An area rug should be assessed as its own textile, not simply as a small carpet. Fiber, dyes, backing, fringe and construction all matter when you request rug cleaning from Riptide Cleaning.
For Wellington properties, identify the indoor living or business areas that need service. If soil is being tracked in from outside, describe the affected entrance and routes through the room.
Keep outbuildings or other separate spaces itemized rather than assuming they are included in an indoor cleaning request.
For area & oriental rug cleaning, include:
Rug dimensions, fiber and construction if known
Fringe, backing and existing damage
Furniture, pad and handling requirements
Area & Oriental Rug Cleaning
Understand the condition before choosing the work.
Share what you know about the rug
Include dimensions, fiber information, a care label and whether it is hand-knotted, tufted or machine-made if known. A description such as “Oriental” does not identify every material or cleaning requirement. Mention fragile fringe, curled edges and previous dye transfer.
Match the request to the condition
Point out stains, odors and areas of heavy use. Wear, moth damage, faded dyes and damaged backing require different expectations from removable soil. If pet accidents are involved, include both the rug and pad in the discussion rather than treating the visible mark as the whole problem.
Confirm cleaning location and handling
Ask how the rug will be handled and where the work would take place. Pickup, off-site washing and specialty restoration should not be assumed. Discuss the floor underneath, furniture resting on the rug, drying arrangements and when the rug can be returned to use.
Can an Oriental rug be cleaned like fitted carpet?
Not necessarily. Construction, dyes and fibers affect suitability. Provide available rug details before deciding on a method.
Do you pick up rugs?
Confirm handling and service arrangements when requesting a quote. Pickup and off-site cleaning are not stated as standard inclusions on this site.
Should I mention a rug pad or pet accident?
Yes. Odor or moisture may involve the pad or surface underneath, so include that context in the request.
