RUG CLEANING PLANT
Our 9 Step Rug Cleaning Process ensures the DEEPEST Cleaning for your Rugs
Our In-Plant Rug Cleaning Service, includes our very thorough 9 Steps Cleaning System to get maximum soil and spot removal.
Having your rug cleaned in our plant allows us to give it several treatments for a more thorough cleaning, controlled drying and the use of various tools that are not available in our customers residences.
In-Plant Rug Cleaning is recommended for Rugs that are heavily soiled or have Pet Accidents (Urine, Feces, Vomit, etc). They should not be cleaned on location like wall-to-wall carpet.
Step 1: Pre-Inspection and Pick Up
We will determine as much as we possibly can about the type of rug and inherent qualities that may affect cleaning. We will outline the expected results and cleaning “prescription”. Our company will come to your home to pick up your rug, or you may drop it by our shop.
Step 2: Dry Soil Removal
Woven rugs, especially hand knotted rugs are designed to hide dry soil. A few years ago, the Eureka company did a study and found that a 9 x 12 could hide 87 pounds of dirt! WOW! We use a variety of techniques to “dust” the rugs from the front and back. This is the most important step in cleaning any textile.
Step 3: Pre-Condition
Depending on fiber content and soiling type, the rug will be pre-treated to emulsify the soils.
Step 4: Pre-Spot and Fringe Preparation
Any potentially difficult spots will be pre-treated with special solutions to increase chances of removal. The fringe is also pre-treated for maximum soil removal.
Step 5: Shampoo
Depending on fiber content and soiling type, the rug will be pre-treated to emulsify the soils. Most rugs are cleaned with an Oriental Rug Shampoo that is especially designed to get maximum cleaning while protecting sensitive natural fibers.
Step 6: Rinse or Wash
Depending on the type of rug it will be rinsed with extraction equipment on both sides or washed in a wash pit designed especially for Oriental Rugs.
Step 7: Speed Dry
Once the soil is rinsed away, the rug is hung to dry in a controlled environment. Proper drying is essential to avoid unnatural shrinkage.
Step 8: Finishing
When the rug is dry, it is combed and finished with soft groomers made for specialty rugs.
Step 9: Post Inspection and Wrapping
Our cleaning specialist will give the rug a final inspection and release it for pick up OR delivery. Your rug will be wrapped to protect it from dust and environmental soils until it is picked up or delivered.
