Your Oriental or Persian rug isn’t just décor—it’s a piece of history, a work of art, and complements the room it adorns perfectly. So why trust it with just anyone? If you’re in Southwest Florida and looking for professional Oriental and Persian rug cleaning, Oriental Rug Salon is your go-to expert. With decades of experience, industry certifications, and a passion for preserving rug beauty, we treat every rug like it’s our own.

Let’s explore why Oriental Rug Salon is the trusted name for area rug cleaning in SW Florida, and how we bring your beloved rugs back to life—one gentle wash at a time.

Why Professional Rug Cleaning Matters in SW Florida

Ever tried vacuuming your rug and felt like it still smelled “off” or looked dull? That’s because deep cleaning an Oriental or Persian rug isn’t as simple as it seems.

These rugs are woven from delicate fibers, and many are dyed with natural pigments. Home or steam cleaning methods can damage the fibers, fade colors, lead to dry rot, or cause shrinking. Professional cleaning, on the other hand, revives your rug’s color, removes deep-set dirt, odors, and contaminants, and helps your rug last for generations.

What Makes Oriental Rugs So Special?

Oriental and Persian rugs are handmade, each telling a story through thousands of intricate handwoven knots. They’re often passed down through families, making them priceless.

From Persian masterpieces to Turkish, Afghan, and Chinese heirlooms, each rug type requires unique care. At Oriental Rug Salon, we understand the unique personality of each rug and treat it with the utmost care and respect.

Meet Oriental Rug Salon – Your Rug’s Best Friend

We’re not a carpet cleaner who also does rugs. Oriental Rug Salon specializes exclusively in the cleaning, repair, and restoration of Oriental and Persian rugs.

We’re proud to be:

WoolSafe Approved Service Providers

  • Certified by the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) and the International Carpet & Rug Institute (CRI)
  • Fully licensed and insured

You’re not just hiring a cleaner—you’re choosing a dedicated rug spa, trusted across Southwest Florida with clients throughout the United States.

Oriental and Persian Rug Cleaning Process: One Rug at a Time

Unlike some companies that batch-wash rugs, we treat each rug individually. Why? Because your rug deserves undivided attention.

Here’s what happens:

  • Inspection & Dye Testing
  • We assess for damage, test for colorfastness, and note areas needing special care.
  • Dust Removal safely using 40,000 harmonic vibrations per minute to dislodge deep set dirt, oils, sand, dust mites, pollen, and pet dander from the rug’s foundation.
  • Thoroughly wash both sides of the area rug in a dedicated bath specific to the rug’s needs. Using WoolSafe-approved products and fresh water, your rug is thoroughly cleaned yet gently.
  • The rug is then conditioned and rinsed in a cool bath
  • Water is extracted from the rug in a centrifuge
  • The area rug is dried in a humidity-controlled drying room
  • Final Grooming & Inspection

Your rug is fluffed, brushed, and ready for delivery!

Certified, Insured, and Trusted by the Best

We’re proud to be Southwest Florida’s cleaner of choice for many:

  • Interior designers
  • Oriental and Persian rug retailers
  • High-end collectors
  • Rug owners who care deeply about their rugs

Our certifications from IICRC, CRI, and WoolSafe back up our skills with industry-proven expertise.

Pet Urine and Odor Removal: We’ve Got You Covered

Accidents happen—but your rug doesn’t have to suffer forever. Pet urine is not just a surface problem; it penetrates deeply into the fibers and backing, causing color migration, odors, and dry rot.

We offer specialized enzyme treatments and odor neutralizers explicitly designed for wool and silk.

Fringe Repairs and Rug Restoration Services

Fringe unraveling, or has been in a fight with a pet or vacuum cleaner? Colors fading? Rips or tears? We offer rug restoration and hand repairs to bring your rug back to its former glory. Our artisans specialize in:

  • Fringe re-knotting, repair, or replacement
  • Reweaving torn sections
  • Dye correction
  • Binding edges

Think of it as a trip to a rug spa with a built-in time machine.

Why Custom Rug Padding Matters

The right rug pad:

  • Prevents slipping
  • Protects against floor damage
  • Increases rug lifespan by absorbing shock from traffic
  • Improves comfort underfoot

We provide custom-cut rug padding based on your rug’s size, thickness, and the type of floor it rests on. A good pad is like a rug’s best pair of shoes—supportive and made to last.

Oriental Rug Appraisals and Rug Storage Solutions

Need a rug appraisal for insurance, curiosity, or resale? We provide detailed, professional appraisals for all types of rugs.

Storing your rug for a season or a move? Don’t just roll it up in the garage. We provide climate-controlled area rug storage, wrapped with insect-repelling material to ensure safe, long-term protection.

Free Pick-Up and Delivery—Yes, Really!

We get it—rugs are heavy and awkward. That’s why we offer free pick-up and delivery for most area rugs in Lee, Collier, and Charlotte County.

Our friendly team will:

  • Roll and transport your rug carefully
  • Provide a detailed receipt and timeline
  • Deliver your rug clean, wrapped, and ready to enjoy

Turnaround Time: What to Expect

Most rug cleaning projects take about two weeks from pickup to delivery. We’ll provide you with updates and notify you if your rug requires additional care and attention.

Unlike rushed jobs, we focus on quality over speed, ensuring your rug is returned in its best possible condition.

Insect Deterrents and Rug Fiber Protection

Worried about moths, carpet beetles, or future stains? We offer:

Insect deterrent treatments

Fiber protection (like Scotchgard™ but made for wool and silk)

These optional add-ons keep your rug looking newer, longer—and help you sleep better at night knowing your investment is protected from spills.  Also, did you know, that fiber protector helps you receive a deeper clean with each vacuuming because dirt, pollen, and sand are not able to stick to the rug fibers?

Trusted by Collectors, Designers & Rug Dealers

When the pros need their rugs cleaned, they call us. Why?

Because Oriental Rug Salon:

  • Knows the history and structure of rugs
  • Uses industry-approved cleaning solutions and time-honored cleaning techniques
  • Cleans gently but thoroughly
  • Respects every stitch of craftsmanship

You don’t have to be a collector to treat your rug like one.

Why DIY and Steam Cleaning is Risky To Oriental and Persian Rugs

We’ve seen it all—rugs shrunk in washing machines, faded by harsh chemicals, shrunk or color loss due to a carpet cleaning company trying to “clean” a client’s rug in the home, or destroyed by improper drying.

DIY or steam cleaning may seem like a cost-effective option, but the cost of damage often far outweighs the savings. Trust the experts for peace of mind and a rug that lasts.
