01UNDERSTANDING YOUR PIECE

Care 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 Hell's Kitchen

Handmade rugs are seldom perfectly square: sides can wander and ends can differ in width, straight from the loom, and that shape stays after washing. What a careless wash can add is shrinkage or rippling, above all in kilims and dhurries, so the weave of each piece is studied before anything else. If you want a record of the shape, measure both ends and both sides before pickup and keep the numbers. Co-ops and condominiums hold two in five homes in Hell's Kitchen, and their rules often fix the hours when vendors may enter; add those hours to the tag so the pickup falls inside them, and mention whether the building asks for notice before items leave.
