Rug Cleaning
Our rug cleaning services use eco-friendly, pet-safe solutions tailored to wool, silk, or synthetic fibers. We employ hand-washing techniques and pH-balanced detergents to remove deep-seated dirt while preserving delicate fibers. Customers benefit from deodorization, stain removal, and final grooming to restore vibrancy and extend rug lifespan.
Rug Repair
We specialize in repairing frayed edges, unraveling threads, and structural damage. Our technicians perform hand-reweaving, fringe replacement, and color correction to match original materials. This service preserves the rugs aesthetic and functional value, ensuring it remains a cherished piece for years.
Rug Restoration
Our restoration services address moth damage, fading, and water stains. Using precision techniques, we revive antique and hand-knotted rugs, respecting their age and origin. This includes moth-proofing and structural reinforcement to maintain historical integrity and craftsmanship.
Rug Sales
We offer a curated selection of antique, semi-antique, and new handwoven rugs. Each piece is inspected for quality, origin, and authenticity. Our inventory includes Persian, Turkish, and Indian styles, with expert guidance to help customers find rugs that complement their space and story.
Rug Padding
Custom-cut padding prevents slipping, extends rug life, and protects flooring. We provide non-slip, rubberized, and cushioned options tailored to hardwood, tile, or carpet. Proper padding improves airflow, reduces wear, and enhances underfoot comfort for all rug types.
