Even though your area rug looks clean, normal settling of dust and dirt is abrasive and will shorten the life of your rug. We recommend rug cleaning every 12 months. It is also important to rotate it once a year so your area rug will get equal amounts of traffic and wear.

Our Oriental/Area Rug cleaning is the best service to use for your high value are rugs. We use a dry cleaning compound imported from Europe to dry clean your area rugs. This compound is safe for any type of oriental or area rug made. We do not use water as it can cause bleeding of colors and other problems. Mot area rugs tell you to dry clean them on the label.

The best way to keep a rug clean is to keep it from getting dirty in the first place. Make sure you and guests remove your shoes before entering the house. Bare-foot or sock-foot traffic is much gentler to a rug than a hard outdoor-shoe sole (or spike heel), and leaving your outdoor shoes at the entrance to the house tracks in much less dirt.

Have your rug cleaned only when it really needs it. For rugs in some areas this will mean a yearly cleaning. Rugs in other areas can go several years and more without needing professional cleaning.
