Testimonials
Whether your rug is an everyday centerpiece or a treasured heirloom, expert care makes all the difference.
In 1925, my grandmother purchased a large, intricately designed Persian rug that I've always loved and is now in my care. I don’t how old it was at the time of purchase, but it hadn't been cleaned in very many decades . Rug Renovating has cleaned over a dozen rugs for me. The colors are now softly vibrant in the cleaned and restored rug and it is silken to the touch. It's beautiful and I'm grateful! Thank you, Jody and the expert team of Rug Renovating. Delivery was also perfect, on time and excellently installed. Many thanks! Susan
The only firm in the area I trust with our antique silk rugs. They removed years of ground-in dirt without fading the delicate dyes. Worth every single penny
I thought our light carpet was ruined forever after years of pet wear. One visit from their team brought back the original color and texture completely. Couldn't be happier!”
Exceptional service from the quote to the final delivery. The team was punctual, expert, and handled our custom broadloom carpet with top-tier care.
