Area rugs are a beautiful addition to any room, typically bringing all of the different contents in the room together for that beautiful finish. Just like with any element of our home, we want it to stay the way it looks as soon as we got it, right? So, when was the last time your area rug received the deep cleaning it needs? Just like with any carpeting or other flooring, area rugs need their regular attention, too. On today’s blog, we’re going over all you need to know about the deep cleaning of your beautiful area rug.


Area Rug Inspection


No matter what kind of area rugs exist inside your home, The Steam Team knows how to take care of them. Our trained professionals are familiar with the fibers and dyes that go into your beautiful textiles. We’ll start there. By inspecting your rugs and figuring out exactly what they need, we’ll be able to proceed with the cleaning process. 


The Cleaning Process


To start, we’ll use a pile lifter and vacuum to remove as much dirt and debris as possible. Do you know just how dangerous dirt particles are for your area rugs, and carpeting, for that matter? Dust and soil can actually cut the individual carpet fibers, reducing the lifespan of your beautiful area rug! But don’t worry; The Steam Team will get it all cleaned up right away! 


Rinse and Dry


Finally, we’ll rinse and dry your rug. We’ll thoroughly rinse away all contaminants and cleaning solutions. And The Steam Team would never leave your home without ensuring that your carpeting is perfectly dry. With steam cleaning, so little moisture is used, anyway! After your rug is rinsed clean and dried, we’ll be well on our way. 


The Steam Team knows the value of your area rugs, and will do all that we can to protect them. So if your area rug is due for a deep rug and carpet cleaning, don’t hesitate to give us a call today!
