Our Step-by-Step Rug Cleaning Process
-
- Detailed Inspection & Fiber ID
We check fiber type, colorfastness, damage, and any pest activity. If it’s wool, silk, or viscose—we clean it differently. - Dusting with RugBadger™
We shake out deep, hidden dirt that vacuums miss. This protects fibers from premature wear. - Soak & Hand-Wash with PH-balanced Shampoo
Rugs are gently washed in cold water with MasterBlend Natural Fiber Cleaner, designed for delicate dyes. - Controlled Drying
We dry rugs flat in a temperature- and humidity-monitored room—no hanging that might distort the shape. - Fringe Repair & Detailing
We re-knot fringes, trim edges, and carefully restore any fraying without bleach or harsh chemicals. - Final Quality Check
We use UV lights to scan for remaining stains and odors, and only then do we package and deliver.
