Area Rug Cleaning | Oriental Rug Cleaning Boca Raton
DELIVERING AMAZING RESULTS FOR OVER 30 YEARSCALL 561-475-1990Area Rug Cleaning & Oriental Rug CleaningNone are truly the same and this stands the most true when it comes to Antiques or Orientals. Why? Because the majority of them were handmade by experts in their native countries and carry with them an intricate design that can rarely be called similar to another.
Some of our most frequent cleaning services involve Oriental hand-knotted ones – generally Chinese, Indian or Persian. Some of our customers even have a tribal area rug that can truly be called priceless, and are extremely wary of cleaning them with the wrong methods, and rightly so. Cleaning the unmistakable Flokati, which comes from the far away mountains of Greece, is yet another one of our specialties. Since we clean all Antiques and Orientals in Boca Raton, we also take care of ones that weren't handmade but were instead tufted or even made with machines, usually those with a cotton back. While these don't take nearly as much time to create as those made by hand, don't be mistaken thinking that they're easy to manufacture – some imported tufted styles that we clean are among the most beautiful ones out there. Wilton, Axminister and Karastan are examples of high-quality area rug manufacturers we clean regularly. Other tufted ones we work with include those made with fine Belgian wool as well as the spectacular Turkish Kilim designs.

AREA RUG CLEANING BOCA RATON, FLORIDA
Every specialty Oriental rug cleaning company in Boca Raton worth its salt works under the same principle: machine cleaning isn't safe or advisable when cleaning more expensive ones. More likely than not, the cheap and sturdy average area rug cleaning service is going to handle a machine's spinning and beating well, and will come out no worse for wear. Things are a bit different when talking Oriental ones, however.

One could say the amount of work that goes into creating a handmade Oriental makes every piece worth careful hand washing – at least, we like to think so. Yes, machine cleaning is a lot quicker and involves much less hassle, but we're not here to rush things – our job is to clean it using methods tailor-made to guarantee its preservation.
What even specialty cleaners often fail to realize is that things are rarely as simple as just hand-washing it. Even before you take the exact origin into account, multiple factors need to be considered during the initial inspection in your Boca Raton residence, such as:

To know where your Oriental comes from, we'll have to have a look ourselves when we see it in person. Today, most Orientals we work with come from China, be they tufted or entirely handmade. Depending on their age and origin, handmade Chinese rugs can carry the weight of an entire region or even a dynasty in their design. This makes proper handling imperative – we consider these Orientals historical items of great value, and we treat them as such. Even in the absence of a close examination, we can tell you that your Oriental will require a slow and meticulous hand-washing process. We're very picky about anything other than water coming into contact with them as we clean it. In fact, we're even picky about the amount of water used – some will respond best to submersion while others will need slow manual area rug cleaning service with minimized moisture. We strive to treat them the best we possibly can.

It's said that weavers of Oriental place entire generations in the rug's appearance – after having worked with so many of these types, we're inclined to agree. Therefore, when turning to us for your cleaning service needs, you'll know that no part of your cultural masterpiece will get lost to history due to poor handling. While Chinese types are most commonly referred to as Oriental, there are many other Eastern countries in this category (like India), each with their own method of weaving and specific local materials used.

Antique Area Rug Cleaning
When most people think of antiques, three main properties immediately spring to mind: expensive, delicate and unique. There's certainly no fault in this way of thinking – every antique one we've worked with had all three of these attributes along with several others, all combining to form a piece with no equal. More than mere decorations, antique area rugs are parts of history. They carry the bearings of a certain time long gone, be it a good or a bad one. The history of people are found throughout its design, as are various rare motifs and colors. A trained eye will always be able to look at it and discern where it's coming from and how it was made.
We take this a step further: each antique rug's individual state is of utmost importance to us as we gear towards our process. Interestingly enough, a thousand year-old one could be in a much better state than one that has been around for 'mere' centuries. Age tells us a lot, but it's just the beginning – the individual factors to consider are too numerous to list, and every one of them could completely alter our initial idea on how to best treat it. While we go to great lengths to clean any one that comes our way, we know that our work is cut out for us the moment we are asked to clean an antique one. Here, we become more than cleaners in Boca Raton FL: we become preservers of historical value. We enjoy the added responsibility, and we will always justify the faith that the antique's owner has placed in us. For any antique area rug cleaning service in Boca Raton, be sure to contact us.

Persian Rug Cleaning
|
More than any other, Persians are thought to have mystical properties. The flying area rugs of legend come from no other place than Persia, but the myth of their flying ability isn't the only thing that makes them legendary – it's the unique and intricate design of it, always heavily based on the specific age in which it was made, as well as the superb crafting quality.
While your Persian rug might not help you save any money on plane tickets, it will add charm and beauty to your home or office like very few decorative items can. Because many of them are large, their owners will sometimes choose to use them as floor covering in traffic areas, even in cases of antiques or expensive pieces. It's easy to see how this makes Persian rugs especially susceptible to stains, dirt accumulation and wear-and-tear. |

Silk Area Rug Cleaning
Even in the face of ever-increasing industrialization, many natural materials remain impossible to replace, both for aesthetic and functional purposes. Silk is certainly among those that first come to mind: its deluxe texture is nearly impossible to mistake, which is why it's long-been considered the most luxurious fabric to own. While some opt to show their love for the good life through silk suits or gowns, others turn to silk rugs to showcase their eye for style. You'll be hard-pressed to find a silk rug owner in Boca Raton, or anywhere for that matter, that lets people walk over his prized possession – they're used as a status symbol that enriches one's home and gives it that 'next level' appearance.

With us, you'll accomplish the what seemed impossible thus far: keeping your silk rugs perfectly clean while avoiding any loss of appearance whatsoever.

Wool Rug Cleaning
|
To those unfamiliar with area rug materials, it can seem a bit strange that wool maintains its popularity in present day. The material is notoriously hard to obtain and therefore expensive, requiring year-round care for free-range sheep. To yield top-notch wool, the sheep need to be treated well and must enjoy good physical and mental health, which is why wool farming is a full-time job.
How is it, then, that wool is so ubiquitous, when seemingly-infinite other materials are easier to cultivate? The answer is simple: there are very few materials of equal quality, durability and longevity, especially when discussing the manufacturing. |
Wool rugs are known for their durability since they keep liquid on the surface, and they're also flame-resistant to boot. This often makes owners neglect their cleaning duties, turning a blind eye to the deteriorating state of it, despite paying a high price for it. We don't give too much thought to the famed durability of wool rugs – we treat the fabric as if it's frail and antique. Gentle does the trick and guarantees that it will turn out just as soft and comfortable as it was when you first bought it. We'll also help remove those difficult stains from your pristine white or white-gray one, making it inviting for your Boca Raton housemates and visitors once again.
