{"ai_json_enabled":true,"answer":"Shag\u2011style pile remains a recognised carpet style, and custom area rugs are possible in many workshops. Current availability, pile constructions and the feasibility of a specific 4 m \u00d7 5 m rug must be confirmed with suppliers, as sizes, lead times and finishing options vary. Considerations for shag rugs include pile height (affecting vacuuming and furniture stability), backing and edge finishes such as binding or serging. Some carpet ranges are available in wider formats, which can reduce joins; current widths vary by product and should be confirmed. For samples, construction options and a current quote, contact BCC at Unit 3/46 Bay Rd, Taren Point, NSW, or visit the showroom via your preferred map service.","answer_source":"legacy_bcc_quality_reviewed","category":"Wide Carpets, Rugs & Custom Sizes","category_slug":"wide-carpets-rugs-custom-sizes","confidence":"legacy_question_current_safe_answer","date_note":"Exact individual question timestamp was not present in the saved legacy Q&A page.","date_precision":"archive_page_not_individual_question","date_published":"","date_source":"legacy_wordpress_archive_page_metadata","editor_images":[],"editor_videos":[],"freshness_warning":"Products, prices, stock, opening hours and installation timing can change.
