Specialty Rug Cleaning - Oriental, Wool, & Custom Rugs

Oriental and specialty rugs should not be cleaned the same way as carpet. Cleaning them incorrectly can lead to color bleeding, shrinkage, or even damage to your floors, while still leaving behind deep soil and buildup.

At our rug cleaning facility, we use specialized equipment, controlled cleaning methods, and high-quality products to ensure a complete and safe deep clean.

Our team is trained in handling delicate and high-value rugs, so your rug is cleaned thoroughly and safely, not rushed through a standard process.

If you want your rug cleaned the right way, choosing the right team makes all the difference.

Types of Rug Cleaning

Most rugs fall into one of two categories:

1. In-Home Rug Cleaning (Maintenance)

Performed in your home for routine care and light refreshes. This method is best for rugs in good condition without strong odors or heavy buildup. It helps maintain appearance but does not provide a full deep wash.

2. In-Plant Rug Cleaning (Deep)

Performed at our rug cleaning facility for a deeper, more controlled clean. This method is recommended for when there is odor, heavy soil, or delicate fibers involved. It allows for full dusting, washing, and proper drying to remove contamination at the source.

Within our facility, every rug is evaluated to determine the safest and most effective cleaning approach. Based on its condition, we perform one of the following methods:

1. Standard Front and Back Rug cleaning for general soil removal
2. Immersion Rug Cleaning (tub wash) for odor, pet accidents, or heavy contamination
3. Low-moisture cleaning for delicate or moisture-sensitive materials

Our 9-Step Rug Cleaning Process

Once we determine the right level of cleaning, your rug goes through a detailed process designed to remove deep soil, odors, and buildup while protecting its fibers.

1. Pre-Inspection & Pickup
We inspect your rug’s material, condition, and size, then create a custom cleaning plan. You can drop it off or schedule pickup.

2. Dry Soil Removal
We remove deep, embedded dust and debris from both sides—one of the most important steps.

3. Pre-Conditioning
We prepare the rug based on its needs. This may include applying cleaning solutions or an immersion (tub wash) for strong odors, pet accidents, or heavy contamination.

4. Spot & Fringe Treatment
Spots and fringes are treated with specialized solutions.

5. Agitation
We work the solution into the fibers to release embedded soil. For delicate rugs, this may be done using low-moisture cleaning methods.

6. Rinsing & Flushing
For rugs cleaned with water, soils and residues are thoroughly rinsed and removed. (Skipped for low-moisture cleaning.)

7. Controlled Drying
Rugs are spun and dried in a controlled environment to prevent shrinkage, dye migration, or damage.

8. Grooming
Fibers are brushed and reset to restore the rug’s appearance.

9. Final Inspection & Wrapping
We complete a final quality check, then wrap your rug for pickup or delivery.

Pickup, Delivery & Additional Care

You can drop your rug off at our facility or schedule convenient pickup and delivery.

If your rug is under heavy furniture, don’t let that be the reason you choose in-home cleaning. We can assist with moving furniture, remove the rug, and place everything back once the job is complete.

We also clean rug pads and offer high-quality, spill-resistant rug pads designed to protect both your rug and your floors.
