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 Queens
Handmade covers knotted pile rugs, hand-tufted rugs with a glued cloth backing and flatwoven kilims and dhurries, and the three take water differently. A tufted backing weakens if it stays wet, and a flatweave can ripple or shrink if it dries unevenly, which is why the weave is identified before any washing. In the 14 percent of Queens homes that are in buildings from 2000 or later, floors are often hard and smooth, and a flatweave has no pile to grip them; a thin pad under it stops the creep and spreads the wear.
