Beyond Vacuuming: 5 Reasons to Get Your Area Rug Professionally Cleaned

Area rugs are beautiful investments, adding warmth, color, and texture to your floors. However, they endure heavy traffic and act as giant filters for your home.

Simple vacuuming and spot cleaning are basic service methods that cannot address the deep, trapped soil and contaminants that accumulate over time. To protect your investment and ensure a healthy environment, professional cleaning is essential.

Technique Flooring & Restoration offers award-winning service and certified expertise for superior quality area rug cleaning.

1. Protection of Your Investment and Fiber Health

Area rugs, especially those made of wool, silk, or fine synthetics, are susceptible to premature wear. Soil and dust are abrasive; they act like microscopic sandpaper when ground into the fibers by foot traffic.

• Preventing Abrasion: Professional cleaning uses techniques that deeply flush out this abrasive dirt, extending the life of the rug’s fibers and maintaining its luxurious appearance. This is a matter of preservation, not just appearance.

2. Removal of Deeply Embedded Soil and Contaminants

Rugs trap everything from pet dander and tracked-in grime to dust mites and pollen. Over time, these contaminants settle deep into the foundation of the rug, well beyond the reach of a household vacuum.

Deep Dusting and Washing:

Our experienced professionals use specialized dusting equipment that vibrates loose the embedded dry soil before the washing process begins.

This superior quality preparation ensures the cleaning solution can effectively treat the fibers, removing pollutants that affect indoor air quality.

3. Odor Elimination with Certified Expertise

Pet accidents, spills, and general mildew can leave lingering, unpleasant odors. These odors often remain trapped in the backing and foundation of the rug, requiring specialized pet odor treatment.

Odor Neutralization:

Our IICRC-certified technicians are trained to use appropriate, pH-balanced cleaning agents and odor neutralizers that attack the odor source, not just mask it.

This certified expertise ensures true odor elimination and a customer satisfaction guaranteed result.

4. Color Restoration and Stain Treatment

When a rug is deeply soiled, its colors often appear dull, muted, or “muddy.” Professional cleaning restores the vibrancy and clarity of the colors.

Precision Spot Treatment:

We treat stubborn stains using safe, effective methods tailored to the rug’s specific fiber type and dye stability.

This careful process is far superior to quick fix home remedies, which often lead to irreversible color bleeding or fiber damage.
