Expert Area Rug Cleaning

Our ‘Rug Spa’ treatment begins with an accurate identification of fabric type and construction. If the fabric isn’t readily known (it usually is), it undergoes testing to identify what it is. You may be surprised to learn that 80% of the soiling in rugs is usually dry soil. So if you start the cleaning process by getting the rug wet, the soil turns into mud and becomes more difficult to remove. Instead, our process starts with an extensive dusting.

Once front and back dusting is done, a very thorough front and back vacuuming follows. Then, depending on fiber type and construction, the rug is submerged, shampooed, rinsed and placed in a centrifuge to dry rapidly and safely. When almost dry, it’s laid out to reset the nap, then hung to dry completely. Once dry, it gets one more vacuuming and is then wrapped in plastic for easy transport back to you.
