PHOTOGRAPHED BY OUR TEAMCare begins with
understanding.
Handmade rugs, whether hand-knotted, hand-tufted, or flatwoven, represent a personal investment in craftsmanship. Each piece has unique characteristics that demand individualized attention. Our specialists examine the weave structure, fiber blend, and dye method of every handmade rug before designing a custom cleaning plan. This ensures the artisan's work is preserved while delivering a deep, revitalizing clean.
We discuss the condition, recommended treatment and expected outcome with you. The appropriate method is selected after inspection; not every treatment is suitable for every rug.
Handmade Rug Cleaning in Bay Ridge
Hooked and braided rugs made by hand have weak points of their own. A hooked rug is built on a backing of burlap or cotton that grows brittle with age, and a braided rug is held together by stitches between its coils, which can break when the rug is soaked and pulled. Look the rug over before booking: loose coils, broken stitches or a backing that crackles when the rug is rolled should be mentioned, because they change how it is washed. Every handmade piece is checked for its construction first and dried flat under control. Bay Ridge has 87,293 homes in 26,829 residential buildings, only a few homes to a building. Look a handmade rug over in good light where it lies before we come.
