Your Rug Has a Story. We Help You Keep Telling It.
There is something different about an Oriental rug. They are not the type of rug that is just randomly bought on a weekend shopping trip. Most of them have come with your family for years, have been passed down from one generation to the next, or have been purchased for one reason: because they caught your eye the moment you first set foot in the shop in which they were displayed. Every knot in these rugs takes hours of craftsmanship, some even spend several generations weaving these rugs from wool and silk fibers. Thus, when an Oriental rug develops stains, begins to emit a musty smell, or begins to look dull from years of use, it is more than just a rug that needs to have oriental rug cleaning in Raritan. At Central Oriental Cleaners in Raritan, NJ, we understand the significance of the rugs that many families own. Over the years we have worked alongside families who all have a love for their rugs, as they are the type of rug that is often passed down from parent to child or from grandparent to parent. Unlike rug drop off shops that may treat all rugs in the same fashion, we take the time to understand the type of rug that you own and what it needs in order to return to its former state of beauty.
The Types of Rugs that We Work With
We work with Persian rugs, Turkish rugs, Chinese rugs, Pakistani rugs, Oriental rugs and other rugs that contain silk, wool, and wool-silk blend fibers. Additionally, we work with antique rugs that have been passed down through the generations (and require more care than modern rugs) as well as modern rugs. Trust us with oriental rug cleaning in Raritan.
The Everyday Problems That Customers Bring to Us
Some of the most common reasons that customers bring their rugs to Central Oriental Rug Cleaners include situations such as dog accidents on the rug, spilled juice from a birthday party, wine spills during holidays, excessive wear in high traffic areas of the rug, holes in the rug from moths, and more. While these types of situations may appear as if they are messy and embarrassing to the owner of the rug, they are common problems that we are able to fix at our oriental rug cleaning in Raritan shop. If you are concerned about any of these rug issues, you are not alone, and we have encountered each of these problems before.
Our Process for Oriental Rug Cleaning in Raritan
Upon arrival of your rug at our facility in Raritan, NJ, we will inspect it to determine its fiber content, dyes, and the general way in which the rug is made. Each rug is different, so understanding how to properly care for it is the first step in returning your rug to its former glory. After performing a deep dusting for the rug to remove any dry soil that has accumulated within the rug over time, we will begin the hand washing process of the rug. Most rugs contain the amount of dirt that is surprising to customers during this step of the process. The rug will be hand washed with a pH balanced solution that is appropriate for the rug’s fiber and dyes. The fringe of the rug will be cleaned separately, as it is the most fragile portion of the rug. Additionally, we will take care to remove any odor that may be present within the rug, especially if the odor originated from a pet that has decorated the rug with their smell. Finally, once the rug is wet, it will be allowed to dry in our facilities. Many customers are unaware of the damage that can be done to an Oriental rug if it is rushed through the drying process or if too much heat is used on the rug. Thus, we ensure that the rug is completely dry prior to returning it to the customer. Before returning the rug to the customer, it will pass through a quality check by one of our oriental rug cleaning in Raritan team members.
Why Oriental Rug cleaning in raritan is handled differently
Because Oriental rugs are not manufactured like the typical carpet products that are sold in most home goods stores, Oriental rugs often are handmade and composed of natural fibers such as wool, silk, or a blend of both natural fibers. Additionally, those rugs are dyed with dyes and methods that have been used for centuries in the creation of Oriental rugs. The craftsmanship behind these rugs is undeniable and beautiful, but also sensitive to the wrong type of treatment. For example, if the rug is treated with the wrong type of chemicals, excessive heat, or the wrong type of water, the rug may develop issues such as color bleeding, fiber weakening, or even fraying of the rug’s fringe. We have seen rugs developed and damaged by the common attempts at deep oriental rug cleaning in Raritan. Colors may have blown, the rug may have shrunk, or the fibers of the rug may have begun to break down due to inappropriate rug treatment. Each of these scenarios is upsetting to behold, but avoidable if the rug is cared for by an individual that understands the individual rug that exists in each family. So you don’t need to hesitate to call us for oriental rug cleaning in Raritan.
