At Alec’s Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning LLC, we understand that every area rug—whether it’s a handmade heirloom or a modern machine-made piece—has value. That’s why we handle each rug with meticulous care, tailoring our cleaning process to its unique construction, fibers, and dyes.
Specialized Care for Every Type of Rug
Rugs come in many forms, from Oriental and Aubusson to needlepoint and border rugs. Each requires a different approach:
Fiber types – Wool, silk, cotton, jute, or blends each react differently to cleaning methods.
Construction – Hand-knotted, machine-made, woven, or tufted rugs require specific handling to prevent damage.
Backing materials – Synthetic, cotton, or jute backings must be identified to avoid shrinkage or distortion.
Dye stability – Certain dyes require extra precautions to prevent bleeding or fading.
We also perform blocking on rugs like needlepoints and border rugs to maintain their shape and prevent rippling.
Cleaning Options: In Your Home or In Our Plant
While some rugs can be safely cleaned in your home, many benefit from the specialized treatment available at our state-of-the-art cleaning facility.
At our plant, we use a water softening system that removes minerals, leaving rugs softer to the touch and brighter in color. In this controlled environment, we can address issues that are impossible to resolve during an in-home cleaning.
