Professional Rug Cleaning Services in Portland

If you want to beautify your space, add a rug to it! A statement rug will harmonize your space, add a pop of color to it, and increase its overall aesthetic appeal. However, things can quickly and easily go wrong. If your rug is neglected over the years, it will look dirty, dull, and lackluster. While well-maintained rugs enliven interior spaces, neglected rugs reduce interior aesthetic appeal.  

At Alameda Cleaners, we provide professional rug cleaning services across Portland. We understand that rugs can get dirty, messy, and worn out no matter how careful you are. While preventing damage isn’t realistic, tackling the damage is doable. Our rug cleaners immediately get to work!

To begin with, we create an individualized rug cleaning plan for each client. This depends on the fabric, quality, and size of your rug. Our team starts with pre-inspection. Your rug is thoroughly examined for signs of damage and neglect. We follow this up with dry soil removal. Our team uses a variety of techniques to dust rugs from all sides. Next, we pre-condition and pre-spot the rug. This is followed by shampooing, rinsing/washing, speed drying, and finishing. To complete the task, we carefully post-inspect the rug to ensure that all signs of dirt and damage have been addressed and that it looks as close to new as possible.

Our comprehensive rug cleaning approach is more effective than conventional techniques. Homeowners often use invasive stain-removal chemicals to clean their rugs. Instead of getting rid of stains, as promised, these chemicals end up burning and damaging their rugs.

We’ve spent years perfecting our craft. Today, we confidently use state-of-the-art cleaning techniques that gently yet effectively restore the appeal of neglected rugs. Whether it’s been 10 or 20 years since your rug has been collecting stains from muddy shoes and unexpected spills, our team will tackle the job with confidence. Our experience, expertise, cutting-edge cleaning technology, products, training, and skillset help us maintain high customer satisfaction through and through.   

Ready to get started? Whether you’re looking for Persian rug cleaning services, Oriental rug cleaning services, or silk rug cleaning services, Alameda Cleaners should be your first choice. Our conscientious team goes the extra mile to deliver quality results that exceed your expectations. We’re ready to show you what we can achieve with our expertise! If your rug has been putting a damper on your interior aesthetic appeal, give us a call today. Our rug cleaners will leave you with a rug that looks vibrant, clean, and beautiful! Let’s begin!

Our 9 Steps for Rug Cleaning

Step 1: Pre-Inspection

When we receive* your rug, it will be thoroughly inspected.

Step 2: Dry Soil Removal

We use a variety of techniques to “dust” rugs from the front and back.

Step 3: Pre-Condition

Depending on fiber content and soiling type, the rug will be pre-treated to emulsify the soils.

Step 4: Pre-Spot and Fringe Preparation

Any potentially difficult spots will be pre-treated with special solutions to increase the chances of removal. The fringe is also pre-treated for maximum soil removal and cleaned by hand.

Step 5: Shampoo

Most rugs are cleaned with an Oriental Rug Shampoo that is specially designed to get maximum cleaning while protecting sensitive natural fibers.

Step 6: Rinse or Wash

Depending on the type of rug it will be rinsed with extraction equipment on both sides or washed in a wash pit designed especially for Oriental Rugs.

Step 7: Speed Dry

Once the soil is rinsed away, the rug is dried flat or hung to dry in a controlled environment.

Step 8: Finishing

When the rug is dry, it is combed and finished with soft groomers made for specialty rugs.

Step 9: Post Inspection

Our cleaning specialist will give the rug a final inspection and release it for pick up or delivery. Paper and ty-vac wrapping available for short or long-term storage available for an additional charge. If delivered*, we will lay the rug for you.

*Pickup and delivery available at an additional charge

“I recently needed several rug services: rug cleaning, disposal of old rug pads and purchase of new pads. I selected Alameda Carpet and Upholstery because of their competitive pricing and a friend’s recommendation. They far surpassed my expectations.

Their service was first rate in all regards. The cleaning was excellent. They came when they said they would. They even laid out my heavy rugs for me, saving backbreaking effort. A totally positive experience…”

– Karen K.
