Pristine Cleans Nine Step Rug Cleaning Process.

1 Pre-Inspection

All rugs are examined for urine, contamination, wear, tear, or damage.

2 Dusting

We use a special rug dusting machine designed to vibrate and remove all the dust contaminants that are trapped deep within the rug fibers, after this procedure, the rug is thoroughly vacuumed.

3 Dye stability testing

We test every rug that comes into our shop for dye stability, this ensures that no rugs are damaged due to die migration during the cleaning process, if a rug is found that does not have stable dyes, we apply a dye stabilizer before the washing process.

4 Urine removal (If needed)

If urine is detected in the rug, the rug will be submerged in a wash bath that breaks down and lowers the pH of the urine crystals that are attached to the rug fibers. after the rug has soaked in the wash bath It’ll then be moved to a secondary Enzyme bath for 24 hours to ensure that all urine particles have been completely eradicated.

5 Washing

After all the previous steps have been completed it is time for washing! An appropriate rug cleaning solution for your rug will be applied to the rug and agitated into the fibers, then your rug will be rinsed and extracted to remove all soils and particles in the rug, this process will be completed until the rug is completely clean, and only clear water runs out of it.

6 Rinsing

After the rug has been washed, the rug must be rinsed properly. We use a special rug rinse product that is designed to neutralize and level the pH of the rug to ensure that there are no residues of the cleaning solutions left in the rug, this process will also brighten the appearance of the rug and caused the fibers to become softer and more plush.

7 Drying

The rug is then dried using our high-powered rug drying machine, which removes up to 90% of the rug's humidity, after that The rug is hung to finish drying.

8 Grooming

The rug is groomed to be sure that none of the fibers are crushed or flattened. This ensures that the rug dries with all the fibers pointed in the same direction so as not to cause fiber disorientation. Part of the grooming process includes combing the fringe.

9 Post inspection

The last step is to inspect your rug. Our rug specialist will examine the rug to ensure that it meets our facility's cleaning standards, and then the rug will be rolled and prepped for delivery.

Oriental Rug Cleaning Tips

Never clean rugs on location in the customer's home unless there are extenuating circumstances such as size, weight or furniture that makes bringing the rug in for cleaning in a plant difficult. In-home cleaning is much cheaper but leaves soap and dirt residue in the rug that causes the rug to re- soil quickly. On location, the fringe cannot be cleaned and the rug may mildew on the floor because of inadequate drying. Always have your area rugs taken out of the home and cleaned by a professional company that specializes in Oriental rug cleaning. If the company does not know what type of rug you have or the fiber content, they probably know very little about cleaning area rugs.

Oriental Rug Care

The information here offers easy, basic steps for the care and protection of an Oriental rug.

Rotation - To insure even wear, your rug should be rotated once a year. Depending on the traffic, the rotation may vary from six months to two years.

Vacuuming - Oriental rugs, like most carpeting, should be vacuumed on a regular basis to remove dirt and restore life to the fibers. Be sure not to vacuum the fringe with your beater bar! Use the end of a vacuum hose from a canister vacuum. Padding - a quality pad used under your rug helps protect it from dirt, wear and slippage.

Spot and Spill Procedures - Make sure that you safely and immediately clean up.
