Bring Your Rug Back to Life
We designed our 7 step Rug Cleaning Process to ensure your rugs are given the expert treatment. Your rugs will go thorough a thorougher detox which will rejuvenate and restore their original beauty.
Also we don’t just take the dirt from the surface, we remove every last bit of soil from the entire rug, both sides.

7 Steps to A Beautiful Rug
1. Identifying
Your rug is firstly measured, and tested for colour fastness. Then it will be inspected for any pre existing issues such as pile reversal, pet urine issues, and general damage. A report is made, photograph taken and attached to the client file.
Q. What will happen if when you inspect my rug you find you can not remove the stains?
2. Dusting
The rug will be “dusted” using the “ Rug Badger”, a machine that gently beats the back of the rug which allows all the dry soil to fall out where all abrasive grit (which prematurely ages rugs), hair and any non water soluble soil is removed. The rug is vacuumed and is now ready for the cleaning process to begin.
Q. I have watched your video and it looks like the machine works very well but does the beating machine damage the rug in any way?
3. Immersive cleaning
The washing process can now begin by firstly placing the rug in to the wash pit. The pit will be filled with water and a “rug roller” is used to squeegee the water through the rug. The rug is then thoroughly washed on both sides with a specially designed Oriental rug shampoo, and once again the “rug roller” is used to ensure that the shampoo passes right the way through the rug. Any fringes will be cleaned and detailed by hand.
Q. Can every rug be washed like this and wont the colours rug if gets too wet?
4. Rapid moisture removal
The rug is then rinsed and the moisture extracted using The Water Claw to remove all the excess water is pulled out of the rug leaving it as dry as possible. Rapid moisture removal is essential to eliminate the risk of colours bleeding into each other.
Q. Can every rug be washed like this and wont the colours rug if gets too wet?
5. Rug Grooming
The rug is then groomed and pile set to its original position, (which is always running down to the bottom of the rug) and placed in our specially designed drying room. It will be left in there over night to dry, sometimes longer for very thick or shag pile rugs.
Q. How do you know if the rug is completely dry before wrapping it?
6. Detailing
The rug will then be closely inspected for any spots/stains which will be treated including any extra fringe detailing. Any additional treatments will then usually be applied at this point and then will once again return to the drying room for the final time.
Q. Don’t all the spot’s and stains come out in the was ?
7. Finishing Touches
We will then vacuum the rug to remove any fine fibres that may have shed and groom the rug one last time before it is wrapped. We use recycled brown wrapping paper to wrap the rug as it is a breathable wrap should the rug need to be stored for any period of time.
Q. Can I still have the stain guard applied even if I decide to have it after it passed this step or is it too late?
