CLEANSING
Rugs are as individual as people.
Some rugs may require additional steps while others may require fewer or a totally different approach than the “regular” treatment.
For instance, antique or silk rugs are hand washed gently or just spot cleaned as needed due to their unique characteristics.
Our staff has the knowledge to properly clean any rug that we may encounter.
Our cleansing process consists of six steps.
First, we put the rug through the dusting machine which removes all the heavy sand and grit that regular vacuuming does not remove.
Next we vacuum the rug on both sides and take it to the wash pit.
In the wash pit we scrub the rug front and back and rinse thoroughly to remove all the cleansing agent.
Then the rug is put through the ringer to remove approximately 80% of the water and taken to the dry room.
In North Atlanta’s only heated dry room, your rug is completely dried in 12 to 18 hours.
The drying process is key to prevent bacteria and mold growth which decomposes the foundation of the rug.
