We take pride in cleaning carpets and upholstery, but we're great rug cleaners too. We can clean your Persian and Oriental rugs, as well as any other types of rugs you may have.
When it comes to your rugs, we take the greatest care. We can either clean you area rugs while we're in your home or take them to our business, clean them, and return them back to you clean and renewed.
In cleaning your rugs, we make sure to first determine the type of rug you have. This involves examining how the rug was woven together, the glues used to hold the rug together (some rugs do not use a glue to keep the weave together), the fabric type, and the type of dye used for coloring the fabric. This allows us to make sure we use the proper cleaning solutions that will be tough on the dirt but not on your rug. Then we'll clean your rugs using a method similar to our carpet cleaning process.
While you should have the rugs in your home cleaned periodically by a professional, there are a few things that you can do which will help keep your rug looking great.
The history and origin of rugs goes back as far as 5,000 years ago when people wanted something to make the cold dirt floors warmer. The design of rugs has evolved drastically from those first rugs made, but much of the materials used to make rugs and their uses hasn't changed as much. Many area rugs are still made from wool and are used to help make the floor in your home warmer and more inviting.
There are many types of rugs, as well as materials that are used to make them. Rugs can be made from natural materials-such as wool, synthetic materials-like acrylic fibers, or a combination of the two. The same applies to the coloring or dyes used to bring color to a rug. That's why it's important to have a professional cleaner come in and examine the area rug to determine the best cleaning process.
Area rugs come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. But the more expensive types of rugs are the Persian and Oriental rugs. The difference between the two is important to note. Oriental rugs are made in countries within Asia, while Persian rugs are made exclusively in Iran. Since a Persian rug is made in Iran, it's also an Oriental rug. This means that a Persian rug is an Oriental rug, but an Oriental rug might not be a Persian rug.
While we can clean most area rug types, there are certain rugs that require other methods in order to be cleaned properly.
