Job completed for Stissing Rug Cleaning and Repair

1. Inspection & Identification

• Check fiber type (wool, silk, synthetic)
• Identify stains (pet urine, wine, dirt, oils)
• Look for damage (fraying, color bleeding risk)

2. Dusting / Dry Soil Removal

• Rugs hold a lot of dry soil deep in fibers
• Professionals use:
  • Industrial dusters or compressed air systems
  • Vibration machines

This is a crucial step and removes up to 70–80% of dirt before water is used.

3. Pre-Treatment

• Apply specialized solutions to:
  • Break down oils and grime
  • Loosen embedded dirt
• Spot-treat stains individually (pet stains, ink, etc.)

4. Deep Cleaning (Main Wash)

Depends on rug type:

• Hot water extraction (steam cleaning)
  • Common for synthetic rugs
• Immersion washing (submersion bath)
  • Used for wool, oriental, or heavily soiled rugs
• Low-moisture cleaning
  • For delicate or color-sensitive rugs

5. Rinse & Neutralization

• Thorough rinse to remove:
  • Cleaning agents
  • Dirt residues
• pH balancing to protect fibers and prevent stiffness

6. Water Extraction

• High-powered equipment removes most moisture
• Helps prevent:
  • Mold growth
  • Mildew odors

7. Controlled Drying

• Drying room or climate-controlled area

8. Grooming & Finishing

• Brush fibers to restore texture and alignment
• Fringe cleaning (if applicable)
• Final inspection for missed spots

9. Optional Protective Treatments

• Stain protection (like Scotchgard-type coatings)
• Deodorizing or antimicrobial treatments
