Our Comprehensive Rug Cleaning Methods

To achieve the best possible results, we offer multiple cleaning strategies. We effectively remove dirt without compromising the integrity of the rug. We apply right method for right materials. Our available services included deep cleaning, wet cleaning, bonnet cleaning, and steam cleaning.


Professional wet cleaning service for rugs

Wet Cleaning for Deep Wash

This traditional approach involves submerged washing. It is particularly effective for natural fibers like wool and silk, as it allows the cleaning team to penetrate deep into the fabrics of the rug to remove embedded dust particles.


Professional rug cleaning service

Bonnet Cleaning for Surface

Bonnet cleaning focuses primarily on the surface of the rug. A rotating machine with an absorbent pad attracts dirt from the top layer of the fibers. This method is preferred when a quick drying time is necessary or for rugs that do not require a deep-submersion wash.


Professional steam cleaning service for household rug

Steam Cleaning for Sanitization

Steam cleaning uses high temperatures to sanitize rugs. This method is highly effective for killing bacteria and dust mites that may be hiding within the pile, making your home environment healthier for your family.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should you clean your area rugs?
We recommend a professional cleaning every 12 to 18 months. However, if you live in high-traffic areas like Baltimore or Columbia with pets, children, or allergy sufferers, you may need deep cleaning every 6 to 12 months to remove dirt.
What is the best cleaning method for oriental or Persian rugs?
Hand-knotted treasures like Oriental and Persian rugs require specialized care. We typically use Wet Cleaning (submerged washing) combined with our multi-step dusting and rinsing process.
Can you remove pet stains and odors from wool rugs?
Yes. Our Deep Rug Cleaning service is specifically designed to tackle stubborn stains and neutralize odors.
Why shouldn't you just steam clean your rug at home?
Home steam cleaners often leave behind too much moisture or use excessive heat, which can shrink cotton backings or damage delicate silk fibers.
