Why did the customer contact us?

As the Hudson Valley's authority on rug cleaning and restoration this customer had a newly made rug whose pet had destroyed certain areas of the rug. The rug was stained with urine and dog feces. Jafri Rug's experience is in antique rug restoration and cleaning of all types of rugs including but not limited to: wool, silk, sisal, viscose, bamboo, cotton, polyester, etc.

Jafri's authoritativeness comes from its loyalty and trustworthiness from its customers who confide in the organic cleaning, precision, artistry, and attention to detail to each rug.

This type of rug is made with wool and viscose and requires a very specific type of wash. If washed incorrectly this can cause shrinkage or color run/bleeding.

Solutions provided:

1. Inspection and Assessment

• 
  The first step in Jafri Rugs restoration is a detailed inspection to assess
  the extent of the damage. This includes evaluating areas of wear, unraveling
  threads, fading colors, and any holes or tears in the rug. Special attention
  is given to preserving the original design and integrity of the stitching.
  

2. Cleaning Before Restoration

• 
  Before any restoration work begins, the rug must be cleaned thoroughly.
  Cleaning ensures that any accumulated dirt or stains are removed so that the
  restoration work can be done on a clean surface. This also helps identify
  areas that may require special attention during the restoration process.
  

3. Reweaving Damaged Sections

• 
  Reweaving: If the rug has areas of missing or damaged
  stitches, skilled artisans can reweave the missing sections, matching the
  original patterns and colors as closely as possible. This requires a high
  level of expertise to ensure the new stitches blend seamlessly with the rest
  of the rug.
  

4. Fringe and Edge Repair

• 
  The fringe of a rug is often subjected to wear over time. If the fringe is
  frayed or missing, it can be reattached or replaced by hand, ensuring that
  it matches the original design and material.
  


• 
  The edges of the rug may also need reinforcing or re-binding if they have
  started to unravel. This can be done by re-stitching or using a similar
  material to secure the edges.
  

5. Dyeing and Color Restoration

• 
  Color Fading: Over time, the dyes in a needlepoint rug may
  fade due to exposure to sunlight, wear, or improper cleaning. Skilled
  restoration experts can re-dye the affected areas using professional,
  colorfast dyes to restore the rug’s original hues.
  


• 
  Matching Colors: When dyeing a rug, it’s critical to match
  the colors exactly to ensure that the restoration is seamless. This process
  is usually done by hand to ensure accuracy.
  

6. Final Inspection

• 
  Once all the restoration work is completed, a final inspection is conducted
  to ensure the rug is restored to its original condition. The rug is checked
  for any missed areas, color inconsistencies, or stitching issues that may
  need to be addressed before it’s returned.
