Atlanta Georgia's Area Rug Cleaning &
Oriental Rug Cleaning Experts!
Our Rug Cleaning Process
You care about your home and want to keep it clean, sanitary, and smelling fresh. All textiles need regular cleaning and care to extend their life, especially your rugs. Area rugs trap dust, dirt, odors, and oils due to foot traffic, pet accidents, smoke, and various spills.
We are the only cleaning professional in the state of Georgia to hold both the Master Rug Cleaner and Master Textile Cleaner certifications, demonstrating dedication to our craft.
We clean all types of fibers including: your most common natural fibers (wool, cotton, silk, sisal, jute, and more...), synthetic fibers (nylon, polypropylene, olefin, polyester, and more...) and also hybrid fibers (viscose, rayon, bamboo silk, art silk, and more...)
We provide complimentary rug pickup and delivery*.
Pickup and delivery is quick and easy and as always, you get a discount for dropping rugs off at our facility that is located 3/4 mile just west of the Big Chicken in Marietta GA.

STEP #1 Inspection

STEP #2 Dust Removal
We attempt to remove as much dry soil from your rug prior to washing it. We have several tools we can use to accomplish this including:
1) Flat Bed Duster
2) Rug Tumble Duster
3) Air Duster
4) Strap Dusting - We use the "Rug Badger"
5) Commercial HEPA Vacuum
Depending on the construction of your rug and the level of soil, we use the right combination of tools to accomplish dry soil removal. Our dry soil removal process is gentle yet a highly effective way to remove literally pounds of dust, dirt and small particles from the rug.
This dust contains dirt as well as silica which has sharp edges. As these sharp edges are compressed against the rug fibers with foot traffic during normal use, the fibers are cut and damaged, reducing the useful life of your rug. Thorough dust and abrasive particulate soil removal is one of the key reasons your rugs need to be professionally cleaned every one to two years, depending on their location and the amount of soiling they receive.
 This is our Automatic Rug Duster-efficient dust and dirt remover. |  We can use high pressure air on rugs to remove fine soil. |  This amazing equipment gently tumbles your rug back and forth to remove soil. |

 The Rug Badger is used on certain rugs where soil is heavily impacted. |  One rug can hold more than a pound of dirt and soil. |
STEP #3 Submersion Hand Rug Washing
Rug cleaning requires making sure your rug is colorfast (many rugs can be ruined due to “dye bleed”) prior to washing. We test your rug then determine the best plan of action based on the color stability of the dyes. We select gentle cleaning agents based on your rug's condition and we use a clear-water rinse to wash out all removable stains, dirt, and odors. We perform this rug cleaning process by hand, and we repeat it until the rug water washes clear and we are satisfied with the results. We use special technology including our centrifuge to rinse your rug and remove water from your rug prior to the drying process.
 We believe our process gets your rug cleaner than any other washing method. For odor issues we perform our flush treatment. |  For odor issues we perform our flush treatment prior to washing your rug. |  Some rug cleaning facilities use an automated processes to provide low cost "good-enough" cleaning. We wash every rug by hand! |
|---|---|---|
 We wash every rug individually for best results. We do not combine your rug with other filthy dirty rugs - yuk! |
We submersion hand wash each rug individually! For heavily soiled rugs and rugs that have odors (pet odors, mildew, etc) we perform our special flush treatment prior to washing to reduce/eliminate odor and extra soiling/staining issues caused by dog/cat urine, feces, vomit, or other contaminants.
In the rug cleaning business, it is well known that a hand washed rug using state of the art equipment and cleaning agents is the best way to wash a rug. High production rug cleaning facilities many times use a one-size-fits-all rug cleaning machine (conveyor belt - like a pizza oven). Their "cheap, good enough" approach does not necessarily serve the customer who desires the cleanest rug possible. It's kinda like getting your car hand washed by a detail company or going through a car wash. Moreover, rugs that are not thoroughly cleaned and thoroughly rinsed get dirtier more quickly and require more frequent cleanings.
STEP #4 SPECIALIZED RUG RINSING AND WATER REMOVAL
The RugRevolution "ProSS-1300" is the most advanced rug centrifuge wringer ever developed for extracting water out of area rugs. After a thorough submersion washing, your rug is placed into our centrifuge. As your rug spins, fresh water is introduced to achieve a complete and thorough rinse. This rinse continues until the water is clear and your rug is fresh and clean. Rugs that are not rinsed thoroughly get dirtier faster. The extraction process removes over 98% of the water which helps reduce dry times significantly, making your rugs clean, soft and fresh again.
 A centrifuge is what separates real rug cleaners from others! |  Ask how your rug is being rinsed - we introduce water to rinse your rug while it is spinning! |

STEP #5 Specialized Speed Drying Enclosure
The drying process includes grooming the rug for the best results to deliver a luxuriously soft rug to you. Our rug cleaning facility is equipped with a custom, specialized drying room which allows your rug to dry overnight. We heat and cool the entire warehouse which controls the humidity. Maintaining low humidity is essential for fast dry times which prevents mold/mildew growth which can cause odors if rugs are not dried quickly. Once the rug is dry, we perform any fringe detailing needed, trim any loose fibers, and do one final inspection to make sure the rug cleaning results satisfy our high quality standards.

STEP #6 Spotting, Fringe Detail, & Quality Control
Once the rug is dry we perform fringe detailing if needed along with our multi-step quality control inspection. We look for any additional spots or stains that may still exist (if so we perform additional spotting), trim any loose fibers, and then do one final inspection to make sure the rug cleaning results satisfy our high quality standards.
 Fringe detailing is part of the post drying process to finish the look of the rug. |  Post wash spotting can remove stubborn stains. Here we use our powerful UV light to remove stains. Part of our attention to details that separates us from other rug cleaners. |

We can deliver and install a custom-sized, non-skid rug pad to prolong the life and beauty of your fine area rug.
