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 Tribeca
Cotton fringe can turn brown when a wet rug dries slowly, as residues in the cotton wick out to the ends, so a rug soaked by a leak should be lifted and dried flat quickly. Many of Tribeca's 622 residential buildings are converted lofts, and some have rough old floorboards that catch at fringe and fray it, and a thin rug pad keeps the ends clear of them. If you see threads pulled loose at an end, point them out on the pickup tag so we can check the knots beside them before the rug is cleaned. If the rest of the rug needs washing too, say so in the Anything else box.
