As we mentioned, cleaning is not the only service your rug will need in its lifetime. Proper storage, timely repairs, protection, odor elimination, appraisal, and insect removal are services you should be prepared to utilize.

We offer organic rug washing services. You may have had your rug for many years now, but have you ever washed it? Persian and Oriental rugs, due to their structure and the fibers they are made of, should be cleaned professionally at least every two to three years. If your rug is in a high traffic area, or has suffered unsightly spills or stains, you may consider washing it more often than that.

Area rugs are made of natural fibers such as cotton, silk, and wool. These fibers are quite absorbent. Dirt, dust, allergens, and odors all make their way into your rug over the years. It is important to make sure you regularly maintain the cleanliness of your rug- not just for the sake of your rug, but for your own health, too!

If your rug hasn’t been washed in some time, or if it went through a bit of an accident, take it in for a professional washing. At Behnam Rugs, we use only the traditional Persian method of washing rugs by hand with all-natural organic shampoos and conditioners, as well as live bacteria enzymes to remove tough odors. Although this method takes a bit more time than other rug washing using machine methods, it is a deep cleansing method that will preserve your rug for years to come as well. We know fibers such as silk and viscose are quite delicate, and that’s why we ensure your rugs will not will not endure high-pressure washing and chemical-based cleaners or machines. Our methods are proven and gently enough for silks and antiques.
