Area Rug Cleaning

Trust The Rug Experts

Area and Oriental rugs are a beautiful addition to any home. Like well-placed wall decor or fine paintings, they contribute to the overall character and complete the furnishing of a well-decorated room. Unlike wall decor, however, area rugs usually receive a fair amount of traffic. We can clean your area rugs right in your home, or take them to our shop for a deeper cleaning. Our rug pickup & delivery fee is determined based off your zip code.

Rugs can trap dirt and non-living allergens from everyday use. Regular vacuuming and suitable professional cleaning can help maintain their appearance. Cleaning results depend on the fibers, dyes, construction, condition, and previous treatments.

Our Process

First step will be the inspection process. We test fabric strands for color fading and color loss before cleaning to assess an appropriate method. Testing does not guarantee against shrinkage, color changes or existing damage; discuss the risks and care needs for your rug before work begins.

Then we will vacuum the rug with a special commercial vacuum to remove as much soil before we send it to the rug DUSTER. This process is the most important step to get your area rug as clean as we can. This can shake out almost 20 pounds of dirt in a 6×9- more dirt the larger the rug is.

Once this step is complete the Rug Guru will wash the rug using the procedure that best fits your rugs needs. Not all rugs are the same each fiber may have a different recommended wash cycle.

What Hiring an Expert Means to You

Rug care depends on the fibers, dyes, construction, backing, and condition. Tell us whether your rug is synthetic, wool, cotton, silk, or another material so we can assess an appropriate cleaning approach before work begins, including care for Oriental or Persian rugs.

An appropriate cleaning and drying method depends on the rug’s fibers, dyes, construction and condition. Appearance and color stability can vary, and some stains, fading or damage may remain. Discuss expected results and suitable care with our team.

Our professionals evaluate each rug to determine whether cleaning is appropriate for its materials and condition. Improvements vary, and some stains or damage may remain. We ensure your rugs are carefully handled and cleaned by our certified, trained specialists who perform a thorough evaluation on them in order to provide the most effective rug cleaning for each individual rug. Due to the wide variety in construction materials and styles of area rugs, we’ll be happy to provide an in-home analysis for any rugs you’d like cleaned and prepare a no-obligation quote.

Our technicians inspect rugs for material, dye stability, stains, pet messes, wear, and other areas needing attention. We discuss an appropriate cleaning method and specialty treatment options before work begins. Some marks or damage may be permanent; results and color stability depend on the rug.

Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of cleaning an area rug depends on the following factors:

• Whether you clean it yourself or have it professionally cleaned
• The area in which you live, and the availability of cleaning services
• The size of the rug
• The extent of the dirt or damage

While some dry cleaners may clean an area rug, you are often better suited hiring a professional carpet cleaning service, as this is more in their purview.

To avoid the amount of harsh chemicals often involved with steam cleaning, Chem-Dry employs a process with millions of tiny bubbles, which work together to gently but efficiently remove dirt from the depths of the carpet. This process uses about 80% less water than traditional steam cleaning.
