Professional Oriental & Area Rug Cleaning

The area rug cleaning process we use involves thorough and comprehensive stages.

First rugs are separated based on being hand made or machine made. Hand made area rugs generally are more sensitive requiring additional care in handling and cleaning.

Then we remove as much dust and dirt as possible from the rug.

Rugs are then tested for color fastness. If the colors bleed we have to use special methods like dry cleaning or extraction to leave the least amount of water as possible on the rug

We check to see if there are areas on the area rug that are heavily soiled or if stain ares on the rug. If so, we pre-treat the area. Please understand that some stains like some pet stains may not be removed as they have permanently changed the colors of the wool.

If the rug smells and and has pet odor we neutralize the odor. This will eliminate the odor.

Rugs are then washed with different methods depending on the type, age, color fastness, thickness. In brief some methods we use include complete soaking and submersion in water, low moisture extraction, dry cleaning, jet spray and extraction or a combination of methods. Fringes are treated separately to prevent damage.

To protect your investment and for your rug to last generation after generation, please call us to schedule a pick-up or for more information.
