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 Manhasset
Needlepoint rugs are stitched by hand in wool on a cotton canvas, and they distort easily: wet unevenly, the canvas pulls the pattern out of square, so they are washed with little water, dried flat and blocked back into shape. With only 6 percent of homes here in buildings from 2000 or later, a handmade piece may have spent decades in one room, and a needlepoint or a flatweave that has already shrunk or rippled should be noted on the tag. Turn the rug over to see how it was made, and mention any washing done at home.
