Rugs take the hardest traffic in the house and hide dirt deep in the pile. The right clean depends entirely on the fibre — wool, viscose, silk blends and synthetics each need different handling.

The technician identifies the fibre first, then cleans with the method the rug can actually take.

What the visit includes

  • Fibre identification and colour-fastness test
  • Deep dry-soil removal before any moisture
  • Fibre-appropriate extraction or low-moisture clean
  • Fringe cleaning where the weave allows

Honest expectations

  • Drying 4–8 hours depending on pile depth
  • Delicate rugs (silk, viscose) may need off-site treatment — we say so on inspection
  • Sun-faded areas become more visible on a clean rug; we point them out first

Questions

Rug cleaning — asked and answered.

Do you clean wool rugs?

Yes — wool is cleaned with controlled moisture and wool-safe chemistry, then dried flat to protect the backing.
