RUG CLEANING CALABASAS

Drop-offs are more than welcome, no appointment necessary!
One of the best ways to confirm the legitimacy of a rug cleaning business is by visiting their facility and seeing their cleaning plant for yourself.

We offer pickup and delivery services for our rug cleaning calabasas services, with all orders that exceed our minimum of $350.
For example, if your rug costs $240 to clean, and you have no other rugs for cleaning, you either have $110 as credit to spend on other services including rug stain-block protection, rug pads, or repairs, or you'll have to the extra $110 as a delivery surcharge to meet our minimum.

This is one of the most common questions our technicians are asked about, and the truth is dependent on a few factors.

Rugs are by far one of the dirtiest items in your home.

Rugs are highly effective at trapping germs, dirt, dead skin, pollen, dust, allergens, bacteria, pet dander, rotting food particles, and even a variety of tiny bugs.

That’s why NYU Microbiologist Phillip Tierno recommends cleaning area rugs once every six months, while the American Lung Association recommends deep cleaning carpets once every year to maintain healthy air quality in your home.

Tierno found 7 pathogens, like E. Coli, stomach-flu causing Norovirs, and penicillin resistant MRSA can be commonly found in carpeting within the average home. With over 200,000 of bacteria per square inch of carpeting (making them 4,000 dirtier than the average toilet seat), the cleaning of area rugs should be a top health priority in your home.

There are a few situations in which you can be certain your rug cleaning is ready for professional rug cleaning services:

1. Your rug is in a high traffic area or it is visibly dirty.

Area rugs are extremely effective at hiding dust deep within their fibers. If you can see visible dirt on the surface, you can be sure that the worst of it, which can’t meet the eye, is hiding underneath and posing a potential health hazard.

2. You have stained your rug.

As covered in our article on what to do when you stain you rug, the best course of action is the extraction of the stain followed by a professional cleaning.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE STAIN YOURSELF OR SAVE A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY BY HAVING A CHEAP CARPET CLEANER COME OUT TO DO IT, YOU WILL MORE THAN LIKELY MAKE IT WORSE!!

This minimizes the risk of damage and maximizes the chances of avoiding costly professional stain removal services, as the probability that the stain will come out during the wash is highest.

3. Your rug is in a neglected, low traffic area for a prolonged amount of time.

This likely means that moth damage is a potential issue. While chances of moth damage may be minimized by regularly vacuuming the rug every two weeks, depending on the condition of the rug, some sticky moth larvae may survive and begin to populate and feed on the rugs over time. A professional cleaning would destroy any potential infection.

4. Allergies or asthma are a concern, and your rug has not been cleaned in more than six months.

Even if the rugs are in a low traffic area, area rugs are constantly absorbing air pollutants, steam from cooking oil, dead skin cells and other allergy-inducing particulates from the air. Unfortunately, they can then release those particulates back into the air, causing a hot of respiratory issues including asthma and allergies.While the truth may be frightening, the good news is that a professional area rug cleaning process is one of the most effective means of cleaning any household item in your home. That’s because submersion-based rug cleaning processes like ours soak rugs in water individually and have them cleaned with specialized detergents and machinery by hand in a process that can last two weeks to complete. The process, where necessary, can be more intensive than a shower, detailed car wash, and pressurized cleaning combined.
