Why It Matters

The right pad changes everything

A rug pad is invisible when it works — and impossible to ignore when it doesn't. Here's what a precisely cut, quality pad does for your home.

Safety & Grip

Natural rubber backing locks your rug in place on hardwood, tile, and stone. No sliding, no curling corners, no tripping hazards — for kids, guests, and grandparents alike.

Longer Rug Life

Dense felt absorbs foot traffic instead of letting fibers grind against the hard floor. A proper pad can double the life of a fine rug — and protects your floor's finish, too.

Comfort & Quiet

Feel the difference with every step: plush cushioning underfoot, and serious sound dampening between floors — apartment neighbors will thank you.

The Craft

Not "closest size." Your rug's exact shape.

Big-box pads come in a handful of standard sizes and get trimmed with scissors on your living room floor. We work the other way around: your rug's true outline — including curves, notches, and antique edges that relaxed out of square decades ago — becomes the template.

  • Millimeter-precise cutting — inset one inch from the rug edge so the pad disappears.
  • Honest materials — needle-punched felt and 100% natural rubber. No PVC, ever.
  • Owner-inspected — Aharon Ladin checks every pad before it leaves the workshop.

What our customers say

“We inherited a 9x12 antique Persian Heriz that had been buckling for years no matter how we repositioned it. Aharon came to our brownstone, measured the rug in place, and explained that its edges had relaxed out of square decades ago — something no store-bought pad could ever accommodate. Two days later his custom felt-and-rubber pad arrived, cut to the rug's true outline. The rug now lies perfectly flat, the pile feels noticeably softer underfoot, and our parquet floors are finally protected. This is what real craftsmanship looks like.”

“Our staircase makes two turns and finishes on an L-shaped landing, and every flooring store we visited told us a properly padded runner was impossible. CustomRugPad treated it as a normal Tuesday. Aharon templated each tread and the landing on-site, cut individual pads with a low-profile natural rubber base, and installed everything himself. Eight months on, nothing has shifted a millimeter. The stairs are quieter, safer for our kids, and the runner finally looks like it was made for the house.”

“This is my third order with Aharon over four years, and the attention to detail has never slipped. For our dining room he specifically recommended a thinner, denser felt so the chairs would glide without wobbling on an uneven pile — a consideration no other supplier had ever raised. For the living room he suggested a thicker combination pad for comfort. Each pad arrived rolled, labeled, and cut precisely one inch inside the rug's edge so it disappears completely. There is a reason my whole family now orders from him.”

“Our 12x18 hand-knotted rug sits on a radiant-heated limestone floor — a combination that ruins ordinary pads and, with them, expensive rugs. Aharon sourced a heat-stable, floor-safe material, cut it to follow the curved bay window at one end of the room, and delivered and installed it personally. He even returned a week later to check how the pad was settling over the heating cycle. That level of follow-through simply does not exist in this trade anymore. Worth every penny, twice over.”

“I submitted photos and measurements through the website on a Sunday evening and had a detailed quote — with material options explained in plain English — before noon on Monday. The non-slip pad arrived two days later, cut perfectly for our 8x10 flatweave on polished concrete. That rug used to migrate a foot across the living room every week; it has not moved since installation. Honest pricing, fast turnaround, and a product that does exactly what was promised. I have already recommended them to three neighbors.”
