PHOTOGRAPHED BY OUR TEAMCare begins with
understanding.
Silk is among the most luxurious and delicate rug fibers. Its luminous sheen and fine texture require cleaning methods that avoid excessive moisture, harsh chemicals, and mechanical agitation. Our silk rug specialists use precision low-moisture techniques and pH-balanced solutions formulated specifically for silk fibers, restoring their natural luster without compromising structural integrity or color brilliance.
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.
Silk Rug Cleaning in Park Slope
Many rugs sold as silk are viscose, a fiber made from wood pulp and also labeled art silk, bamboo silk or rayon. The two look alike on the floor and behave very differently in water: viscose loses much of its strength when wet, can turn yellow, and its pile crushes and mats where people walk. Check the label on the back of the rug and copy what it says into the notes on the pickup tag; we confirm the fiber before any cleaning in either case. Until pickup, blot spills with a dry white towel and keep water off the pile. With 60 percent of Park Slope homes in walk-ups or houses, a silk rug here usually comes down a stair, rolled and wrapped.
