Rug Cleaning

Stylish area rugs add sophistication to any home. But just like regular carpets, your area rug can absorb a lot of punishment-constant foot traffic, dirt, spills, soil and other materials.

If your rugs require professional cleaning, you can place your trust in the rug cleaning experts at Seattle Carpet Cleaning. Using high performance equipment and advanced techniques, our rug cleaning technicians will deep-clean and protect your area rugs.

Your area rug will look more beautiful than it has in years!

Superior Cleaning Techniques

We know that each rug must be treated with individualized attention and care. Our technicians scientifically determine the best cleaning technique and method to suit your rug, taking into consideration its particular weave, fibers and dyes. Only then do we begin the job.

First we send your rugs through a dusting machine-much more effective in removing soil than regular vacuuming. Then, rugs are soaked, washed and hung to dry in a controlled air environment.

We use only the most advanced technology for cleaning and rejuvenating your rug. Your rug will once again be delightful to behold-a rich mix of color and texture. We know you'll be thrilled with the results.

Here's a closer look at the carpet rug cleaning process:

Pre-Inspection - We examine each rug, looking for signs of fading, discoloration, stains, pre-existing damage, color instability and odors. We then select the suitable cleaning process.
Dusting - We remove dust and small particles lying deep within the rug, using compressed air. This step is often referred to as "air washing" or "dusting", and is far more effective than vacuuming or beating.
Pre-Treatment - Spots and stains are pre-treated using advanced spotting techniques.
Pre-Cleaning of sites of heavy traffic and soiling.
Note: discoloration caused by wear, fading, or chemical reaction is not reversible.
Dissolving and extracting ground-in soil.
Rinsing in order to remove deeper soil and cleaning residue, and restore natural textures.
Restorative grooming with special grooming tools.
Note: fiber wear or distortion is irreversible.
Drying - Rugs are dried in a climate-regulated drying room. Takes less than one day.
Final Inspection. We will conduct a thorough inspection of your rug. If needed, we will repeat any of the above steps until your rug is as clean and beautiful looking as possible.

Rug Cleaning Tips

If you properly care for your rug you will prolong its life and appearance. Vacuum your rug periodically to remove loose soil, taking special care when you vacuum the fringe and edges.
Some throw rugs (especially bathroom rugs) can be washed in your home laundry.
Always comply with the manufacturer's recommended cleaning methods in order to prevent warranty invalidation and damage to your rug.
Have a professional deep-clean your rug often. Although several cleaning methods will work, in order to prevent rapid re-soiling, it is important to completely remove all cleaning agents.
