Time-honored care
for your fine area rugs

Deep in-plant rug washing and thorough soil extraction for fine textiles, trusted across generations of rug owners.

Rug care

The right care approach 
for every type of rug

Selecting the right rug care provider is an important decision built on trust—a standard of excellence we have maintained across generations of continuous service.

Everyday foot traffic, deep-set grit, and accidental spills require far more than surface cleaning. At our dedicated wash facility, we blend submersion washing with hands-on fiber expertise to safely lift embedded soil, restore natural luster, and preserve your rug's structural integrity.

How it works

Our 5-Step
precision wash process

  • 01

    Inspection & dye testing

    We evaluate fiber structure, document condition, and verify dye stability before formulating the wash process.

  • 02

    Mechanical dry dusting

    Our specialized tumbler gently vibrates out pounds of trapped, abrasive soil from deep inside the pile that vacuums miss.

  • 03

    Submersion organic bath

    Rugs are submerged in clean water and pH-neutral organic soaps while soft brushes gently lift deeply embedded contaminants.

  • 04

    Target stain & odor treatment

    Specialized enzymatic solutions target stubborn spots and pet accidents, neutralizing odor molecules directly at the core.

  • 05

    Climate drying & detailing

    Precision tower drying to prevent shrinkage, followed by hand-grooming, fringe detailing, and final sign-off by a Certified Rug Specialist.

Help & Guidance

Frequently asked questions about our cleaning care

Find clear answers on our gentle hand-wash methods, safe organic solutions, white-glove pickup, and master restoration.

What types of area rugs does Rug Renovating clean?

We clean a wide range of rugs, including Persian, Oriental, antique, silk, wool, hand-knotted, contemporary, and designer rugs. Each piece receives an individual assessment to determine the most appropriate cleaning method.

Why should area rugs be professionally cleaned at a specialized facility?

Facility cleaning allows for thorough dry soil removal, controlled washing, careful rinsing, and proper drying. These specialized processes can reach embedded dirt and contaminants that ordinary surface cleaning may leave behind.

How often should I have my area rugs professionally cleaned?

Cleaning frequency depends on foot traffic, fiber type, pets, and environmental conditions. Rugs in busy living areas generally require more frequent attention than those in low-traffic spaces. Our specialists can recommend a maintenance schedule based on your rug’s needs.

Can you remove pet urine stains and odors from my rug?

We offer specialized treatments for pet stains and odors, including contamination that has penetrated beneath the rug’s surface. Treatment is selected according to the rug’s construction and the severity of the problem. Some permanent staining or fiber damage may remain.

Can you pick up my rug and return it after cleaning?

Yes. We provide professional pickup and delivery within our service area. Our team coordinates the transportation of your rug to our cleaning facility and its return following cleaning and final inspection.
