Riverwoods Oriental Rug Cleaning

More Than a Quick
In-and-Out Service.

High-quality Oriental rugs collect dirt deep inside their fibers quickly. Vacuuming only skims the top; the dirt closer to the bottom of the pile gradually damages the fibers and shortens the rug's lifespan. If you've ever dropped a book on a "clean" rug and watched a cloud of dust come up, you've seen it firsthand.

We start by conducting a detailed survey of your rug's fiber content and construction, determining whether it's wool, silk, cotton, or synthetic and if it's hand-knotted or machine-woven, so we can tailor our cleaning method accordingly. Because rugs are removable, we bring them to our facility for optimal results. That's where our specialized equipment and trained team deliver the best care.

A Tip For Riverwoods Homes

If you've got quality rugs in one of those architect-designed homes along Deerfield Road, pet hair and forest dust are facts of life. Regular vacuuming helps, but deep cleaning every couple years actually extends rug life and keeps those natural fibers from breaking down. Pet households especially benefit from professional cleaning that reaches the foundation of the pile where allergens hide. It's not just about looks, though your rugs will definitely look better. It's about protecting the investment in your home.

Rug Types We Clean

Every Origin, Every Design.
From Persian to Tibetan.

Our experience spans nearly all the traditional rugs across the globe. Each one requires the correct approach for its fiber type, weave pattern, and color chemistry. That's where our survey-first method is essential.

Iran

Persian

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.

Anatolia

Turkish

Symmetric knots, bold medallions, often wool-on-wool construction. Built for longevity — cleans up beautifully with the right pH.

Caucasus

Caucasian

Tribal geometric patterns, coarser weave, deeply saturated natural dyes. Handled with care to preserve color and collectibility.

Central Asia

Turkmen

Distinctive "gul" medallions on deep red grounds, dense weave, often smaller sizes. Gentle washing preserves the patina.

Tibet

Tibetan

Senneh loop knot construction, often contemporary designs. Highland wool takes color beautifully — gentle chemistry keeps its sheen.

China

Chinese

Low-density weave, often with carved pile and silk detailing. Subtle palettes and classical motifs — always dye-tested before cleaning.

Afghanistan

Afghan & Baluch

Hand-knotted wool with tribal geometric patterns, thick pile, deep reds and blues. Sturdy heirloom pieces that respond well to proper washing.

Contemporary

Modern & Machine-Made

Hand-tufted and machine-made area rugs in wool, synthetic, or blends. Same fiber-appropriate care, thorough rinsing, and controlled drying as traditional pieces.

The Details

Why In-Shop,
And Why It Matters.

Tap to expand each section, or read it all the way through — every customer asks at least one of these questions.

A truck-mount wand can pass over a rug in your house, but that's a surface-level pass. Surface-only cleaning doesn't cut it. Real rug cleaning requires dusting (literally removing embedded soil before any moisture contacts the pile), complete soaking and thorough rinsing, and adequate drying time laid flat to protect the foundation.

A thorough job cannot happen in 45 minutes while the rug is in your home. We pick the rug up, take it to our shop, and do it the way it should be done.

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 restores the rug to its original beauty, pulls allergens out of the foundation, neutralizes odors at the source, extends the rug's life by removing abrasive embedded dirt, and brings back the color and pile you remember when it was new.

  • Pulls allergens out. Dust and dander don't just sit on the surface — they live in the foundation. Cleaning the way we do removes them.
  • Neutralizes odors at the source. Pet urine, smoke, food. We get to the molecular level instead of masking on top.
  • Extends the rug's life. Embedded dirt is abrasive — every footstep grinds it deeper into the fibers. Removing it means less wear, more years.
  • Restores color and pile. The rug you remember when it was new — that's what's actually under there once everything else comes out.

Different fibers need customized chemistry and the right water temperature. Wool isn't cotton, and silk isn't either. We ID the fiber first, then choose the right pH and method. Our solutions are safe for your family and pets across the board. No harsh residues left in the rug to off-gas in your living room later.

Most carpet cleaners treat rug cleaning as secondary. 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. Same crew, same care. Should you be dissatisfied, Paul conducts a personal inspection, we re-clean at no extra charge, and we guarantee your satisfaction.

I was so happy to discover Supreme Cleaning a few years back. I used to have a guy that I used but he was busy so I called Supreme and have never gone back. I’ve used them at my home in the city as well as my place up North and also at a rental property we have. They are always…

Amazing! Friendly, fast & effective! I had some major staining, too. Great job.

Amazing job! There were previous owners of our home who had 3 dogs who urinated heavily in the house. We shampooed it ourselves twice with no luck. We were making it worse. Within 1 hour the urine smell and stickiness was gone. There were noticeable strips as they were cleaning…
