Why Choose Us for Oriental Rug Cleaning?
-
Heritage & Expertise – With decades of experience in rug care, we have refined methods tailored to the unique fabrics, dyes, and weaves found in fine oriental rugs.
-
Comprehensive Assessment – Each rug is first inspected for fiber content, fringe condition, dye stability, wear areas, and any previous repairs. This ensures your rug’s unique needs are addressed.
-
Zone-Controlled Cleaning Environment – From dusting to washing to drying, our facility uses dedicated zones to avoid cross-contamination, regulate temperature & humidity, and maximize preservation.
-
Safe, Specialized Techniques – We use pH-safe, fiber-specific cleaning formulas that protect your rug’s dyes and structure. No harsh industrial overspray.
-
Hand Finishing & Inspection – After cleaning, your rug receives a final hand-inspection, fringe straightening, edge-repair check, and grooming so it looks its best and will last longer.
Annual Rug Cleaning
Our Cleaning Process – Step by Step
-
Dry Dust & Shake
Your rug is gently dusted to remove embedded dirt and grit that act like sandpaper to rug fibers. -
Pre-Inspection & Testing
Fringe stability, dye bleed potential, and fiber condition are evaluated so we customize the next steps. -
Soak-Wash or Low-Moisture Clean (as appropriate)
Depending on the rug’s material and condition, we either gently soak it using specialized, rinse-rich methods, or apply a low-moisture process to minimize shrinkage and structural stress. -
Rinse & Neutralize
After cleaning, we rinse thoroughly to remove all residue, then apply a neutralizing step to restore fiber pH balance and optimize longevity. -
Precision Drying
Controlled drying—using airflow and humidity control—helps avoid mildew, re-staining, or edge distortion. -
Final Grooming & Inspection
We hand-comb the pile, set the fringe, inspect for missed spots, and finish with a protective fiber rinse if requested. -
Delivery or Pickup
Cleaned rugs are either available for pickup or scheduled for safe delivery back to your home, laid carefully and inspected once more in-home.
What to Expect
What You Can Expect
-
Your rug will look brighter and feel cleaner, while preserving its original dye vibrancy and fiber integrity.
-
We’ll remove the kind of embedded grit, dust, and allergens that shorten the life of high-quality rugs.
-
Your fine rug is treated as a special item—not just another carpet—so you receive personalized attention.
-
Transparent pricing, clear communication, and recommendations for ongoing care make the process easy and stress-free.
Tips for After-Cleaning Care
-
Rotate your rug 180° every 6 – 12 months to even out wear and sunlight exposure.
-
Use rug pads underneath to minimize friction, stabilize the rug, and extend life.
-
Promptly attend to spills—with blotting (not rubbing) and minimal water until professional cleaning is possible.
-
Avoid placing heavy furniture directly on fringe or delicate edges—texture and pile can flatten over time.
-
For high-traffic areas (entryways, dining rooms), schedule a professional cleaning every 2 – 3 years; less trafficked rugs may go 4 – 5 years.
