Oriental rugs and area rugs are often investment pieces, with a fine area or antique rug sometimes costing thousands of dollars. Considering their price, it’s no wonder so many people get nervous about cleaning area rugs themselves.

That said, with all the foot traffic area rugs receive, it’s important to clean them regularly to lift dirt, remove allergens, and kill bacteria. Because area rugs can be fragile and costly to replace, it’s a good idea to call in the experts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Oriental and Area Rug Cleaning


How much does it cost to clean an Oriental rug?


The cost of cleaning an Oriental rug depends on its size and any additional treatments that are needed, like deodorizing or pet stain removal. 


How often should you clean Oriental rugs?


It’s recommended that you have your Oriental rugs cleaned once a year if they get regular foot traffic and about every 2 years for rugs that do not get as much use. If you have pets or allergies, annual cleaning is ideal no matter how much foot traffic your rugs get.


Can you remove urine from an Oriental rug?


Yes, pet stains can be removed from an Oriental rug, but it takes a great deal of care and expertise to accomplish this without either leaving some of the stain and odor behind or damaging the rug. 


How often should area rugs be cleaned?


Area rugs should be professionally cleaned once a year.


Can you shampoo an area rug?


Some area rugs can be shampooed, depending on the material they’re made from. We can also provide cleaning services for area rugs that are dry clean only.
