Indian Wool Rug Cleaning in Laguna Beach, CA

This lush, handmade wool rug from India, located in a beautiful home in Laguna Beach, CA, arrived at our facility with embedded pet stains, noticeable odor, and a heavy accumulation of pet hair and lint. The thick wool pile had trapped layers of debris that dulled its vibrancy and compromised its softness. Before any washing began, our technicians performed a meticulous inspection, followed by a vigorous dusting process that dislodged a significant amount of hair, lint, and dry soil, as seen in the photo.

 

What Was Done:

• In-Plant Dusting: Specialized equipment was used to release and extract pet hair, dander, and deeply lodged lint that had settled into the rug’s foundation. This step is vital in allowing the cleaning agents to penetrate effectively later on.
• Pet Stain Pre-Treatment: A wool-safe enzymatic solution was carefully applied to all pet-contaminated areas to neutralize odor and break down the organic stains without harming the fibers or dyes.
• Full Submersion Hand Washing: The rug was gently hand-washed in a shallow pool using pH-balanced soaps. This allowed for full saturation of the fibers and deep flushing of residual pet contaminants, restoring freshness throughout the rug.
• Fringe Cleaning: The cotton fringe was cleaned separately by hand to remove staining and discoloration caused by pet accidents and everyday use. The result was a clean, uniform fringe that frames the rug beautifully once again.
• Controlled Drying: After thorough rinsing, the rug was dried flat in our climate-controlled facility to prevent shrinkage, warping, or dye migration.

✨ The Result:

This Indian wool rug’s elegant, thick pile now feels renewed and luxuriously soft, with its vibrant colors and original charm fully restored. The pet stains and odors have been completely eliminated, and the fringe is bright and evenly cleaned. Our custom cleaning process gave this treasured rug in Laguna Beach, CA a fresh start, ready to enhance the home once again.
