The Hidden Dangers of Cleaning Rugs at Home

  • Fiber Damage: Using the wrong cleaning methods or harsh chemicals can harm your rug's delicate fibers, resulting in fraying, fading, and weakening.
  • Color Bleeding: Applying unsuitable cleaning solutions or too much moisture can lead to dye bleeding, ruining the vibrant colors and intricate designs of your rug.
  • Mold & Mildew Growth: Excessive moisture during cleaning can create the perfect environment for mold and mildew, damaging the fibers and posing health risks.
  • Shrinkage: Using the wrong cleaning techniques can cause your rug to shrink, changing its original shape. This reduces its beauty, appeal and integrity.
  • Improper Drying: Trying to clean your rug at home can result in uneven drying. This can cause mold and mildew growth, leading to unpleasant musty odors.
  • Residue Buildup: Failing to properly rinse your rug can leave cleaning residues behind, attracting dirt and grime, making your rug appear dull and dirty.

Why Professional Rug Cleaning is Better

There are many reasons why getting your rugs cleaned by professionals is a better option:

Knowledge & Advanced Tools

Professionals have the necessary skills and equipment to assess your rug and use the best cleaning methods to ensure no further damage.

Deep Cleaning

Expert rug cleaners deep clean to remove dirt, allergens, and stains that have collected deep in your rugs that typical home cleaning can't clean up.

Stain Treatment

Rug technicians have specialized tools and products to take care of even the most stubborn stains without causing damage, restoring your rugs.

Preservation of Value

Getting professional rug cleaning services can significantly extend your rug's lifespan and maintain its appearance and market value.

Time-saving

Opting for professional cleaning allows you to focus your time and energy for other important activities. Leave it to experts to clean your rugs without worry.

Health Improvement

Professional cleaning eliminates allergens and bacteria on your rugs and lowers asthma and allergies. It also improves your indoor air quality.

When To Get Your Rugs Professionally Cleaned?

We highly recommend getting your rugs professionally cleaned every 12 to 18 months. It should be done more frequently if you have pets, children, or your rug is in a high-foot traffic area. When you see signs of wear, fading, or unpleasant smells, it's best to get professional cleaning as quickly as possible. Regular cleaning is a great habit, as it not only preserves the aesthetic appeal of your rugs but also enhances their durability. It also helps keep your indoor air quality in optimal condition. Choosing professional cleaning services for your rugs is a smarter choice for a healthier and more beautiful living space.
