We recommend that oriental rug owners have their rugs appraised for replacement value. Like fine art and jewelry, oriental rugs should have a similar rider on their owner's insurance policy.
Due to the unique quality of oriental rugs, replacements would have a premium cost.
Call to schedule an appointment to have your rugs appraised.
Our cleaning process is completed with every rug we receive.
1. All rugs are measured, tagged, examined, and recorded as soon as they are brought in.
2. Repairs are suggested if they are needed.
3. The rugs are taken to the cleaning area where they are prepped by turning them upside down on a wooden floor and dusted with a commercial beater bar vacuum until little or no dust falls from the foundation to the floor.
4. Spots are treated with appropriate cleaners on the front of each rug.
5. Shampoo is sprayed on each rug and worked in with a push broom in the direction of the pile, including the fringe.
6. The rugs are rinsed and extracted with clear water also in the direction of the pile.
7. The rugs are hung on a special rack to dry in our specialized, fully climate controlled drying room.
8. The following day, the fringe is cleaned again with a special fringe cleaner. Special fringe cleaner is sprayed on, brushed in by hand, then rinsed and extracted with clear water. The rugs are then re-hung to dry in our specialized drying room.
9. When the rugs are completely dry, their fringe is combed/brushed and trimmed evenly, if needed.
10. The rugs are re-dusted as in step #3, and any remaining spots are removed.
11. The rugs are then rolled and tied and placed in the holding area to await pickup or delivery.
For rugs that have biological stains:
* Steps 4 & 5 are replaced by immersing the rug in a disinfecting/deodorizing solution.
* Step 6 is replaced by immersing the rug in clear water repeatedly until the water remains clear.
