Before we begin any work, a certified rug cleaning technician inspects the rug. The technician will examine the condition and the materials in the rug. They will test the rug with our cleaning solutions and find the best cleaning materials to use on the rug. This will ensure that the cleaning process is safe for the rug and will not cause color run.
When your rug arrives at our cleaning facility it will be examined for problems areas and then it will go through a dirt removal process. This will be done with a dust beating machine that gently beats the back of the rug. Dirt will be shaken look from the pile and fall from the rug to the ground.
A mild cleaning detergent is the next step in the cleaning process. The rug is soaked in a cleaning pool to remove any stains on the rug and allow the cleaning solution to remove the dust from the rug. We use solutions that are green and Eco-friendly for the environment. If harsh chemicals are used to clean Persian rugs, then dye-bleeding can occur. That is why we carefully test each rug to determine the best cleaning solution. Once the cleaning process is finished, we rinse the rug to remove the cleaning solution and dirty water.
The fourth step in the cleaning process is to dry the rug. This is to ensure that no spots appear on fibers or in the foundation of the rug. If we do not allow the rug to dry evenly, then colored fibers may appear to be inconsistent. First we spin dry the rug to remove up to 95% of the water. The spin drying will leave the rug damp and free of any remaining dirty water and detergent. We finish the drying process by hanging the rug in a room with a dehumidifier to speed the drying process.
The last step in the cleaning process for Persian rugs is to perform a final inspection. A final inspection is done to ensure that the rug has been cleaned to our standards and is ready to be shipped back to the customer. We will also hand clean the fringes to make sure they add that final touch of elegance to the rug.
