Our professional rug cleaning service uses eco-friendly products and advanced techniques to remove dirt, stains, and allergens while preserving delicate fibers. We specialize in Persian, Oriental, and antique rugs, employing steam cleaning, dry methods, and hand-washing to maintain structural integrity. Each rug undergoes a 9-step process including inspection, pre-treatment, manual washing, and climate-controlled drying to ensure optimal results.
Carpet Repair
We offer comprehensive carpet repair services for tears, burns, water damage, and fraying. Our artisans use traditional weaving techniques to patch damaged areas, re-stretch loose carpets, and restore fringes. Specializing in Persian and heirloom rugs, we match materials and dyes precisely to maintain authenticity while extending the lifespan of valuable textiles through meticulous attention to detail.
