Why we don’t clean area rugs in homes.

Good morning!

At Classic Care, we prioritize the proper care of your area rugs, which is why we don't clean them in homes or with wall-to-wall carpet cleaning equipment. Here's why:

1. Construction Differences:

Wall-to-Wall Carpets: Have a plastic backing suitable for top vacuuming.

Area Rugs: Feature tightly woven foundations that trap dirt, requiring specialized dusting equipment like our badger, which isn't usable in homes.

2. Dirt Removal:

Carpet cleaning tools clean surface fibers, but area rugs need deep cleaning to remove embedded dirt. Improper cleaning mixes dirt with water and cleaning agents, forming a plaster-like substance that damages fibers.

3. Heat Sensitivity:

High heat from carpet cleaners can damage the fibers and dyes of area rugs, especially wool.

4. Drying Time:

Quick drying prevents mold and mildew. Our facilities ensure rapid drying with centrifuges and hanging racks with fans.

5. Chemical Use:

Cleaning chemistry for nylon carpets differs from what's safe for natural fiber rugs. Using the wrong products can harm your rugs.

6. Safety and Cleanliness:

Cleaning area rugs in place can damage your flooring and carpet. Our specialized equipment and controlled environment ensure safe, thorough cleaning.

0Effective area rug cleaning is essential to the good health of your family. Research at Duke University revealed that dust particles found in homes are capable of carrying hormone-altering chemicals that make the human body gain unhealthy weight. Amounts of dust as small as 3 micrograms are capable of causing measurable health complications for children. Dust particles contain synthetic, natural and endocrine-disrupting chemicals that are inhaled, ingested and absorbed through the skin. Dust lodged in your blinds furniture or carpets could be a primary culprit for breathing problems. When you neglect cleaning for an extended period, these particle's get into the air and pollute the air quality, potentially resulting in respiratory issues long term.

Potential Health Risks Can be Avoided

Rugs can trap allergens and germs and potentially increasing the risk of an asthma attack and other issues. Sanitizing your rugs reduces allergens and removes unhealthy bacteria—all part of having a healthy home. Potential health risks that may be caused by a "dusty home" include learning disabilities, cognitive problems and weight gain. Rugs require professional care—dirt can build up in hard to clean areas. We use a unique, long-lasting carpet cleaning process that is both natural and healthy for your pets and children.

We are Specialists in Antique as Well as New Area Rugs

All rugs are thoroughly inspected before the cleaning process begins. Our unique 7 step process will remove the dirt and grit that builds up between the fibers—the main cause of rugs wearing out.
