Oriental Rug Cleaning - High Traffic and Pets

If you have pets or unusually high traffic, you should have your fine rugs professionally cleaned every year.

If the rug is in an environment where smoking takes place, you should have it cleaned every 6 months. It's important to note that rugs can be dirty long before they look dirty and that wool rugs, in particular, can succumb to moth infestation, if not cleaned regularly.

Leather Wipes

#‎LeatherWipes‬ are intended for spot cleaning only; leather wipes can cause irreparable damage to nubuck and aniline leathers so, if you want your leather upholstery to last... Don't use leather wipes!

Wall-to-wall carpet cleaners without specialized training and equipment clean your rugs the same way they clean wall-to-wall carpet. They use hot water extraction, otherwise known as steam cleaning.

This allows them to offer a very low price, but it's about the most harmful thing you can do to a wool, cotton, or silk rug. For natural fibers, hand-woven or hand-knotted rugs, and high-quality machine-woven rugs, there is no substitute for thorough hand washing and proper drying.
