Rug Cleaning in New Orleans โ Area, Wool & Oriental Rugs
Area rugs hold far more grit than wall-to-wall carpet, and many are too delicate for a rental machine. We clean wool, oriental, synthetic and shag rugs with a method chosen for each rug's fiber and dyes, so the dirt, pet accidents and odors come out without bleeding, shrinking or fraying.

Every Rug Gets Checked Before Any Water Touches It
Rugs are where cleaning mistakes are most expensive. A wool rug cleaned too hot can shrink. An oriental rug with unstable dyes can bleed. That's why our team never uses one method for every rug.
We were founded by brothers Michael and Myles to clean every home like our own, and that means slowing down on the pieces that matter to you. We test first, explain what to expect, and stand behind the result.
What Our Rug Cleaning Includes
Here's what happens to every rug we clean:
- Fiber identification. Wool, silk-blend, cotton and synthetic fibers each need a different approach. We identify the fiber before choosing the method.
- Dye test. We test a hidden area to make sure colors won't bleed during cleaning.
- Dry soil removal. Grit trapped at the base of the pile wears fibers like sandpaper. We remove as much dry soil as possible before any cleaning solution goes on.
- Stain and odor treatment. Enzyme treatment for pet urine, and matched spotters for food, drink and mud.
- Clean, rinse and groom. The rug is cleaned, residue rinsed out, and the pile and fringe groomed so it dries even and soft.
Signs Your Rug Needs a Professional Clean
Colors look dull or traffic paths look grey • it smells after humid weather • pet accidents keep reappearing • grit shakes out when you lift a corner • fringe looks yellow or tangled.
If any of these sound familiar, a deep clean will brighten the rug and help it last longer.

Home Rug Cleaning vs. Professional Rug Cleaning
A rental machine is fine for an inexpensive synthetic rug. For wool, oriental or pet-damaged rugs, here's the difference.
| DIY / rental machine | Quality Guaranteed professional cleaning | |
|---|---|---|
| Dye bleeding | No testing, colors can run | Dye test before cleaning |
| Wool shrinkage | Hot water can shrink wool | Method matched to the fiber |
| Grit removal | Surface only | Dry soil removed from the base first |
| Pet urine | Scented spray masks odor | Enzyme treatment for the source |
| Fringe | Often tangled or yellowed | Cleaned and groomed gently |

Area Rug Cleaning FAQs
Can you clean wool and oriental rugs?
Yes. We check the fiber and test the dyes first, then clean with a gentle, color-safe method. Let us know the rug's material and age when you book.
Will my rug colors bleed?
We test the dyes in a hidden area before cleaning. If a rug's dyes aren't stable, we'll tell you before we start rather than risk damage.
Can you remove pet urine from an area rug?
In most cases, yes. We use an enzyme pre-treatment on each urine spot to break down the odor source before cleaning. Older or repeated accidents may need extra treatment, and we'll tell you what to expect upfront.
Will cleaning damage the fringe?
No. Fringe is cleaned gently and groomed straight. We don't bleach or pull it.
How often should area rugs be cleaned?
Every 12 months for most homes, or every 6 months with pets, kids or heavy foot traffic.
Can you clean my rugs and carpets in the same visit?
Yes. Most customers book area rugs together with carpet or upholstery cleaning, so everything is done in one appointment.
