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 Hoboken
Buildings from 2000 or later hold 33 percent of Hoboken homes, and in a newer apartment a flatweave often lies on a smooth floor where it slides and wrinkles; a felt pad holds it without marking the finish. Kilims, dhurries and soumaks are woven flat, with no pile, and they can shrink or pucker if they dry unevenly after a soaking, so they are dried flat and slowly. A hand tufted rug carries a glued backing that should not stay wet. Look at the back before booking, and write on the tag whether it is woven through, knotted or backed with cloth.
