Kaoud Oriental Rugs is your best choice when your rugs need cleaning, repair, or reweaving. Unlike so many others we clean and repair each rug by hand even when the rugs were not originally purchased here.
With over three generations of unsurpassed rug care and restoration service behind us, Kaoud Oriental Rugs will treat each rug you bring to us with individualized attention and over 55 years of experience.
STEP 1
We begin by “dusting” your rugs which removes years of every day dirt and debris from deep within the fibers – debris which grinds, creating excessive wear on your rug. Our deep cleaning process works to restore life to the nap and natural luster to your rug.
STEP 2
Our specially formulated enzyme deodorizer works to neutralize household cooking and pet odors from your rug. These often contribute to many common allergies.
STEP 3
Today’s oriental rugs are in use throughout the house. To safeguard your rugs against unforeseen accidents and damage, Scotch guarding is a must and needs be applied professionally to achieve desired results. Professional Scotch guarding is highly recommend for light colored rugs and any in high traffic areas.
STEP 4
We complete our four-step cleaning process with mothproofing. Mothproofing is a must to guard against insect damage and protect your rug investment while in storage or use. Our practical experience has shown no matter how clean the home, no one is immune to the unexpected ravages that moths can cause to unprotected fine wool rugs.
Emergency Spot Cleaning Solution for Pet Stains
If a pet gets sick on a rug, you are faced with neutralizing a mixture of food, saliva, and stomach acid. These foods can actually work to dye and stain the pile a different hue. Since most Oriental rug dyes are acid-fast, the addition of white vinegar to the cleaning solution reinforces the bond between the dyes and the wool fibers in the rug, helping prevent the colors from running.
- 2 cups medium-warm water
- 1/4 cup white vinegar
- 1/2 tsp liquid dishwashing detergent
Use a spoon to scrape up all the solids. Blot the area dry and immediately sponge with the cleaning solution shown above – working from the outer edges of the stain towards the center to avoid creating “rings”. Finally, bring the rug in to your nearest Kaoud Oriental Rug showroom for professional cleaning. Certain stains will permanently alter the colors and condition of any rug, particularly if left unattended. Results may vary but we will attempt to clean the affected area regardless. Most stains will come out but we cannot guarantee every stain will be removed.
