Cleaning Oriental Area Rugs In The Home Is A TERRIBLE Idea…
At Oriental Rug Salon, we are often asked why area rugs should be cleaned in a specialized rug cleaning plant rather than in customers’ homes or businesses.
The Answer is:
Cleaning rugs in a specialized rug cleaning plant allows for the proper and thoroughly exhaustive cleaning of your area rug by certified technicians in a professional manner to the highest achievable standard possible. It is impossible to deep clean an Oriental, wool or silk area rug in a client home or business.
At Oriental Rug Salon we own SW Florida’s most experienced and trusted rug cleaning and repair facility with A+ ratings by the Better Business Bureau and Angie’s List. In addition, we are a Certified Partner with the prestigious Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) and the international Carpet & Rug Institute (CRI).
Cleaning area rugs in our plant will assure we have full control over the entire cleaning process. It is not possible to maintain our high standard and properly clean your area rugs in your own home or business.
Also, you should NEVER allow a carpet cleaning company to surface clean your cherished wool or silk area rug in the home. Please click HERE to view our video to learn the difference between a professional rug cleaning and a “carpet cleaner” cleaning.
There are Exceptions!
It is possible to clean certain synthetic area rugs on site.
Certain area rugs MUST ALWAYS be cleaned in our plant (such as wool, silk or cotton) but there can be an occasional situation in which it is necessary to clean an area rug on site.
Rugs made of synthetic fibers such as nylon, olefin, polyester, etc., that are very large or have a lot of heavy furniture on them could possibly qualify for cleaning on location.
What Types of Rugs MUST ALWAYS be Cleaned in Our Plant?
1. Area rugs of any fiber type that contain animal or human urine MUST be cleaned in our plant to specially treat them for odors, urine salts or bacteria.
This is a labor-intensive process guaranteed to remove all URINE ODOR from the rugs. (URINE STAINS, on the other hand, may be permanent on certain types of rugs and carpet, although it is possible under some conditions to permanently remove or significantly lighten them.)
2. All natural fiber rugs such as wool, cotton, silk or sisal must be removed and brought back to our plant for washing.
These fibers require much longer drying times and a significant amount of extra care in order to produce a quality washing without damaging the rug. Some of the risks involved could include dye migration, cellulose browning, improper drying, bacteria production, damage to floors, etc.
Additionally, since wool fiber can hold up to 30% of its weight in water and still feel dry, it is essential to make certain that the rug we return to you is completely dry to prevent any possibility of mold, mildew or dry rot from occurring. 3. Rugs with any kind of insect infestation such as moths, carpet beetles, etc.
