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 Midtown
Co-op house rules can limit when vendors use the service elevator, and roughly a quarter of Midtown homes are co-ops; choose a pickup window inside those rules and note it on the tag. Handmade covers hand-knotted, hand-tufted and flatwoven rugs, and each behaves differently once wet. Flatweaves like kilims shrink or ripple if dried carelessly, and the glued backing of a tufted rug weakens if it stays wet. If an earlier cleaning left the rug smaller or wavy, say so when you book. In a Midtown tower the rug rides the service elevator rolled: a kilim rolls narrow and light, while a deep pile knotted rug the same size is heavy enough to ride standing on end.
