How Do We Clean Rugs?

​

The first step is to quantify if the rug needs routine cleaning or more aggressive two step restorative process.

 

We are professional rug and textile cleaners. Part of being professionals is recognizing that the usual one-size-fits-all approach with rug cleaning is a sure recipe for failure even before starting.

 

Because all rugs are not constructed the same, they CANNOT all be cleaned the same. What works great on tufted wool rugs could easily ruin hand-knotted Persian, weave, or knitted wool rugs! 

 

We always perform an inspection on each rug to check for weaknesses, dye stability, or other damage and

design a cleaning plan based on several factors: How the rug is constructed, types of soil, level of soil, type(s) of fibers, and the stability of the dyes. We highly value clients' input concerning their rugs.

 

We do not take rugs for cleaning. We come to you and rugs are cleaned on location.

 

Thorough pre-vacuuming of every rug is essential as more than 40% of soil in rugs is loose particulate dirt.

 

The majority of delicate silk, wool, and cotton rugs are meticulously cleaned by handheld extraction tools, while some rugs are durable enough for encapsulation machine cleaning. In either case, rugs are deeply impregnated with neutral Ph pre-conditioners or soil digesting enzymes causing soil to "suspend" from fibers, followed by an extraction rinse process especially selected for particular rugs construction, condition, level of soiling, or other special circumstances. 

 

The extraction process removes ground-in soil, oils, and all pre-conditioners or enzyme solutions from the rug.

 

Silk and sisal rugs are dry cleaned using solvent-based solutions.  

 

After the cleaning process, special procedures are used to properly clean and brighten fringes or remove most stains and odors.

 

Finally, rugs are speed dried with high-volume carpet dryers.
