Rug Cleaning

Not all area rugs are the same and we know that every rug is unique from the fiber context , style of weaves and dyes that were used in creating area rug which dictate how they are cleaned. At DFC, we are able to adapt our unique cleaning process to ensure that each specific rug is brought back to its original beauty and its value protected.

1. A pre-inspection is performed both in your home and in our facility to first identify the fiber context to ensure that your rug will be cleaned using the best techniques for soil and stain removal, as we know, there are many different types of fibers such as wool, tencel, silk, viscose cotton & polyester at DFC we are experts at fiber & rug identification.
2. Up to 80% of all soil in a rug is dry soil. Shag rugs, woven rugs and wool hand knotted rugs are specifically designed to hide dry soil. We use several techniques to dust, agitate and vacuum the front and back of your rug to ensure maximum removal of dry soil.
3. Every step of our process is just as important as the next. Nothing is overlooked. Once the rug has been dusted and cleaned, the rug is put through our soft water rinse system. This is almost like a Jacuzzi for the rug! Soft water is combined with a soft jet of air that works to rid the oriental rug of the last bit of dirty water. Even when a rug has been thoroughly cleaned, the soft water rinse process is the only way to ensure that all contaminants are out of the Oriental or Persian area rug.
