, ever.
What Makes a Custom Rug Different
Every room is different. Standard rug sizes rarely fit odd-shaped rooms, open floor plans, or the exact dimensions of a dining table, living area, or foyer. A custom area rug solves this instantly:
- ✓Any size — from a small accent piece to a room-filling statement
- ✓Any shape — rectangle, square, round, runner, or custom cut
- ✓Any natural fiber — choose from our curated selection of wool, silk, sisal, seagrass, jute, and cashmere
- ✓Any binding finish — traditional tape binding, serging, fringe, or color-matched border
Because we work exclusively with natural and luxury fibers, every custom rug we produce is a genuine heirloom-quality piece — not something you'll replace in five years.

Binding Styles
The binding is what gives a custom rug its finished look. We offer four options:
Traditional Tape Binding
A folded fabric tape is stitched along the cut edge, creating a clean, subtle border. Available in dozens of colors to match or contrast your fiber. The most popular choice for natural fiber rugs.
Serging
A yarn is looped tightly around the edge of the rug, creating a thick, visible border with a hand-crafted look. Particularly beautiful on wool and cashmere rugs. Available in colors to complement your fiber.
Fringe
Natural or coordinating fringe is added along the short ends of the rug, lending a traditional or artisan appearance. A perfect match for Persian-style and hand-loom natural fiber rugs.
Color Binding
A contrasting or complementary binding color is chosen to act as a design detail — a bold border that frames the rug like a work of art. A great option for modern or transitional interiors.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to make a custom area rug?
Most custom area rugs are completed within 1–2 weeks, depending on fiber availability and binding complexity. Rush options may be available — ask during your consultation.
How much does a custom area rug cost in Austin?
Cost depends on fiber type, size, and binding style. Natural fiber rugs in wool or sisal typically start lower than silk or cashmere options. Contact us or request a quote online for an accurate estimate for your specific project.
Can you make a custom rug in an unusual shape?
Yes. We can cut to rectangles, squares, runners, rounds, and custom shapes to fit unusual rooms, staircases, or architectural details.
What is the difference between serging and tape binding?
Tape binding uses a folded fabric stitched to the edge — clean and subtle. Serging wraps yarn around the edge — thicker and more visible with a handcrafted look. Both are durable. We'll show you samples at your consultation.
Do you offer natural fiber rugs that are pet-friendly?
Wool and sisal are both excellent choices for homes with pets. Wool is naturally stain-resistant and durable. Sisal is extremely tough and holds up well in high-traffic areas. We'll help you find the right balance of beauty and practicality.
