Rugs are more than just decorative floor coverings—they are cherished pieces that hold memories, enhance your home’s aesthetic, and often represent a significant investment. But let’s be honest: rugs endure a lot. They absorb it all—from muddy paws, food or drinks spills, to dust and allergens. To this end, proper maintenance and keeping your rug as clean as possible is essential. Welcome to The House of Rugs in Houston, Texas, where our experts reclaim the beauty of your rugs with professional care for your specific rug type.
Why Professional Rug Cleaning Matters
Think vacuuming your rug is enough? Think again! Although frequent vacuuming helps, it hardly scrapes the surface. Acting as filters, rugs ‘hold’ dirt, dust mites, pollen, mold spores and other airborne impurities deep within their fibers. Over time, this build-up not only dampens the rug’s vibrant colors, but could also affect indoor air quality.
Our Multi-Step, Specialized Rug Cleaning Process
When you bring your rug to our showroom in Houston, TX, here’s what you can expect:
- Inspection: We identify the key features that define a rug—its fiber type, weave structure, and dye stability. This helps to guarantee we use the most secure and efficient cleaning procedures.
- Pre-Treatment: Stubborn stains don’t stand a chance! Problem areas are pre-treated with biodegradable, plant-based cleaning agents that are tough to remove dirt while being gentle on the rug.
- Immersion Cleaning: Unlike your average carpet cleaners, we soak your rug in clean water in order to loosen and remove dirt and pollution ingrained deep into the strands. Think of it like a high-end spa treatment for your rug!
- Hand Washing: For those corners and tiny borders of your rug that you find difficult to reach, our technicians put on their aprons, roll up their sleeves, and wash your rug by hand—with care.
- Detergent Rinse: A second wash to ensure that any trace of dirt and detergent is washed off the rug, leaving it clean and residue-free.
- Drying: We expose your rug to natural sunlight in combination with temperature-controlled rooms to thoroughly dry it and reduce the chances of shrinking or mildew.
- Final Touches: Following drying, we use a brush and vacuum to fluff the fibers of the rug, giving it a good texture and appearance. Once we’re through, your rug will certainly look and feel as good as new—or even better!
