Oriental Rug Cleaning in Midtown, NYC

Hand-knotted rugs turn up all over Midtown, from wide Persian carpets in Central Park South living rooms to small antique Turkish pieces in Turtle Bay co-ops. Many of their owners travel for work and cannot be home for a long appointment.

That is why we keep the process simple for you. Our crew collects the rug, often through the front desk when the building allows it. Each color is tested before any water touches it. The rug is washed by hand at our facility, dried slowly on a flat surface, and its fringe is groomed. Then it comes home and goes back under your furniture.

High-floor apartments with big windows let in strong afternoon sun. Over time, that light can soften the reds and blues on the side of a rug closest to the glass. Turning the rug a half circle each season spreads the effect.

Central heating in winter dries indoor air, and wool fibers can get brittle when they hold a lot of dust. Regular washing keeps the wool supple and stops grit from cutting it from below.

Moths look for wool rugs in rooms that stay quiet, like a guest room or a pied-a-terre that is empty for weeks. We inspect the back and the edges for signs and treat every rug as part of its cleaning.

If we spot a loose edge, a worn patch or a hole, you hear about it from us with a clear explanation. Repair is your choice, and no extra work starts without your yes.

Large carpets from big Midtown apartments can be very heavy. Mention the size on the phone, so we send enough people to roll and carry it safely through the service entrance.

Everyday machine-made rugs can go to our area rug cleaning in Midtown, and chairs in the same room can be refreshed with upholstery cleaning. Everything we offer is on the Midtown page, and we also take oriental rugs from Murray Hill. Call 1-800-589-4364.
