Area Rugs We Evaluate for Cleaning
Runners & High-Traffic Rugs
Hallway runners, entryway rugs, and rugs in frequently used living areas can collect concentrated soil that requires targeted cleaning attention.
Wool & Specialty Rugs
Wool, cotton, silk, viscose, antique, and other specialty rugs require individual assessment. Some materials and constructions are not suitable for on-site cleaning and may need specialist care.
Choosing the Right Cleaning Method for Your Rug
Our primary focus is low-moisture cleaning for compatible area rugs. VLM methods use controlled cleaning solution application and appropriate equipment to address everyday soil while reducing unnecessary moisture.
For suitable materials, professional mechanical cleaning may involve orbital, CRB, or rotary equipment.
Hot Water Extraction is also available when appropriate, but it is not automatically suitable for every rug.
The cleaning method is chosen according to the rug's construction, fiber type, backing, and overall condition.

Can you clean an area rug at my home?
On-site cleaning is available for suitable area rugs. We evaluate the rug's materials, backing, construction, and condition before recommending a cleaning method.
Do you clean wool rugs?
Wool rugs require individual assessment because construction, dye stability, and cleaning requirements vary. Some wool rugs may not be appropriate for on-site cleaning.
Can VLM be used on every rug?
No. Some rugs contain delicate fibers, unstable dyes, or moisture-sensitive backing materials. These factors can make certain cleaning methods unsuitable.
Do you use hot water extraction on area rugs?
HWE is available for rugs where the material and construction permit that type of cleaning. We do not use it automatically on every rug.
Can you remove pet urine from an area rug?
We can assess pet-related spots and odors. Contamination that has penetrated the backing or inner construction may require more specialized treatment than routine surface cleaning.
How much does area rug cleaning cost?
Standard synthetic rug cleaning is $1.50 per square foot, subject to the $125 minimum appointment total. Specialty rugs require individual pricing.
