Rug Cleaning
Our five-step rug cleaning process follows traditional techniques proven over 25 years. We begin with pre-inspection to identify dye stability and structural weaknesses. Dust removal combines submersion baths with mechanical agitation for thorough particulate extraction. Hand shampooing uses eco-friendly solutions that break down organic stains without damaging fibers. Patented wringer technology removes 98% of moisture to prevent mildew growth. Climate-controlled drying rooms complete the process in 24-48 hours, preserving colors and textures.
Rug Repair
Our master weavers specialize in repairing high-value rugs using matching materials and authentic techniques. We restore moth-damaged areas by hand-knotting replacement sections that blend seamlessly with original patterns. Fringe repair maintains structural integrity while preserving decorative elements. We rebuild worn pile areas through selective re-weaving and replace damaged warps and wefts. Each repair considers the rug's age, origin, and construction method to maintain its historical and monetary value.
Stain Removal
Our non-toxic stain removal system targets organic and inorganic contaminants without bleach-based chemicals. We use pH-adjusted enzymatic solutions for protein-based stains from pets or food. Wine and coffee stains are treated with oxidizing agents that break down chromophores without color loss. Mildew remediation employs natural fungicides that eliminate spores while preserving fiber strength. Each treatment includes pre- and post-cleaning analysis to ensure complete removal without residue.
Insurance Appraisals
We provide detailed rug appraisals for insurance documentation and estate planning. Our certified appraisers conduct comprehensive condition assessments noting age, origin, materials, and craftsmanship. We photograph and catalog construction details including weave density, dye sources, and maker's marks. Appraisals include current market values based on auction records and specialist references. We document provenance when available and recommend replacement cost coverage that reflects craftsmanship and rarity.
Moth Damage Repair
Our specialized moth damage treatment involves three phases: eradication, assessment, and repair. We use low-temperature heat chambers to eliminate all life stages of carpet beetles and moths. We document affected areas with digital imaging to plan appropriate repairs. Infested sections undergo microbiological decontamination before replacement with matching fibers. Our weavers replicate original patterns using traditional knotting techniques, ensuring repairs maintain the rug's structural integrity and visual consistency while preserving historical authenticity.
