Orange County Rug Cleaning Company

For over twenty years, we have been Orange County’s #1 area rug cleaning company. This is because of our extensive knowledge, state-of-the-art technology, and excellent customer experiences. We truly treat every customer like family and every area rug like one of our own.

We hand-wash every rug, from antique Persian and Oriental rugs, to the high-end and expensive Restoration Hardware rugs—and absolutely everything in between. We combine old-world techniques with modern-day equipment, to achieve optimum results and the highest customer satisfaction. We hand-wash every rug in the same manner as the rug was made. This allows us to preserve each rug’s unique fibers and still accentuate its beautiful features. While this method takes longer than others, we feel it is the only way to care for your rugs. Area rugs are delicate, valuable and often meaningful timepieces, and we believe they should be treated as such.

We treat each rug in our state-of-the-art cleaning facility, which is fully equipped with everything from a centrifuge to a temperature-controlled drying room. Our team knows the proper cleaning techniques for even the most delicate of rugs. We utilize a custom method for each rug, depending upon the construction of the rug and its fibers. Every day we clean dozens of handmade, machine-made, Persian, oriental, viscose and silk area rugs. We have the skills, expertise, and facility to properly clean, and revitalize, any rug.

We utilize a multi-step wash process in order to make sure each area rug is properly cared for and gets as clean as possible.

Our Delicate Multi-Step Wash Process

Pre-wash Inspection – Before any cleaning takes place, our experts lead a cautious inspection in order to determine the best cleaning technique(s) to use on the rug, depending upon the material that the rug is made of. Next, we analyze the state of your rug by assessing worn areas, profoundly inserted dirt, and/or other extraordinary needs. For example, if your rug may need repair.

Pre-washing/Dusting –  Using a commercial vacuum, we are able to remove any and all large particles. Then, by using highly compressed air, we thoroughly remove all the dust particles and any debris. If these micro-particles are not removed, they can eventually wear away at the fibers in your area rug, so this is definitely an important step in the process.

Our method of rug cleaning ensures that each area rug is completely safe from dye transfers, and will remove all dirt from the rug. We apply a color stabilizing agent to the area rug to make sure all dyes are stable before the rug washing begins.

First Stage Wash – Next, we begin to remove any dirt, soil, or spotting by washing the rug down with water. We make sure to pay attention to the backing and fringe of each area rug, so as to ensure that every fiber receives a deep cleaning.

Second Stage Wash – In this stage, we apply a gentle organic, pH neutral shampoo (which is made for treating natural fibers) in order to break down all the grease and dirt in the rug. At this time we will also take care of any spots and stains. If the area rug has pet stains or pet urine, we will treat these as well. We then rinse away all shampoos and cleaning agents. The rug is then placed into a centrifuge that is able to remove any extra liquid or substance that could not be removed by hand. 

(Our competitors tend to use a rug cleaning method that involves steam-cleaning extraction. This method leaves your area rug with high amounts of soap residue that will, unfortunately, attract dirt ten times quicker. This method may also shrink and damage rug fibers.)

Grooming and Drying – We groom every area rug by combing the pile, and the fringe, in its proper direction. Once combed, the rug is hung to dry in our on-site, climate-controlled facility. Paying attention to every rug’s construction, we evaluate the level of heat, airflow, and temperature specifically needed for each area rug. The rug will then hang dry over night. 

Fragrance Scenting – A light fragrance is applied to the rug in order to further sanitize and freshen it. This is particularly noticeable, and delightful, to those whose rugs needed to be treated for pet urine.

Final Inspection – When conducting the final inspection, we make sure that the area rug is fully dried, and as clean as possible, or we will work through the entire seven-step process all over again.

Once your area rug has finished our multi-step cleaning process, we highly suggest having it protected with our Rug Guard Fiber Protectant. Rug Guard is a treatment we apply to your rug after cleaning. It will protect your area rug from stains, and extend the time frame between now and your next cleaning.
