PHOTOGRAPHED BY OUR TEAMCare begins with
understanding.
Rug fringe is often the first area to show wear, yellowing, and soil accumulation. Because fringe fibers are typically cotton or silk and more exposed than pile fibers, they require dedicated attention. Our fringe cleaning process uses gentle hand-washing techniques and targeted brightening treatments to remove discoloration, restore a clean appearance, and give your rug a polished, finished look.
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.
Fringe Cleaning in Manhasset
Bleach whitens cotton fringe quickly and weakens it just as fast, until the threads snap at the first tug of a vacuum, so keep household whiteners away from the ends. Only 16 percent of homes here share a building with others, and in any home the fringe at the door end takes the most dirt. The fringe of a knotted rug is its warp, holding the end knots, so frayed threads are left uncut and pointed out to you. Browned fringe is lightened by hand with gentle agents, and you hear first how much it should brighten, since some old browning is there to stay.
