If you have invested in a high-quality Oriental rug, or you have inherited an Oriental rug with a lot of value, proper cleaning and care is the only way to protect your investment and the value of your rug. Oriental rugs are hand-made, and improper cleaning can result in fading, dyes bleeding and other damage.
The best and only preferred way for cleaning Oriental rugs is to allow a professional to clean them at a plant specially designed for cleaning handmade Oriental rugs. Oriental rug cleaning is an extensive process, and should only be left to a skilled professional to prevent damage.
At PCS Niagara, we are fully equipped to properly clean your Oriental rug. The Oriental rug cleaning process is extensive and labor-intensive. Oriental rugs collect dirt deep within the fibers, and the dirt must be removed using a special vacuum or dusting machine that can access and release those embedded dirt particles.
After much of the dirt is removed from your Oriental rug, the rug is thoroughly washed. At PCS Niagara, the rug is placed in a wash floor or a large wash pit that allows the individual cleaning the Oriental rug to thoroughly pre-treat, shampoo and rinse the rug. The rug is then laid out to dry.
Because dirt particles as well as water particles can remain trapped in the fibers of the rug, off-site cleaning at a plant is the only recommended method for cleaning Oriental rugs. If you are interested in Oriental rug cleaning in Niagara Falls, PCS Niagara has the equipment and expertise needed to clean your Oriental rug without damaging your investment.
After cleaning the Oriental rug, it must be laid out or hung to dry in a controlled environment. Improper drying of Oriental rugs can result in fading, bleeding dyes, buckling and even mildew. They should not be dried in the sun, and will need to dry thoroughly before it can be returned to your home.
