BOCA RATON ANTIQUE RUG CLEANING
Commendable as this is, you won't be able to fully protect your antique rug unless you seal it in an airtight plastic wrap. The nature of fabric means that it will have to get dirty eventually, even with the owner's best efforts. You might be protecting the carpet from any and all dirt, but what about the clouds of dust that frequently engulf the room it's in? And what about mold: you might be cleaning the place day and night, but is it ventilated enough to know no mold will form on the inside of the carpet?
Luckily, you don't have to get a headache thinking about the real state of your antique rug – we'll take care of the diagnosis as part of our cleaning procedure. In fact, we make a point of thoroughly inspecting each carpet we clean before getting to work, as we'd hate the idea of causing any additional damage while trying to do good. Only when we're well-aware of what we have on our hands will we be comfortable enough to start working – before grabbing any cleaning tools, we insist on a clear and thought-out procedure that takes every individual aspect of your antique rug into account. |

Antique Rug Cleaning
We can't stress the word 'individual' enough here: no two carpets are the same, and this stands infinitely more true for antique rugs. Even the term 'antique' can sometimes get confusing, encompassing everything from a century-old rug in good shape to a frail piece from a millennia ago. Consequently, we have no way of giving you predictions before examining the carpet, as we can't know its individual conditions. What we can promise, however, is that your antique rug will receive the very best professional treatment available.
With antique rugs, we like to forgo machines altogether and instead perform every stage of washing by hand, even if our job would be much easier if we let our tools do the work. Knowing how old fabrics will respond to certain treatments can be difficult, which is why we turn exclusively to our hands as this method gives us the most control over the procedure – if the rug isn't handling something we're doing well, we can immediately adapt and move forward with a better technique.

It's also important to note that we pay special attention to the dyes of an antique rug: oftentimes, an antique rug's colors are the product of natural dyes that aren't as resilient as industrial ones, meaning that greater care needs to be exercised in order to preserve its full appearance. The same goes for sun-drying: while it's great for some carpets, others can lose much of their color, and antique rugs generally fall into the latter category.
Lots of antique rug owners have a fear of professional cleaners that isn't entirely unreasonable: many cleaners will advertise their antique rug cleaning services without really knowing how to go about the task. With us, you can rest assured that you're in business with experts who know exactly what they're doing. |
