PHOTOGRAPHED BY OUR TEAMCare begins with
understanding.
Antique rugs require an extraordinarily careful approach. Age, natural dyes, and delicate fibers demand cleaning techniques that prioritize preservation above all else. Our specialists evaluate each antique piece for colorfastness, structural integrity, and fiber fragility before selecting a cleaning protocol. We use gentle, low-agitation methods that remove decades of accumulated soil while honoring the character and patina that make your rug a treasure.
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.
Antique Rug Cleaning in Garden City
A small hole or a split in an antique rug can grow during a wash as the foundation swells and shrinks, so damage like that is found first and sets how gently the rug is washed. In the prewar houses that hold 35 percent of homes here, antiques often lie in rooms with radiators, and the edge nearest a radiator dries and splits first. Look over the rug before pickup for holes, splits or loose binding, and mark them on the tag or with a strip of painter's tape on the back. You hear what washing can do for the rug before any water is used.
