Woven rugs are handcrafted textiles that require specialized care to preserve their fibers, colors, patterns, and structural integrity. At Jafri Rugs, we provide professional woven rug cleaning, repair, and restoration services for Persian, Oriental, antique, wool, silk, and other handmade woven rugs.
Whether your woven rug needs routine cleaning, stain removal, fringe repair, edge restoration, or extensive reweaving, our experienced rug specialists use careful cleaning and traditional restoration techniques to help protect your rug for years to come.
Dirt, dust, pet hair, stains, and other contaminants can become embedded deep within the weave of a rug. Over time, abrasive particles can contribute to fiber wear and deterioration.
Our professional woven rug cleaning process is customized according to the rug's materials, construction, age, dyes, and overall condition.
Our services include:
Before cleaning, each rug is carefully inspected to determine the safest and most effective treatment.
We examine the rug for stains, wear, loose threads, color stability, fringe damage, edge deterioration, moth damage, and other structural concerns.
Dry soil and abrasive particles are carefully removed before washing. This important step helps prevent embedded dirt from causing additional wear to the rug's fibers.
Each woven rug receives a cleaning method appropriate for its individual construction and fiber type. Delicate wool, silk, antique, and handmade rugs require specialized treatment to help protect their colors and structure.
Stains, pet accidents, odors, and other problem areas are treated according to the rug's materials and condition.
After cleaning, the rug is thoroughly dried under controlled conditions. Proper drying helps reduce the risk of mildew, excessive moisture, shrinkage, and dye migration.
Once cleaning is complete, the rug is carefully inspected to ensure it has been properly cleaned, dried, groomed, and prepared for return.
Woven rugs can develop damage from years of use, furniture, pets, moths, water exposure, or improper handling. Our woven rug repair and restoration services are designed to address both cosmetic and structural damage.
Depending on the condition of your rug, restoration may include:
When sections of a woven rug have been damaged or lost, hand reweaving can reconstruct the affected area. Skilled craftsmen carefully match the existing weave, fibers, colors, knots, and patterns as closely as possible.
Reweaving may be used to repair holes, tears, worn sections, and areas affected by moth or water damage.
The goal is to restore the rug's structural integrity while maintaining the character and appearance of the original handmade piece.
The ends and edges of a woven rug are particularly vulnerable to wear. Damaged fringe, loose foundation threads, and unraveling edges can become increasingly serious if left untreated.
Our woven rug fringe repair and edge binding services help stabilize these areas and prevent further deterioration.
Antique and vintage woven rugs require additional care because their fibers and foundations may have weakened with age. Restoration techniques are selected carefully to preserve as much of the original material and craftsmanship as possible.
Our specialists can evaluate antique woven rugs for cleaning, structural repairs, fringe restoration, reweaving, and other conservation needs.
At Jafri Rugs, we understand that every handmade rug is unique. A woven rug should not automatically be treated using the same process as conventional wall-to-wall carpeting.
Our approach combines:
From routine cleaning to extensive restoration, we provide comprehensive care for your valuable woven rugs.
Regular professional cleaning can help remove abrasive dirt before it causes unnecessary fiber wear. Addressing loose edges, damaged fringe, holes, and other problems early can also help prevent more extensive and costly repairs.
Proper cleaning, maintenance, and restoration can help extend the life of a handmade woven rug and preserve its beauty for generations.
If your woven rug needs professional cleaning, repair, or restoration, trust specialists who understand handmade textiles.

I bless the day I found Mr Jafri. As one who has collected rugs for 50 years, I both learned about their value and origins and had them beautifully cleaned and repaired.
Very beautiful rugs there, would have been a difficult decision. Only needed a rug pad this time. When we're in the market again, this is where we'll go. Pete, Delmar, NY
