AREA RUGS  -  OUR GREATEST LOVE AND OFTEN OUR GREATEST CHALLENGE SINCE WE THRIVE ON THE DIFFICULT ONES

Why do we love to clean them so much?  Because they are so responsive to the combination of expertise and focused effort and the desire to please.  Every rug that enters our plant receives the highest degree of attention.

We clean oriental rugs, designer rugs, exotic rugs (sisal, raffia, abaca, seagrass, coir), chainstitch and needlepoints (they are blocked and sized first), animal skins, Green shags (Flokati),Chinese, Carousel (popcorn), Irish wool, Spanish, sculptured, art silk, silk, cotton, Moroccan, Persian, Russian, Tibetan, Navajo, South American, braided, crewel, hook, Dhurrie, Kilim, Armenian, runners and cut rugs.  In other words, if you have it we will clean it. We also clean tapestries, wall hangings, Belgium, Scandinavian, and French Abusson rugs.

When accepting an area rug for cleaning, it is imperative to find out first what the expectation of the owner is.  There is no point in spending money if there is no value in return.  We are skillful enough to be able to provide this information before anything is written up.  If there is doubt, we test the rug while you are there to determine the results that may be achieved.

The second thing to determine is whether the cost of cleaning is warranted in terms of the value of the rug.  We often tell people not to spend the money.  We find this to be a good policy since, in many instances, people go on to tell us that they have other rugs at home that are much better and they will bring them in for cleaning when in need.  Honesty is always the best way to be.

Needless to say, we do not have one of those 16 foot automatic scrubbers that you toss the rug into.  All of our work is done by hand and cleaning units (the shampoo process, followed by the steam cleaning process).  We have a lift or big fans for fast drying.  And, yes, we do incorporate dry cleaning in some situations.
