Persian Carpet Cleaning

The featured carpet was cleaned using the traditional carpet cleaning techniques that has been developed through centuries to safely clean hand woven Persian carpets and Oriental rugs by experts with a wast knowledge of vegetable dyes and the weaving structure of these fine carpets.

At this time cost of simple cleaning of wool carpets runs you only R100 per square meter while silk carpets costs R150 per square meter and for odd shape or heavily soiled or damaged carpets you will receive a free estimate.  please note that at this time unfortunately at this time we are not offering pick up and delivery services and all carpets must be dropped and picked up from our shop at Market Street, George.

The knowledgeable Persian carpet and oriental rug dealers near you are the best source for consultation on how to clean your valuable carpets.  The harsh chemicals found in commercial cleaners and spot removers are not suitable for use on any hand knotted Persian carpets or rugs and even the manufacturers of preventive tools such as Scotch Guard acknowledge on the label of their products that such chemicals are not recommended for use on oriental carpets.

Our cleaning service is available to assist you in cleaning and restoring your hand woven Persian carpets and rugs and the charges are calculated normally based in size of the carpet per square meter.  However, there is no set formula for cleaning and restoring otherwise heavily soiled carpets or color damaged carpets.  For these carpets and all repairs to carpets or fringes the costs will be assessed on per case based on the condition and amount of work required to bring the carpet back to as close to original form as possibly.

To clean a Persian hand woven carpets and rugs we use our automated system that through a custom made machine at our workshop, in George Industrial, will beat the the carpets numerous time till all sands and dirt are released from the tight knots and pile.  then the carpet is vacuumed as many time as necessary to ensure there is no dirt or soil stock any where prior to wash.  These steps are of most importance to avoid crating a MUD inside the tightly packed piles that will obviously defeat the purpose of the cleaning of the carpets all together.  Use of a vacuum  alone is not sufficient in removal of all dirt and soil embedded between the knots.

The process continues with a wash system and use of all natural specialty cleaners that will not make the colors run and damage the carpet.  This step will be repeated as necessary and following that the rinse process with fresh water will complete the wash process.  The next and final step is drying the carpet both in front and back in a timely matter and as quick as possible before mold and mildew takes a refuge inside the pile.
