How to Home-Treat Your Oriental Rug

My professional rug cleaning will extend your rug’s lifespan and improve the look and health of your space. There’s a lot you can do at home to extend the treatment after I finish the job. You can start with the following general tips I’ve learned over the years:

Vacuum Regularly

Oriental or Persian rug cleaning begins with vacuuming. This helps prevent dust from getting lodged between the fibers. My professional recommendation is vacuuming at least once a week.

Use a Carpet Pad

Invest in a quality carpet pad to place under your rug. Doing so helps reduce wear and prevents the rug from sliding around when people walk on it.

Rotate Your Rug

You probably know how important it is to rotate your mattress. It’s also important to rotate your rugs. By doing so, you reduce wear and tear. Rotating your carpets also protects against discoloration and fading.

Spot-Treat Spills

Treat spills immediately after they happen to prevent stains from setting. Never rub the stain. Doing so embeds the food or drink into the fibers rather than removing it. Instead, gently blot the offending material with a sponge or absorbent towel and then call Gordon's Carpet Cleaning to tackle the rest.

Commercial Oriental Rug Cleaning

Oriental rugs liven up the look of a commercial space and protect the floors below. They also filter the air by trapping dust, bacteria, and allergens. While this means your air is purer, it also means your carpet is not. Any filtration system requires routine maintenance. Oriental rugs are no exception.
