Area rugs take a beating. Even the expensive ones. They get walked on every day, collect dust, dander, pet hair, foot traffic oils, and spills. And most people never clean them — at least not the right way. They vacuum the top, maybe shake them out now and then, and that’s about it.
We professionally clean area rugs. SteamPro Carpet Cleaning is a professional rug cleaning service. We clean synthetic rugs, wool, Persian, oriental, and decorative rugs — whether they’re sitting under a coffee table or rolled up in a basement waiting for attention.
Rugs trap dirt deep in the fibers — stuff your vacuum can’t reach. They also soak up oils from bare feet, absorb humidity, and get flattened over time. Pet accidents? Those soak straight through to the back. Trying to clean that with a regular carpet cleaner usually makes it worse.
Professional cleaning helps:
A good rug isn’t cheap. It’s worth maintaining.
It depends on the type of rug. Here’s the general process:
We check the type of rug, the backing, dyes, and fiber condition. Not all rugs can be steam cleaned. We’ll be honest about what it needs and what to expect.
We remove as much dry soil as possible first — sometimes using compressed air or beating methods. You’d be shocked how much dirt comes out before we even start washing.
For synthetic rugs or heavily soiled rugs, we’ll use hot water extraction with safe detergents. For wool or natural fiber rugs, we use lower moisture and gentler techniques. No bleach, no high-pH chemicals. We clean it for what it is — not like it’s carpet.
We make sure rugs are dried flat and fast — with air movers and moisture meters. Leaving a rug damp too long can ruin it. We don’t risk it.
If you want, we’ll apply a fiber protector like Scotchgard to help prevent future spills from setting in.
If it’s heavily soiled, smells weird, or hasn’t been cleaned in years, we can probably help. We’ll tell you upfront if it’s not worth cleaning.
