ORIENTAL & AREA RUG CLEANING EVANSTON
Cleaning a rug is not the same as taking care of wall-to-wall carpeting. It requires a different technique, different materials, and a lot more care and precision. If somebody doesn’t know what they’re doing when it comes to rug cleaning in Evanston, they can cause tremendous and possibly irreversible damage to the rug itself. This is one of the primary reasons more discerning residents and business owners are choosing Oriental Rug Pros in Wilmette for their cleaning needs in Evanston.

ORIENTAL RUG CLEANING IN EVANSTONProper care for a rug starts long before professional cleaning in Evanston is required. The more attention you place on the general cleanliness and maintenance of your area rugs, the more you help to protect them as the years march on. There are generally numerous factors that can impact the quality, cleanliness, and integrity of an Oriental rug, including where it is located, how often it may be rotated, and even the number and age of the people who live in the house. By taking on a few simple steps, you can better care for it before and after you rely on professional cleaning services.
First, avoid direct sunlight. The sun’s ultraviolet radiation will fade any surface it hits repeatedly over time. It may not be possible to keep a gorgeous one out of direct sunlight for the entirety of each day, but where (and when) possible use curtains, blinds, or rotation techniques to help limit direct sunlight. Second, rotate them. Whether they see a lot of direct foot traffic or not, it’s a good habit to get into to rotate the rug every few months. This gives it a chance to recuperate, especially if there are furniture items resting on top of it. Third, limit your cleaning efforts. Even a beater bar on a vacuum has the potential to cause significant damage to expensive, delicate ones. While vacuuming may be essential, avoid the temptation to scrub out stains or other potential damage that may have occurred to that rug; instead, call on Oriental Rug Pros in Wilmette to come and assess the situation and detail the proper cleaning procedure they can perform. |

AREA RUG REPAIR
The finest rugs in the world take months and even years to create. From start to finish they are formidable works of art. While they are designed to be functional, some people hang them as wall art while others utilize them in less trafficked areas like formal living or dining rooms. Even if it doesn’t see a lot of foot traffic or is not exposed to direct staining or other damage, professional Oriental rug cleaning in Evanston is still a vital aspect of keeping it looking it’s best and possibly even restoring some of the appearance to an almost new like condition.
A rug may be passed down from generation to generation, exposing it to greater risk of harm and complicating the cleaning process. It might be an heirloom in the family or something brand new that you want to protect as much and for as long as possible. In order to do this, it’s important to understand the inherent and true value professional cleaning in Evanston offers. Because of the value of it, only entrust it to professionals who have been doing this type of work for the duration of their career. Make sure they have documentation dating back 10, 20, or even more years and you can be assured the job will be done right and safely every time.

EXPERT AREA RUG CLEANING IN EVANSTON
How often you get a cleaning professional depends on a number of factors, not the least of which involves the type of rug, materials used, it’s location in the house or business, and just how much foot traffic it sees on a regular basis. We have been in this industry for decades and often recommend that homeowners and businesses clean them at least as often as they have other regular carpeting professionally cleaned. The most common recommendation is a minimum of one time per year, with twice being optimal. For places with higher foot traffic, it would be recommended to have them cleaned more frequently than that.
Do keep in mind, though, it is important to avoid placing an expensive and important one in an area considered “high traffic.” Preventive measures to protect the quality and integrity of it is a cornerstone to longevity. It may not always be easy to spot a dirty looking rug, but if it appears faded, looks as though it is getting worn out in spots, or it’s been at least a year since they were last cleaned, it’s time to get a cleaning professional for a consultation. Two simple tests you can do include: picking up a corner of it and kicking it lightly but swiftly and see if you spot dust and other dirt particles coming out. If you do, it’s time to clean it. And the second method is to run your hand across a part of it quickly. Do this back and forth for a few seconds and if you feel dirt or grime or see your dirt on your hands, you need to get a professional out there now.
