Area Rug Cleaning
Specialty Rugs
When you invest in a high-end rug, you dedicate considerable time to selecting colors, design, materials, and knot counts. It’s natural to extend this attention to detail when choosing a professional to clean and maintain your rug. Handwoven rugs like Bokharas demand special care, requiring the cleaner to be knowledgeable about the fabrics used in their creation.
Oriental and Persian rugs of this caliber necessitate delicate cleaning methods to prevent issues such as fraying. Not all rugs are suitable for conventional washing methods. The dyes used in specialty rugs, often derived from plants or insects, may not be colorfast. In such cases, a low moisture method is essential to prevent color bleeding and preserve the rug’s integrity.
Moreover, subjecting rugs to heavy equipment or cleaning them outdoors on a driveway risks damaging them. Heavy machinery can misalign the rug, while driveway cleaning exposes it to chemicals and oils that can permeate the fabric, causing irreversible harm. Reputable area rug cleaners avoid cleaning rugs on driveways to ensure the preservation of the rug’s quality.
