Can I have my rugs cleaned in my home?
In home cleaning of your rug, whether by a hired machine ora carpet cleaning company is unrecommended. To clean a rug the professional and correct way involves using a big machine to get out all the dry soil (We use our trusty RugBadger to beat out all the dry soil and debris). Then this process is followed by a rug bath. the rug bath is where we lay the rugs out and can get them fully wet and soaked, enabling us to give the rug a full deep clean. Our rinsing system is used to fully rinse a rug of all clean solutions used and dirt in a rug. For this we use different squeegees to flush out all the dirty water, followed by our extraction system plus extraction machine to get as much moisture out of the rug as possible. The rug then has to be dried, and to dry a rug quickly to avoid damage this has to be down in a drying room using airmovers and dehumidifiers. There is a very high risk that your rugs dyes will bleed, if they were to bleed in your home, the cleaner will ruin your rug and and the flooring underneath, whether that is wood or carpet.
