Rug Cleaning in Northern Virginia

Professional Cleaning Services for All Types of Rugs

When it comes to taking care of your expensive Oriental rugs, you want to make sure you hire an expert with the training to care for specialty rugs. At Absolute Carpet Care, we have years of experience in cleaning specialty rugs, as well as their delicate construction materials. We can identify the best cleaning solution for your rug’s particular needs.

The most important step to cleaning a specialty rug is determining how it was made. Oriental, Persian, and some area rugs can be made by hand or by machine, with each type having its own cleaning needs. Proper fiber identification is also key to cleaning the rug as thoroughly as possible without damaging the quality. Absolute Carpet Care’s qualified technicians have the skills to identify your rug’s fibers, which helps us give your rugs the care they deserve.

If you have a rug that you'd like to have cleaned, don't rely on at-home cleaning and do-it-yourself care. Absolute Carpet Care has the skill necessary to properly clean and restore your rugs. Call us today to learn more or to request a free estimate. Don't forget to ask about our 10% senior and veteran discount!

Our Special Rug Cleaning Procedure

We can clean specialty, Oriental, and Turkish rugs with all kinds of construction materials, including cotton, wool, and silk. We also can clean a variety of synthetic rugs, such as fringed synthetics, bound synthetics, braided rugs, and more. We use a whole line of cleaning agents and stain removers specially formulated to safely and effectively clean more delicate fibers.

Oriental rugs are generally made with natural fibers and dyes, requiring them to be treated with special care. We use cleaning agents that have the right pH balance to prevent browning, color fading, discolorations, and other imperfections. We also adjust cleaning temperatures and pressures to meet the special requirements of each type of rug. After cleaning, we dry each rug with proper dehumidification and air movement. Fringes are then cleaned, treated, and, in some cases, bleached to ensure maximum beauty and brightness.

Due to the complexity of the cleaning process, most specialty rugs must be brought back to our plant for cleaning. The process from pick up to delivery generally takes 10 to 14 business days. However, some synthetic rugs can be cleaned on location. Contact us today to learn more about our rug-cleaning techniques!
