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 DUMBO
Handmade rugs differ widely in weight. A flatweave is thin and light, while a hand-tufted shag is thick and bulky, and the weight and the thickness of the roll decide which elevator can take it. Elevator buildings hold 40 percent of homes in the DUMBO area, and in a tower the usual choice is the service car at a booked hour. A hand-knotted rug is thinner than a shag but dense, so it can weigh as much. Tell us the construction, if you know it, with the width and length; if you are not sure, choose I'm not sure on the tag and we identify the rug at the assessment.
