Area Rug Cleaning
We can clean almost any synthetic fiber area rug on site. However, rugs that are made of natural fibers will be subject to an evaluation in person prior to cleaning!!
Area Rugs
Your area rugs are the frosting on the cake when it comes to pulling the feel of a room together with their design, color, size, and shape. Other area rugs are more functional by nature showing us where to wipe off our shoes and where to set them before entering a room. All of these rugs are very important to you and we understand this. That is why we take extra measures to insure that they are being treated with the utmost of care. Synthetic fiber rugs are cleaned with the same equipment, cleaning solutions, and process as we would use in cleaning your carpet. Usually these rugs can be cleaned on site.
Our Process
Inspection
1. Our technician will analyze the rug and take notes regarding fiber type, soil level, damage, and any spots or stains that may require an additional treatment.
Vacuum
2. Next the technician will vacuum to remove debris and loose soil from the fibers and matting.
Pre-Conditioner
3. The rug will then be sprayed with a safe but effective solution that breaks down oils, grease, residue from previous spills, and spot cleaners which all act as a host allowing soil to adhere to the carpet fibers not allowing them to come out when vacuumed.
Agitation
4. Additionally we use a C.R.B (Counter Rotating Brush Machine) which scrubs and agitates the solution into the rug’s fibers. This process evenly spreads the solution while rooting up pet hair, dust mites, soil, or anything else that calls your area rug home. All of this will become suspended in the liquid.
Rinse and Extract
5. Hot water extraction is next. This is where we kill and remove everything from your rug that doesn’t belong there. The extraction wand has multiple jets which blasts 240 degree water down to the carpet base killing and flushing out microorganisms, allergens, and all of the cleaning solution which now contains the host residue, soil, and other junk which is simultaneously extracted through a powerful vacuum and sent directly out to our truck’s dump tank taking everything with us but your smile! Your area rug is left clean, bright, and healthy with no residue left behind.
Rake and Inspect
6. Finally, depending on the rug’s fibers the technician will rake it so the fibers stand back up and look new again. Now your area rug is left clean, spotless, and residue free.
Scotchgard Protection
We strongly suggest protection for all area rugs which can extend its life and prevent damage from harmful dirt and spills. It also defends against everyday wear and tear like foot traffic and vacuuming. Adding Scotchgard protector is a great way to preserve the results of every rug cleaning. We strongly suggest protection if you have kids and pets. When you spill something on most unprotected rugs the fibers absorb the mess creating stains or odors. Scotchgard protection works by repelling dirt from the fibers and preventing them from absorbing the spills.
