The most renowned rug tradition in the world. Tabriz, Kashan, Heriz, Gabbeh — each weave density and dye palette gets matched to its own cleaning approach.
Your oriental rugs deserve care from people who understand the unique challenges that come with living in Highwood. The lake-bluff humidity and tight urban spaces here can be tough on fine rugs, especially in those beautiful pre-war bungalows around Downtown Highwood where so many of us have family heirlooms. Our cleaning process respects the craftsmanship of your investment while protecting your home's character. We serve Highwood and the surrounding communities with the same attention to detail your rugs were made with. Call us at (847) 951-9636 to schedule your cleaning today.

High-quality Oriental rugs trap dirt deep inside their fibers, fast. Vacuuming can only address surface-level dirt; the dirt closer to the bottom of the pile continues to damage the fibers and accelerates wear. If you've ever dropped a book on a "clean" rug and watched a cloud of dust come up, you've seen it firsthand.
Our process begins with a comprehensive survey to identify your rug's fiber content and construction, including wool, silk, cotton, or synthetic materials, and whether it's hand-knotted or machine-woven, allowing us to clean it properly. Because rugs are removable, we transport them to our shop for optimal results. That's where our specialized equipment and expertise are housed.
If you've got an older rug in one of those pre-war bungalows near Fort Sheridan, you know how the lake-bluff humidity can really work into the fibers over time. Oriental rugs soak up moisture like nobody's business, and that dampness can lead to mildew or color bleeding if you're not careful. Get yours cleaned every couple of years rather than waiting until it looks worn, and make sure whoever does it understands how humidity affects these pieces. A good cleaning actually helps protect the rug from moisture damage down the road. Call (847) 951-9636 to talk through what your specific rug needs.
Our experience spans virtually every rug tradition across the globe. Each one requires proper technique tailored to its fiber type, weave pattern, and color chemistry. This is why beginning with a thorough survey makes all the difference.
The most renowned rug tradition in the world. Tabriz, Kashan, Heriz, Gabbeh — each weave density and dye palette gets matched to its own cleaning approach.
Symmetric knots, bold medallions, often wool-on-wool construction. Built for longevity — cleans up beautifully with the right pH.
Tribal geometric patterns, coarser weave, deeply saturated natural dyes. Handled with care to preserve color and collectibility.
Distinctive "gul" medallions on deep red grounds, dense weave, often smaller sizes. Gentle washing preserves the patina.
Senneh loop knot construction, often contemporary designs. Highland wool takes color beautifully — gentle chemistry keeps its sheen.
Low-density weave, often with carved pile and silk detailing. Subtle palettes and classical motifs — always dye-tested before cleaning.
Hand-knotted wool with tribal geometric patterns, thick pile, deep reds and blues. Sturdy heirloom pieces that respond well to proper washing.
Hand-tufted and machine-made area rugs in wool, synthetic, or blends. Same fiber-appropriate care, thorough rinsing, and controlled drying as traditional pieces.

A truck-mount wand can pass over a rug in your house, but that's a surface-level pass. Superficial treatment doesn't cut it. Real rug cleaning requires dusting (literally removing embedded soil before any moisture contacts the pile), full submersion or thorough flush, and adequate drying time laid flat to protect the foundation.
Forty-five minutes on-site is not enough time to do the work properly. We remove the rug, transport it to our shop, and perform the thorough restoration it needs.
An Oriental rug is a focal point in your home. Keeping it looking right is a matter of maintaining its appearance and safeguarding its value. A real cleaning brings back the rug's original look while removing allergens from deep within the fibers, eliminating odors where they start, lengthening the rug's lifespan by extracting trapped dirt, and reviving the color and pile from when you first brought it home.
Different fibers need customized chemistry and the right water temperature. Wool isn't cotton, and silk isn't either. We assess the fiber content upfront to determine the correct pH and technique. Our solutions are family- and pet-safe throughout every cleaning application. No harsh residues left in the rug to off-gas in your living room later.
Most carpet cleaners treat rugs as an afterthought. We don't. We maintain a specialized rug-cleaning operation and we apply the same exacting standards whether the rug is a $200 area rug or a $20,000 antique. Family-owned in Lake County since 2016. Consistent team, consistent quality. If you're not happy with the result, Paul personally inspects, we re-clean, and we make it right.

Living in Highwood means your home likely has character and history, especially if you're in one of those charming pre-war bungalows or older apartments downtown. Those beautiful hardwood floors and vintage spaces deserve care, and the same goes for any oriental rugs you've collected over the years. The lake-bluff humidity here can be tough on natural fibers, causing colors to fade and fibers to weaken if moisture isn't managed properly. Our oriental rug cleaning service handles the delicate work these pieces need, using methods that respect their age and craftsmanship without harsh chemicals that damage older materials. Whether your rugs are family heirlooms or treasured finds, we understand how tight urban lots mean limited drying space, so we handle that part for you. We're familiar with the Fort Sheridan area and Downtown Highwood's unique older homes, and we're just a short drive away at our Lake Villa location on Balsam Avenue. Call us at (847) 951-9636 to schedule a cleaning that keeps your rugs looking their best.
