Persian, oriental and vintage rugs from Williamsburg homes, dye-tested and hand-washed at our plant, with no-cost pickup and return.
Vintage is part of life in Williamsburg. Plenty of apartments have a hand-knotted Persian, Turkish or Caucasian rug found at a market, at an estate sale or in a relative's house, lying on old loft boards or new oak.
A rug like that should never get a rough machine scrub on the living room floor. It comes back to our plant and is washed by hand.
We check the dyes before anything else. Older rugs can have colors that bleed, and some rugs sold as vintage have been bleached or overdyed, which changes how they react to water.
Our crew rolls the rug pile-in, wraps it and brings it down by the service elevator or the stairs. Folding cracks the foundation of a hand-knotted rug, so we never do it.
First comes a careful dusting. Hand-knotted wool holds a lot of fine sand at the base of the knots, and every footstep grinds it into the fibers.
The hand wash uses mild, eco-safe products. After a thorough rinse, the rug dries slowly, flat and out of the sun, and the tassels are combed out.
Wool rugs pushed under a bed or a sofa are where moths settle in apartments. If larvae or bare patches turn up, we treat the rug and point out the damage to you.
Overdyed and patchwork rugs, very popular in this neighborhood, need extra care so the color does not shift. We explain the risks before we begin.
Loose fringe and fraying ends are often fixable during the same stay at our plant. You see the problem and the price before any repair begins.
Loft floors made of old wood can have splinters and gaps that snag the back of a rug. A good rug pad under the rug protects both the floor and the rug, and we are happy to suggest one when we bring the rug home.
Sun from big factory windows fades wool over time. Turning the rug every few months spreads the fading evenly, so one side does not end up lighter than the other.
A machine-made or synthetic rug is better suited to the faster wash on Williamsburg area rug cleaning.
