Our Professional Rug Cleaning Process
We follow a proven, three-step methodology that delivers measurable results for every rug type and construction.
Step 1: Inspection & Rug Valuation Assessment
Every rug cleaning begins with detailed analysis. Our technicians identify rug construction (hand-knotted, machine-made, hand-tufted), assess fibre composition (wool, silk, cotton, natural dyes, synthetic), inspect for damage and wear patterns, and determine value and age.
We assess:
- Rug origin and cultural significance (Persian, Turkish, Afghan, Indian, Chinese)
- Fibre type and natural vs synthetic dyes (critical for method selection)
- Knot density and weave tightness (determines water safety)
- Existing damage requiring specialized care
- Staining and soiling patterns
- Potential shrinkage or colour-bleeding risks
This assessment determines appropriate cleaning method—on-site or facility-based—and expected outcomes.
Step 2: Deep Cleaning—Specialty Extraction
For robust synthetic rugs and machine-made pieces, we use truck-mounted extraction:
Removes embedded dirt: 70-80% of rug soiling hides deep in backing layers and pile. Our extraction reaches this deep layer.
Eliminates allergens: Professional extraction kills dust mites, bacteria, and mould spores critical for allergy sufferers.
Restores colour: Deep extraction lifts soil that dulls rug appearance, revealing original colour and pattern definition.
For delicate hand-knotted, antique, and specialty rugs, we use facility-based methods:
Off-site facility cleaning for valuable pieces:
- Controlled environment prevents environmental contamination
- Gentle agitation by hand using brushes and soft tools
- Low-moisture or solvent-based methods for delicate fibres
- pH-balanced solutions matching fibre composition
- Climate-controlled drying preventing shrinkage
Step 3: Drying & Finishing
For on-site extraction, air movers accelerate drying. For facility cleaning, climate-controlled drying prevents colour bleeding and shrinkage. Final inspection verifies restoration quality and colour integrity.
Result: beautifully restored rugs ready for display with colours revived and fibres preserved.
