Oriental Rug Cleaning Process
Step 1 – Pre-Wash Inspection
We inspect each rug by using Xenon lighting to search for any previous conditions. After a rug wash you may find that you had soil cover up by dye variations, fiber staining, prior dye bleeding, worn area and also white knots. Our inspections will allow us to see details of any fringe issues, pet urine, any insect damage or other issues that may bring about concerns. After the inspection is through we will then have pictures taken to then be able to discuss in details with you solutions and options before moving forward.

Step 2 – Color and Dye Test
When a rug comes in for treatment, we first do a very vital step before anything else. We search if customer’s rug may have pre-existing conditions such as fugitive dyes, excess dye application which occurs when the rug was being made, if the rug as been exposed to any pervious cleaners or any high heat procedures, any past in home cleanings or even any pet urine issues.
