Carpet And Area Rug Cleaning Service

We pride ourselves on our happy customers and affordable prices

Finding a reliable rug cleaning service can feel a bit daunting, with so many companies out there as it is. You want a company that will handle your rugs with care, not just give them a quick clean. This is about preserving heirlooms, investments, and the beauty of your home, so it’s more involved than just standard carpet cleaning.

At MasterMaid, we understand the importance of professional rug cleaning services as a part of home maintenance, impacting more than just a room’s appearance. Read on for more below.

Why Choose Professional Rug Cleaning?

Vacuuming removes surface dirt, but professional rug cleaning goes deeper. It extracts embedded dust, allergens, and even pests. MasterMaid’s cleaning process considers your rug’s unique construction, such as wool or silk.

Professional cleaning equipment protects even delicate rugs like Oriental or Persian rugs. Regular rug cleaning extends their life, preserving your investment and safely cleans natural fibers.

Why Rug Cleaning is Important

If you’re like most people, your rug probably doesn’t get the same attention as your couch cushions or kitchen countertops. But let’s be real—those rugs are working hard, catching all kinds of dirt, dust, and the occasional food spill. So why is it so important to clean your rugs regularly? Well, let’s break it down in a way that makes sense.

1. Health Benefits

Let’s start with health, because we all know the last thing you want is to breathe in dirt and dust every time you walk into a room. Rugs are like giant sponges for allergens, dust, bacteria, and other unwelcome particles, making them a health risk if you are not careful.

All those sneezes you’ve been ignoring? It could be your rug’s fault. Over time, dirt and allergens build up in your rugs, and every time someone walks over them, those particles get kicked up into the air, triggering allergies, respiratory issues, and even skin irritations.

Regular cleaning of your area rugs is recommended for removing all that gunk. When you hire professional rug cleaners, they don’t just vacuum up the surface dust; they deep clean, removing everything from pet dander to bacteria. So, if you’re dealing with constant sniffles or skin irritations, it might be time to clean those rugs and breathe easy again.

2. Aesthetic Benefits

Have you ever looked at your rug and thought, “Wow, it looked a lot better when I first bought it?” Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Rugs can lose their vibrancy over time as dirt, grime, and spills start to settle in. Cleaning your rugs restores their texture, bringing back that fresh, plush feel you remember from when you first laid them out.

Clean rugs make a huge difference in the look of a room. Whether it’s an antique oriental rug or a modern shag, keeping your rug clean helps maintain its appearance and enhances the overall aesthetic of your home or office.

3. Longevity of Rugs

Rugs are an investment, whether they’re an expensive silk rug or a sentimental family heirloom. They’re meant to last for years, but the key to longevity is maintenance. Dirt and grime, if left unchecked, can wear down the fibers of your rug, causing premature wear and tear. The more dirt that gets ground into the fibers, the more they’ll break down over time.

Regular cleaning helps extend the life of your rug by removing dirt before it causes irreversible damage. A good cleaning job prevents fibers from fraying, keeping your rug looking fresh and vibrant for longer. If you want your rug to continue to be the centerpiece of your particular space for years to come, proper cleaning is a must.

Types of Rugs and Their Unique Cleaning Needs

Let’s talk about the different types of rugs and why each one requires a particular cleaning approach. After all, what works for your area rug may not work for your silk rug or your beloved oriental rug.

Synthetic Rugs

Synthetic rugs are durable, easy to clean, and won’t break the bank. Synthetic rugs can handle a lot of foot traffic without getting dirty too quickly, but when they do, they’re pretty low-maintenance.

Vacuuming is usually enough to keep them looking clean, but every once in a while, they’ll need a deeper clean. Rug repair is rare for synthetic materials, but you’ll want to watch for any damage to the rug pads underneath.

Wool Rugs

Wool rugs, on the other hand, are a bit more delicate. They require a gentle touch to keep them looking their best. While they’re naturally stain-resistant, they still attract dust and dirt. Using the wrong cleaning products or being too harsh with your cleaning methods can lead to pilling, fading, or even shrinkage.

Silk Rugs

If you’ve got a silk rug, you know it’s a thing of beauty, but it’s also one of the most fragile types of rug you can own. Silk rugs can get damaged by harsh cleaning methods, so you absolutely need to leave these to the experts. The delicate fibers require special attention and expert cleaning to prevent any damage.

Oriental and Antique Rugs

Oriental rugs and antique rugs are the crown jewels of rug collections. But these beautiful pieces come with their own set of cleaning challenges. They’re often older, delicate, and can be made from a variety of materials. Professional rug cleaners are essential for maintaining these treasures. They understand the importance of preservation and the risks of damaging the intricate designs.

Our Rug Cleaning Process

Many customers are curious about our cleaning methods at MasterMaid. We evaluate each rug to determine whether on-site or off-site cleaning is best. Some rugs, like delicate antiques or those with stubborn stains, benefit from our facility’s controlled environment.

Our team follows an area rug cleaning process with the right tools, regardless of material. We begin with a thorough inspection to assess the rug’s condition and material. This determines the appropriate cleaning solution, cleaning machine, and process.

We also pre-treat stains for more effective cleaning and a spotless finish. This removes dirt from fibers deep inside and offers a higher level of clean than you might see with do-it-yourself cleaning machines.

MasterMaid’s multi-step cleaning process includes these elements:

Initial Assessment: We inspect your rugs and discuss your needs.
Furniture Removal: We clear the area for rug cleaning. Removes dirt and simplifies cleaning the room.
Pre-Treatment: Stains receive extra care to eliminate residues. Soapy residues and dirt are removed for cleaner rugs.
Deep Cleaning: Our trained specialists use hot water extraction (sometimes called steam cleaning). We monitor water temperature to protect rug fibers. For rugs such as a jute or an oriental, hot water extraction will require special attention due to the specific carpet weave, so special trained specialists, with professional area rug cleaning techniques such as ours are critical.
Water Extraction: We remove excess water for fast drying. Water extraction method prevents water damage.
Final Inspection: We review the cleaned rug to ensure your satisfaction.

This process cleans and sanitizes, creating an allergy-friendly space and improving air quality by safely cleaning rug fibers. Trained technicians also look for other issues such as carpet beetles during the final inspection.

Maintaining Your Rugs Between Cleanings

Even with professional rug cleaning service every 6-12 months (or more, depending on use), regular maintenance is essential. Vacuum frequently and spot clean as needed (always test cleaning solutions in a hidden area first). Also treat for moths and carpet beetles and implement preventative measures for any potential pet urine accidents.

These simple steps prevent excess soiling, preserving the life of your rugs. Proper care keeps fringes clean and protects rug fibers, extending the beauty of your floor coverings. This will also remove pet urine from the carpet.

Remember frequent vacuuming alone isn’t enough for proper rug care.

Hope to hear about your post construction cleaning needs and we are sure we can do a pretty good job. Just take a look at our 165 reviews

Master Maid did a fabulous job with my move-out cleaning and charged a very reasonable price. They left my unit sparkling clean, so much so that our landlord had asked for Master Maid’s contact details. They were able to bring all of their own supplies and were very responsive when we had to change access instructions last minute. Would highly recommend their services as I’m definitely going to be using their services again in the future.

Post renovation cleaning was charged hourly. They estimated how long cleaning takes based on the size and only billed us for the amount of time they stayed. Booking process was smooth and expectations were properly set. The office personnel updates you from time to time of progress, any issues, and if more time is needed. Thanks to Mashenka and her team. Superb quality! Bang for the buck! Recommended!

I’ve been using their service regularly for almost a year and I am very happy with them. The cleaning teams always do a very thorough job and go above and beyond my expectations. They are professional, friendly and punctual, and the customer service is excellent! I will be continuing to use their service and I highly recommend their services.
