Persian & Oriental Rug Cleaning London

Preserving Tradition. Restoring Beauty.

Your Persian or Oriental rug is far more than a floor covering—it’s a handcrafted work of art, often taking months or even years to weave. Whether your rug has been passed down through generations or recently purchased as the centrepiece of your home, it deserves specialist care from experienced professionals.

At London Air Cleaning Company, we provide a premium Persian and Oriental rug cleaning service designed specifically for delicate handmade rugs. Every rug is individually assessed, cleaned using the safest techniques available, and treated with the utmost care to preserve its colour, fibres and value.

Why Specialist Rug Cleaning Matters

Unlike machine-made rugs, Persian and Oriental rugs are woven using natural fibres such as wool, silk and cotton, with vegetable or natural dyes that can easily be damaged by incorrect cleaning methods.

Using ordinary carpet cleaning equipment or harsh chemicals can lead to:

* Colour bleeding

* Fibre damage

* Shrinkage

* Dye migration

* Fraying

* Permanent texture changes

Our specialist cleaning process is specifically designed to eliminate these risks while delivering exceptional cleaning results.

Our Specialist Cleaning Process

1. Detailed Rug Inspection

Every rug is carefully examined to determine:

* Fibre composition

* Weave construction

* Dye stability

* Existing damage

* Previous repairs

* Heavy traffic areas

* Stains and odours

This allows us to choose the safest and most effective cleaning method.

⸻

2. Specialist Dust Removal

One of the biggest causes of rug deterioration is dry soil.

Years of microscopic grit become trapped deep inside the pile where ordinary vacuuming simply cannot reach.

Using professional dust extraction equipment, we safely remove embedded dirt before any washing begins.

⸻

3. Gentle Pre-Treatment

Stains and heavily soiled areas receive specialist treatment using premium eco-friendly cleaning solutions that are safe for:

* Wool

* Silk

* Cotton

* Natural fibres

Our cleaning products are also safe around children and pets.

⸻

4. Deep Cleaning

Depending on the rug’s construction, we use the most appropriate cleaning technique to safely lift years of dirt, allergens, bacteria and odours without damaging the fibres.

Each rug receives an individual cleaning process—not a one-size-fits-all approach.

5. Controlled Drying

Proper drying is essential.

We use controlled drying methods to prevent:

* Browning

* Shrinkage

* Mould

* Fibre distortion

6. Final Grooming & Quality Inspection

Before your rug is returned, we:

* Groom the pile

* Inspect every fibre

* Check fringe condition

* Ensure colours remain vibrant

* Confirm every stain possible has been treated

Only then is your rug ready for delivery.
