Area Rug Cleaning in Del Mar That Actually Gets Deep Down Clean

Area rugs are the ultimate in putting up with things. Whether it’s shoes, paws, belongings, or just about anything else that you or your pets may toss on the rug, the rug puts up with it all without showing the least bit of frustration. However, even if your rug looks great on the surface, it is likely that there is a good amount of dirt, dust, and allergens that have settled deep down beneath the fibers. This continual settling of particulates over time will dull the rugs color and wear at the fibers even if the rug currently looks okay to you on the surface.


At Elegant Rug Services, area rug cleaning in Del Mar is one of the things we do best for homeowners. We go beyond the vacuum to actually get to the base of the rug to clean out any of the debris that cannot be reached by the vacuum alone, but which are essential to the rugs’ fibers and color to keep them looking great for longer periods of time.

Vacuuming certainly helps, but many times, the rugs begin to wear with time due to the sandpaper effect of the fibers slowly being worn away by the individuals who use the rug regularly. Most people do not even realize that their rug is slowly getting worn down until it starts to show.

Then, of course, there are the spills and accidents. A little wine here, a pet accident there, and mud from outside the door here and there. These types of incidents contribute to rugs eventually needing to have area rug cleaning in Del Mar in order to preserve them.

Living near the coast adds one more thing to consider regarding rugs. Del Mar rugs are able to stand up to the salty air of the ocean, the sand that is ever present near the coast, and the higher humidity that exists near the coast as opposed to the interior of the state. These factors contribute to rugs needing to be cleaned more often than rugs that remain in areas that are not near the coast.

Problems We Handle All the Time

We clean rugs that have pet odors and stains, wine and food spills, wear and buildup from the feet, dust and allergens, color fading from sunlight exposure, and musty rugs that were previously cleaned improperly.

If any of this sounds familiar to you, chances are we’ve already fixed the same exact problem for someone else in Del Mar.

How We Clean Your Area Rug

Every rug that comes to us goes through the same area rug cleaning in Del Mar process, from start to finish.

First, we closely inspect the rug to determine what it is made of (wool, cotton, synthetic materials, blends, etc.), as well as to inspect for stains or damage. This will help us to determine the steps that will be taken to clean the rug.

Next, we use specialized equipment to remove all of the dry dirt that tends to collect in the fibers of the rug. It’s surprising how much dust and debris can be sucked out of a rug during this step, as it has been slowly grinding against the fibers of the rug over time due to every step that have been taken upon it.

After treating the stains individually according to their cause (whether pet stains, food stains or general grime), the rug will be deep washed. Depending on the type of rug, this will flush the dirt and residue deep into the rug. This is where the rug will be transformed.

After deep washing, rugs will be rinsed to ensure that there is no residue left behind. Residue will actually attract dirt to the rug after washing. Finally, rugs will be groomed to their natural fibre direction.

Our drying area rug cleaning in Del Mar process happens in a controlled space with proper airflow to keep your rug from mildew and odor problems caused by slow drying – a common problem after rug cleanings done at home.

Lastly, we check everything one more time before the rug is delivered to you to ensure all stains are truly gone and that everything meets our rigorous area rug cleaning in Del Mar standards.

What Makes Our Process Different?

Many carpet and area rug cleaning in Del Mar companies treat area rugs the same as wall to wall carpet in terms of the equipment and chemicals they use on both rug and carpet. This can actually lead to damage to the rugs, especially those with natural fibers.

We do things differently. Because we clean rugs in our own facility, rather than in your living room, we are able to provide the time that your rug needs. There is no rush to finish rugs and move to the next customer. Each rug is cleaned according to the needs of that rug.

We also try to avoid harsh chemicals in our rugs. Our area rug cleaning in Del Mar solutions are effective at cleaning the rugs, but are still gentle on the rug fibers and safe around the kids and pets in the homes.

We Adjust Based on What Your Rug Actually Needs

Not all rugs are treated the same. Wool rugs require a slightly different area rug cleaning in Del Mar process than synthetic rugs. Synthetic rugs can usually take a wash but need to be dried properly so their backing does not separate from the rug.

Lastly, rugs that contain cotton and jute fibers need to be washed with care to ensure they do not shrink or bleed colors.

Instead of utilizing one method for everything in the rug cleaning process, we adjust the techniques according to each rug that we encounter. This is one of the major reasons why our results hold up over time.
