<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nRug Laundry Cleaning Method<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Some people get their rugs cleaned at the local laundromat because they think that it is easier and cheaper when in fact; the opposite is true. A standard washing machine is smaller than what is needed to thoroughly clean a rug and it can cause wear and tear. As well, rugs require special detergents that can be hard to find and expensive. If your rug doesn’t explicitly say that it is machine washable, you should avoid laundering it yourself at all costs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s a lot easier and cheaper to take out the guesswork and hire rug cleaning professionals<\/a> to handle everything for you! The team at Love Your Rug<\/a> knows exactly the right cleaning processes for every kind of rug. We’ll closely inspect your rug for stains and smells and then create a customized cleaning process that will have your rug looking, feeling and smelling as good as new!

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nRug Steam Cleaning Method<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The best at-home cleaning solution is a steam cleaner. It uses water vapour to clean so it doesn\u2019t get the rug too wet or use chemicals that could leave stains. However, even the most high-powered, expensive steam cleaners are incapable of getting tough stains out your rug. It also requires quite a bit of manual labour. You must dry your rug for 12 hours with no one stepping on it. Properly drying your rug is just as important as properly cleaning it because any moisture left behind can cause mould or mildew. This is why Love Your Rug<\/a> has a state-of-the-art temperature-controlled drying room for all of the rugs we service. Steam cleaners are also quite expensive and cumbersome so you’ll need somewhere to store the device which is not ideal in smaller homes and apartments.

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nRug Vacuum Cleaning Method<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Vacuum cleaning is, of course, the most tried-and-true method for cleaning rugs. However, standard vacuums cleaners really just get rid of superficial dust and crumbs that have fallen on your rug. A thorough cleaning must also be done to get rid of any dirt or grime that has been embedded inside the rug for an extended period of time. Remember, vacuum cleaning and store-bought carpet shampoo don\u2019t always get all the grease, oil and dirt out of the very deep sections of the carpet. Using a liquid carpet shampoo should be avoided at all costs because it tends to blotch and leave stains after the cleaning which are really hard to get out. A dry carpet shampoo, on the other hand, is better because it doesn\u2019t cause blotching but it can still be difficult to use properly at home. At Love Your Rug we use eco-friendly rug cleaning<\/a> products and custom-blended solutions to get your rug looking and smelling like new. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.dev.wisevu.com\/lyr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/vacuuming-rug.jpg\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nCan your area rug be cleaned professionally in your home?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Unlike wall-to-wall carpets, area rugs cannot be professionally cleaned in-home. The reason why area rugs can not be cleaned properly in your home is because they cannot be dusted properly, pre-soaking is impossible, stain removal can\u2019t be done properly, and cleaning the top and bottom of your area rug requires two different cleaning processes, which cannot be performed inside the home with a truck mount or paintable unit.
Furthermore, your floor under the area rug may get damaged if the rug is not hung to dry.
Inadequate drying of your area rug can also cause mold and mildew as well as permanent damage to your rug, in effect shortening its life span.
On the other hand, wall-to-wall carpet is made for in-home steam cleaning. Piles are made for on-site washing by portable and truck mount units. At Love Your Rug we offer both; area rug cleaning in our state-of-the-art rug cleaning facility, as well as in-home carpet cleaning anywhere in the GTA and Southern Ontario.
