We regularly assess and clean:

The cleaning method is selected according to the individual rug rather than using the same process for every material or construction.

Rugs We Clean

Persian and Oriental Rugs

Traditional Persian and Oriental rugs often combine intricate hand-knotting with natural fibres and colour-sensitive dyes. Before cleaning, we assess the weave, backing, dye stability, age and any previous treatments. For more delicate pieces, controlled off-site cleaning is often the safer option.

Wool Rugs

Wool rugs are common in family homes and can collect a surprising amount of dry soil deep within the pile. Because wool can react poorly to excess moisture, heat or unsuitable cleaning agents, we select the method according to the fibre, backing, colour stability and overall condition.

Silk Rugs

Silk rugs need a particularly cautious approach. Moisture, friction and incorrect drying can affect the sheen and texture of the fibres, so each silk rug is assessed individually before any treatment is recommended.

Synthetic, Machine-Made, and Modern/Designer Rugs

Many synthetic and machine-made rugs are suitable for on-site cleaning, depending on their backing, construction and dye stability. Contemporary and designer rugs can be more complex, especially where several fibres, finishes or backing materials are combined, so we check the specification before choosing a method.

Handmade and Antique Rugs

Older and handmade rugs may have weakened areas, worn foundations, fragile fringes or previous repairs that are not immediately obvious. We inspect these areas carefully and explain any limitations or risks before cleaning starts.

Viscose Rugs

Viscose is particularly sensitive to moisture and agitation and can develop changes in texture, sheen or pile direction if handled incorrectly. For this reason, viscose rugs are assessed carefully before deciding whether cleaning is suitable and which method should be used.

Our Rug Cleaning Process

1. Photo Assessment and Initial Quote

Send clear photos, dimensions and details of any stains, odours or previous cleaning.

2. Collection or On-Site Inspection

We arrange collection where needed or inspect the rug before on-site cleaning.

3. Fibre, Dye and Construction Assessment

We check the rug’s materials, dyes, backing and condition before treatment.

4. Selected Cleaning and Controlled Drying

The cleaning method is chosen to suit the rug, with controlled drying used where required.

5. Deodorising, Inspection and Packaging

Where suitable, the rug is deodorised, inspected and prepared for return.

On-Site or Off-Site Rug Cleaning?

On-Site Rug Cleaning

On-Site Rug Cleaning

On-site suits stable, moisture-resistant rugs, most synthetic and machine-made rugs, or localised spot treatment on an otherwise clean rug. Drying can take 20–24 hours depending on thickness, soiling level, ventilation and room temperature.

Off-Site Rug Cleaning

Off-Site Rug Cleaning

Off-site is generally recommended for Persian, Oriental, handmade, wool, silk and antique rugs, colour-sensitive rugs, heavy soiling, odour contamination, or rugs needing repair assessment. At our facility the rug is inspected, dusted, treated, rinsed, water-extracted and dried under controlled conditions, independent of London’s weather. The full service usually takes 3–5 days; exact turnaround is confirmed after assessment.

Rug Repair & Restoration Services in London

rug repair in london

Rug repair and restoration options are assessed individually according to the rug’s construction, age, condition and existing damage. We can assess issues such as worn edges, damaged fringes, localised holes, pet damage, colour loss and previous repair failure. The achievable result depends on the rug and the availability of suitable materials.

 

Additional Services and Practical Information

Spot Cleaning

If only one area is affected, tea, coffee, wine, food, full cleaning isn't always necessary. Repeated home treatment risks spreading or setting the stain, pushing it deeper, or leaving detergent residue and colour loss. Domestic machines generally have less extraction power than professional equipment.

If a spill just happened, blot gently with a clean, colourfast towel, don't scrub, apply heat, or mix chemicals, and send us a photo before applying anything else.

Glued or Latex-Backed Rugs

Some rugs have glued or latex backing that reacts badly to excess moisture or slow drying, risking discolouration, adhesive migration, delamination or odour.

Depending on assessment, this may mean rapid off-site extraction or carefully limited on-site cleaning that keeps moisture away from the backing.

Optional Rug Protection

Protective treatment may be available after cleaning. Protection can help reduce the speed at which some liquids and dry soils enter suitable fibres, providing additional time to respond to future spills.

Protection:
➤ Does not make a rug stain-proof
➤ Is not suitable for every fibre
➤ Does not guarantee stain removal
➤ Requires individual suitability assessment
Where suitable, protection is generally priced at approximately: £4 per square metre
Final pricing is confirmed after assessment.

Why Choose Hi Carpet Cleaner in Fulham?

We provide professional rug cleaning in Fulham with a practical, assessment-led approach. Whether the rug is used in a busy family home, a rental property or a larger residential space, we recommend the cleaning method according to its fibres, construction, condition and how it is used.

Fully Insured Rug Cleaning

Our service is supported by public liability insurance cover of up to £10 million. Before treatment begins, we assess the rug and explain any visible risks, limitations or areas that may need additional care.

Flexible On-Site and Off-Site Options

Many synthetic and machine-made rugs can be cleaned at the property when their construction and backing allow it. More delicate wool, silk, handmade, antique or colour-sensitive rugs are usually better suited to specialist off-site cleaning.

Care for Valuable and Delicate Rugs

Persian, Oriental, handmade and older rugs are checked for dye stability, weakened areas, backing condition, fringe wear and previous repairs before a cleaning method is selected.

Controlled Drying When Needed

For rugs cleaned off-site, the process may include dust removal, controlled washing, water extraction and managed drying. This is particularly useful for rugs that should not remain damp for extended periods.

48-Hour Aftercare Support

If you notice a concern after your rug is returned, contact us within 48 hours. Where appropriate and reasonably possible, we can arrange a complimentary follow-up assessment or localised treatment within seven days, subject to the rug’s condition and our service terms.

DBS-Checked, Respectful Team

Our DBS-checked team works carefully in family homes, apartments, rental properties and other residential environments. Collection times, access arrangements and any specific household requirements can be discussed when booking.
