Our 5-Step Area Rug Cleaning Method

Step 1: Oriental & area rug cleaning inspection

Whether you have an Oriental rug or any other type of area rug, our very first step is discussing the cleaning process with you and addressing your concerns. We visually inspect your area rug to make sure there are no underlying problems. We also do this to use our trained eyes to make note of any spots or stains. Sometimes on intricate Oriental styles, small spots are hard to see.

Step 2: Remove the dry soil from your area rug

Luv Your Rug uses a patented system to safely and effectively remove years of loose debris from your area rug that regular vacuuming can never remove. This is a crucial step before any cleaning products are introduced. Our professional area rug duster machine produces 43,000 harmonic vibrations per minute to loosen dirt!

Step 3: Use safe Oriental and area rug cleaning products

Depending on the soil level and/or any special problems your area rug may have, Luv Your Rug will use industry accepted professional cleaning agents to loosen greasy soils, address odor problems, and leave your area rug clean and fresh with a thorough rinsing afterward.

Step 4: Do additional spotting work on your area rug

Luv Your Rug uses professional spot removal products to work on any stains that were not removed during the initial area rug cleaning procedure. At this time, we also will do extra work on your fringes to make them nice and white again.

Step 5: Dry your area rug, vacuum again, groom it, wrap it

We will use high volume fans and dehumidification to dry your area rugs thoroughly after cleaning. Once done, we will give it a final vacuuming and then comb out the face yarns to make them all nice for you. At this point we will apply a stain protector if you purchased one. When it's all dry, we will roll it up for you and wrap it up safely.

Now you will surely Luv Your Rug again!

Questions we get about area rug cleaning

Like this new batch of a customer's area rugs, Luv Your Rug labels your area rugs so we know which belongs to you, as well as keep customer rugs separate from others in the event of odors and other problems.

Want your Oriental rug or other type or area rug protected with a Stain Protector? Ask us about it and we can apply this effective product after cleaning.

How long will the area rug cleaning take? Most of our area rugs are cleaned and packaged in about a week. For problematic rugs or those with severe odor problems, it may take a little longer.

Do you offer mothproofing for my wool Oriental rug? Yes, we do!

Do you repair Oriental rugs? We work together with other tradesmen to perform many types of area rug repair.

Is area rug cleaning expensive? It can be, depending on your rug, but you can immediately save 20% or more if you drop it off and pick it up yourself. See our price page for more details.

Do you guarantee pet odor removal? No area rug cleaner could ever really guarantee you this because of the nature of pet odor. We do have unique processes to address this problem, and can remove it the majority of the time. If it is really extensive or old, it always lessens your chance. Sometimes the rug's dye becomes bleached out by pet urine too. Unfortunately not much can be done about this other than a costly repair. Please see this document for further information.
