YOUR RUG CLEANING PROBLEMS

Tibetan Rug

WOW i have just finished cleaning an amazing hand-knotted Tibetan rug a mix of wool and silk.
What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship, the foundation colour of the rug is royal red and wool and the pattern is ivory silk. This was one of my favourite rugs to clean. The dirt and grit that i removed from it using my rugbadger was unbelievable, almost half a freezer bag full.

This is the most important part of cleaning a rug, is removing all the dry soil. If this is not done once its wet all the soil will turn to "mud" and make the rug look awful. The dry soil literally acts like a knife and tears the fibres from the rug. This is why its so very important for rug owners to vacumm their rugs on a regular basis removing all of this dry soil really does increase the life of your rug.

I really do enjoy cleaning hand-knotted rugs and restoring the softness and colours through our cleaning process. You can really appriecate the time and skill it takes to make a rug like these.

Well im off back into the cleaning studio to get started onn the next rug.
Until next time

  1. Cool! I never taught that wool and silk match, such a beauty! I do agree by the way that the soil ruins the shape and beauty of the rug and true to the carpet as well. It is very important to restore the softness and colors of the rug in carpet cleaning. Montgomery county is known for having pretty crafted rugs and beautifully pattern carpets. Aside from that the folks are also known to be rug and carpet doctors.

    I bet that it was quite a big surprise when you came back from work and saw that all walls are covered with crayons. And how would you be able to get rid of this mess? Actually, very easy! Don’t panic, just grab some toothpaste and roll up your sleeves. Use a damp cloth to apply it and rub carefully. In the end just wipe off the surface with a clean wet towel. It’s not so difficult, is it? carpet cleaning London
