Step by step
Our detailed rug cleaning process

Every rug is unique, and proper cleaning requires specialist care. Our Melbourne experts use tailored methods to remove dirt, stains, odours, and allergens while protecting fibres, preserving colour, and extending the life of your rugs.

Step 1: Inspection & assessment
Every rug is carefully inspected to identify fibre type, age, stains, and overall condition. This allows our Melbourne specialists to select the safest and most effective cleaning method, ensuring your rug’s colour, texture, and integrity are preserved.
Step 2: Targeted pre-treatment
High-traffic areas, stubborn stains, and odours receive specialist pre-treatment. Our eco-friendly, fibre-safe solutions loosen dirt and allergens, preparing your rug for a deep, thorough clean while preventing permanent damage.
Step 3: Deep cleaning
Using steam or low-moisture methods, we remove dirt, dust, allergens, and odours trapped deep within your rug’s fibres. This process restores freshness, prolongs the rug’s lifespan, and improves indoor air quality for your home or office.
Step 4: Drying & finishing
High-powered air movers and proper ventilation accelerate drying, preventing mould or mildew. We groom the fibres, conduct a final inspection, and ensure your rug looks its absolute best – ready to enjoy within hours.

Frequently asked questions about rug cleaning

What is included in a professional rug cleaning service?
A professional rug cleaning service includes a comprehensive 7-step cleaning process. We begin by performing a thorough inspection to assess the rug’s material and condition. This is followed by pre-treatment for stains, then deep cleaning using the appropriate method (steam cleaning or dry cleaning). We address specific needs such as fringe repairs, colour restoration, and moth treatments. After the cleaning process, your rug is thoroughly dried using faster drying techniques to prevent mildew, and a final inspection ensures perfection. We also offer protective treatments like stain protection to keep clean carpets looking fresh longer.
How often should I have my rugs professionally cleaned?
The frequency of regular professional cleaning depends on the rug’s usage and environment. We generally recommend having your rug cleaned every 12 months. However, if your rug is in a high-traffic area or is exposed to pets, children, or allergens, cleaning every 6 months may be necessary. Regular cleaning prevents dirt buildup that can damage fibres over time and helps preserve the rug’s beauty and quality. Routine cleanings ensure a healthier indoor environment by removing allergens and bacteria, extending the life of your investment.
Is it better to clean a rug myself or hire a professional?
Whilst diy cleaning might seem cost-effective, it often doesn’t deliver the same deep cleaning results as a professional cleaning service. diy methods can leave behind excess water, which may lead to mildew and even dye bleeding in some rugs. Professional carpet cleaners use advanced equipment and eco friendly solutions designed to remove dirt and stains thoroughly without damaging the fibres or leaving chemical residue. Our cleaning methods are tailored to each rug’s unique needs, ensuring that delicate rugs like silk or Persian rugs are cleaned safely. Opting for professional services ensures your rug receives expert care and the utmost care, prolonging its life.
Do you clean all types of rugs (e.g., synthetic, wool, silk, handmade, antique)?
Yes, we specialise in cleaning all types of rugs, from synthetic and wool rugs to silk, handmade, and antique rugs. Each rug type requires a unique approach, as different materials and weaving techniques need special care. Our experienced professionals are trained to treat every rug based on its material, condition, and age, ensuring that cleaning methods preserve its structure, vibrant colours, and intricate designs. Whether your rug is a fine Persian, a contemporary synthetic piece, or a delicate silk rug, we have the expertise and equipment to clean and restore it properly.
What is the difference between a rug and a carpet?
The primary difference between a rug and a carpet lies in their size and placement. A rug is a small, movable piece of fabric designed to cover part of the home’s flooring, whereas a carpet typically refers to wall to wall floor covering that is permanently installed. Rugs can be cleaned off site using specialised techniques, making it easier to provide thorough treatment, whereas carpets require on-site carpet cleaning methods like steam cleaning. Both require professional care to maintain their quality and appearance.
How much does professional rug cleaning cost in Melbourne?
The cost of rug cleaning in Melbourne typically ranges from $20 to $30, depending on the rug’s size, material, and the type of cleaning required. for instance, small rugs (up to 4 sqm) are priced at $20, whilst large rugs (up to 6 sqm) are $25. these prices include all necessary cleaning materials and equipment. additional services like stain protection or deodorising may incur extra charges. contact us for a free quote tailored to your specific needs.
Do you offer a free quote?
Yes, we offer a free quote with no obligation for all our carpet cleaning services and rug cleaning needs. Once we have information about your rug, such as its size and condition, we can provide an accurate quote for the cleaning services required. We’ll discuss any special requests like stain removal, colour restoration, or protective treatments. We pride ourselves on transparent pricing so you can make an informed decision without worrying about hidden costs. Contact us today, even at short notice, to get started.
Is pickup and delivery available, and is it an extra cost?
Yes, we offer convenient pickup and delivery services across Melbourne, and there is no additional charge for this service. Our delivery services are designed to make your rug cleaning experience as hassle-free as possible. Once your rug is cleaned, we’ll return it to you promptly, ensuring minimal disruption. We offer a 7-day turnaround, and you don’t have to worry about transporting your rug to and from our cleaning facility.
What method do you use for cleaning rugs?
We use a combination of steam cleaning (hot water extraction) and dry cleaning methods, depending on the type of rug. steam cleaning is highly effective for deep cleaning and removing embedded dirt, dust, and allergens. for delicate rugs with intricate designs or sensitive materials, we may use dry cleaning to gently clean without excess water. our goal is to choose the best cleaning method that suits the rug type whilst ensuring the fibres are not damaged and no chemical residue is left behind.
How long does the cleaning process take?
The cleaning process generally takes between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the rug’s size and condition. If additional treatments like stain removal, colour restoration, or dealing with tough stains are required, the process may take longer. After cleaning, we allow the rug to dry properly using faster drying techniques, which typically takes 6 to 8 hours, depending on the cleaning method used.
Will your cleaning process damage my rug?
Our cleaning process is designed to preserve your rug’s condition whilst delivering a thorough, deep clean. we use only gentle cleaning techniques and eco-friendly products specifically tailored to your rug’s material. our team of experienced professionals is trained to handle all types of rugs, from delicate silk to durable synthetics, ensuring no damage occurs during the cleaning process. we perform a pre-treatment test for colourfastness to prevent issues such as dye bleeding, protecting the integrity and vibrant colours of your rug.
Are your cleaning products safe for kids and pets?
Yes, we use eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning products that are safe for children, pets, and the environment. our cleaning solutions are carefully chosen to be both effective and safe, so you can be confident that your home will be free from harmful chemicals and chemical residue once the cleaning is complete. whether you have pets, young children, or someone with sensitivities, our green cleaning methods ensure safety and deliver a fresh, clean result for all.
