Persian Rug Cleaning
A fine Perisan rug is an expensive investment that many keep for generations as a precious heirloom. However, without proper care and maintenance, its quality and value can quickly disintegrate. While gentle wear and tear can actually increase the value of an antique rug, layers of dirt and grime can cloak the beauty of its colour, texture and design.
Many fine rugs and carpets often last several lifetimes. However, because of their longevity, they do require periodic cleaning. Unfortunately, when performed incorrectly, they may suffer irreparable damage that can significantly reduce their inherent qualities, value and lifespan.
The technicians at GTA Carpet Cleaning have expansive knowledge regarding fine rugs and carpets. We appreciate their value and unique quality, which is why for old or antique rugs and carpets as well as those crafted from fine silk and/or wool, we offer two types of professional washing methods.
Luster Wash
Luster Wash is the ultimate cleaning method for fine Oriental rugs and carpets. True to its name, Luster Wash not only thoroughly removes all traces of dirt and grime, it also restores that extra sheen and brightness that may have disappeared over the years.
This cleaning method requires an inspection of the condition of your rug or carpet, examining wear, discoloration, colour fading and odors. Our technical team will also measure colour fastness to determine whether dry cleaning is required.
Hand wash
The gentle cleaning method of hand washing is ideal for fine rugs. Performed by experienced rug cleaning technicians, your antique rug will be thoroughly cleaned using products that will not compromise its quality.
Fibre preservation is our main objective. GTA Carpet Cleaning takes into consideration such vital factors as the origin, period of craftsmanship, fibre, content and types of dye. Not all precious rugs can be cleaned to the same extent, but we strive to restore each to their original condition as much as possible.
