Which Method of Rug Cleaning is Best?

​

It’s obvious that trying to clean a rug yourself, especially when dealing with a unique or specialty Persian rug, isn’t the right idea. So, which method of rug cleaning in Canberra is best for you? The Rug Spa stands by the traditional, 8-step rug cleaning method. We always consider colour loss maintenance, rug odour and stain removal treatments, and the correct rug drying procedures. If any of the 8 steps in the procedures are left out, you can run the risk of premature damage and/or deterioration later on down the track. These are just a few of the processes we incorporate into our thorough rug cleaning service.

 

We will tailor-make a professional rug cleaning process to suit your particular rug. Here are 8 Reasons to Choose The Rug Spa Carpet Cleaning

 

1.  A no-obligation free assessment and pick up appointment is made.

 

2.  Rugs are checked for any stains or repairs to avoid further damage.

 

3.  We carry out a thorough vacuum, this ensures that we vibrate out as many fine dirt particles as possible from the back of the rug to the front.

 

4.  Pre-test for colour fastness, and any potentially difficult stains will be pre-treated with special solutions to increase chances of stain removal.  The fringes are also pre-treated. 

 

5.  The soil extraction process does depend on the type of rug,  this falls generally under 3 categories steam cleaning, dry cleaning or hand cleaned.

 

6.  All rugs are then deodorised and neutralised before hand grooming the pile.

 

7.  Then rugs are re-inspected and dried using professional air movers in a controlled environment. (Optional) rug protection or pet sanitising can also be applied at this stage. (Inquire about rug optional treatments when we visit.)

​

8. Finally your rugs are prepared and marked for delivery.

​

Carpet Moth Treatments And Prevention.

​

Most fine area rugs are made of natural wool fibres and over time can lose their natural oily properties causing them to become drier, this can attract carpet moths that will eat at the fibres. Although there is nothing you can do about the age of your rug or possible damage that may have already occurred, you can prevent your antique rugs from becoming a moths next meal.  A clean rug will not be nearly as appetising. The Rug Spa recommends that you regularly inspect and vacuum your rugs- making sure to remove any solid furniture to allow you to vacuum more than just visible traffic areas. Carpet moths lay their eggs in dark, damp, and hidden areas and unfortunately, Canberra's climate allows for carpet moths to thrive. 

​

We also recommend rotating your rugs every 6 months or so and inspecting the underside. In addition to preventing a moth infestation, rotating your rug will prevent and evenly distribute the amount of foot traffic wear your rug receives in different areas. Some other ways to prevent carpet moths from damaging your rugs include; Making sure your home environment is kept dry, with effective ventilation at all times. Its important, that when storing your unused rugs that you keep them up off the ground, and preferably securely wrapped in plastic. These are very important precautions to take during your time away from home or your rug. If you suspect your rug has suffered any severity of carpet moth infestation, don't hesitate to contact us swiftly so we can get started on the carpet moth treatment on your rug before any or furthermore damage occurs.
