PROFESSIONAL RUG WASHING ON LONG ISLAND

Hand-Washed, Deep-Cleaned, and Delivered Back to Your Door. We bring new life to every rug we touch with pickup and delivery across Nassau and Suffolk County available.

WHAT IS PROFESSIONAL RUG WASHING?

Professional rug washing is a full-immersion cleaning process where your rug is submerged in water and gently agitated to flush out deep-seated dirt, allergens, bacteria, and odors that vacuuming and spot cleaning simply cannot reach. Unlike in-home steam cleaning or dry cleaning, professional rug washing treats the entire rug — front, back, and foundation — for a truly thorough clean.

 

At Around The Clock, we wash rugs at our dedicated facility using controlled water temperature, pH-balanced cleaning solutions, and techniques tailored to each rug’s specific fiber type and construction. Whether your rug is a hand-knotted Persian heirloom or a machine-made synthetic, our process is calibrated to deliver the deepest possible clean without risking damage to the fibers, dyes, or backing.

 

The result? A rug that looks brighter, feels softer, and smells completely fresh — free from the dust mites, pet dander, pollen, and embedded grime that build up over months and years of everyday use. It’s the single most effective way to restore your rug and extend its lifespan.

RUG TYPES WE CLEAN

No matter the origin, material, or age of your rug, our team has the expertise to clean it safely and thoroughly.

PERSIAN RUGS

Hand-knotted masterpieces deserve expert care. We protect intricate patterns, natural dyes, and delicate wool or silk fibers throughout the washing process.

ORIENTAL RUGS

From Turkish to Chinese, our cleaning methods honor traditional craftsmanship while removing decades of embedded soil and restoring vibrant color.

WOOL RUGS

Wool’s natural lanolin and resilient fibers respond beautifully to full-immersion washing. We clean wool rugs without shrinkage or texture loss.

SYNTHETIC RUGS

Polypropylene, nylon, and polyester rugs get a deep clean that removes embedded dirt and refreshes colors.

SHAG RUGS

Long pile traps more dirt than any other rug type. Our process reaches deep into shag fibers to extract soil, dust, and allergens you can’t vacuum away.

SILK RUGS

Silk demands the gentlest touch. We hand-wash silk rugs with specialized solutions that preserve their luster, drape, and incredibly fine weave.

 

VISCOSE RUGS

Viscose rugs may look like silk, but they’re far more fragile. We safely clean delicate viscose fibers and can even reverse cellulosic browning.

HANDMADE RUGS

Hand-tufted, hand-loomed, and custom-designed rugs all receive individualized cleaning plans based on their unique construction and materials.

RUG WASHING FAQ

How long does professional rug washing take?

Most rugs are ready to be returned within 1-2 weeks. The exact timeline depends on the rug's size, material, and condition. If your rug needs specialized stain treatment or repair, it may take a few extra days. We also offer rush service for faster turnaround — just ask when you schedule your pickup.

Is professional rug washing safe for all rug types?

Yes. Before any cleaning begins, our technicians inspect your rug to identify its fiber type, dye stability, and construction method. We then tailor our cleaning process to match. We will let contact you and discuss your options if your rug is a better candidate for one of our other cleaning techniques due to factors like bleeding, crocking, or fiber integrity.

What is the difference between rug washing and carpet cleaning?

Carpet cleaning typically uses hot-water extraction (steam cleaning) on wall-to-wall carpeting that stays in place. Professional rug washing is a completely different process. Your rug is picked up, brought to our facility, fully submerged and washed with controlled water flow, rinsed thoroughly, and dried flat or hung up on our rack in a climate-controlled environment. This process removes far more soil, allergens, and odors than in-home carpet cleaning ever could.

How much does professional rug washing cost on Long Island?

Pricing depends on your rug's size, material, and condition. Most standard area rugs cost between $3 and $6 per square foot. Use our free online Rug Price Calculator for an instant estimate, or call us at (631) 270-4254 for a personalized quote. Pickup and delivery is available across Nassau and Suffolk County or you can always drop off your rug and save 20% on the cleaning price.
