AREA RUG CLEANING TIPS & MORE
Regular care and maintenance is essential when it comes to prolonging the look and feel of your new area rug. Following these simple cleaning tips will have your rug looking great and feeling plush for many years to come!
AREA RUG STAIN REMOVAL
No matter how careful you are, your area rug will likely fall victim to the occasional spill or stain, especially if you have kids or pets! Fortunately, many of our area rugs are sold with stain-resistant technology built right into the fibers. Still, it's important to properly address spills as soon as they occur. The sooner you act, the sooner you'll be able to prevent a spill from becoming a stubborn stain! Be sure to check with your manufacturer's care guidelines on dealing with both water- and oil-based stains.
If your rug has stains, we recommend that you have your carpet cleaned professionally throughout the year using the hot water extraction method. An alternative is to shampoo your rug yourself while following your manufacturer's guidelines, if applicable. You should never dry clean your area rugs or use bleach to clean them.
