Professional rug cleaning isn’t just cleaner—it’s deeper, safer, and built for real results
You wouldn’t skip brushing your teeth for a year — so why live with a filthy rug?
If your area rug hasn’t had a professional deep clean in 12+ months, you’re not just overdue. You’re inviting dust mites, trapped odors, pet grime, and fiber wear that even the best vacuum can’t fix.
This is the Ultimate Rug Spa, where we don’t just “clean rugs” – we rescue them
Rug restoration: Step-by-step —our 9-stage spa treatment
We don’t guess. We inspect, test, and tailor everything based on the rug’s origin, fiber, age, and damage. Here’s how it actually goes down:
1. Visual Inspection
We check for dye stability, wear patterns, fringe damage, urine salts, and moth activity. Every rug tells a story- we read it before we touch it.
2. Bleed Test
Wool, silk, or synthetic? Old-world vegetable dyes or modern machine-made fibers? We test colorfastness so there are no surprises mid-clean.
3. Dust Extraction & Reveal
This is where we pull out pounds of dry soil- yes, pounds. Our RugBadger and compressed air tools vibrate dust from deep inside the weave. It’s what vacuums can’t touch.
4. Aroma-Infused Bath
We immerse the rug in a pH-balanced soak using essential oils and fiber-safe cleaners. It gently loosens grime without stressing the foundation.
5. Spot Cleaning Treatment
Wine, tar, grease, pet urine, ink—you name it, we’ve tackled it. We hand-treat these stains with specialty solutions for max lift, minimum fiber risk.
6. Transport & Rinse Cradle Loading
Once prepped, the rug is placed into our custom cradle system to rinse safely- no folding, dragging, or edge fray.
7. Water Expulsion Therapy
This is our high-speed centrifuge. It spins out 95% of moisture without wringing, stretching, or damaging the rug’s backing.
8. Final Examination
After drying, we re-inspect under raking light to catch any missed spots or uneven tones. If it’s not perfect, it goes back in.
9. Controlled Dry Room Finish
Temperature- and humidity-controlled, this room protects natural fibers from warp or curl. It’s the kind of finish hand-knotted rugs need.

Why pro rug cleaning matters (and DIY just can’t compete)
- Pet smells? Gone. We don’t just mask odors-we flush the source out of the rug’s foundation.
- Mold or mildew? Neutralized. Our dry room prevents re-growth.
- Color fade or dullness? Reversed. By clearing soil, we restore the rug’s actual hue.
- Texture problems? Fixed. Proper rinse and drying preserve wool’s bounce and softness.
Plus, we’re not just blasting with chemicals. Our eco-conscious products are safe for pets, kids, and antique textiles.
