Area Rug Cleaning Services

At Excellence Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning, we provide expert area rug cleaning with the same care and attention to detail that we give to wall-to-wall carpets and upholstery. Whether it’s a modern synthetic rug or a delicate wool or oriental piece, we’ll leave it clean, fresh, and revitalized—right in the comfort of your home.

On-Site Area Rug Cleaning

We clean the vast majority of area rugs on-site using our advanced truck-mounted hot water extraction system. This means no need to haul your rugs to a shop or wait days for their return—we clean them right in your home and ensure they dry quickly and thoroughly.

Off-Site Rug Cleaning (By Request)

For certain delicate or specialty rugs, we offer a pickup and return service. We’ll assess whether off-site cleaning is necessary and handle the transport safely, keeping you updated every step of the way.

Our Area Rug Cleaning Process

  1. Pre-Inspection – We identify fiber type, construction, and potential issues before cleaning begins.
  2. Pre-Vacuuming – Dry soil is removed using a commercial HEPA vacuum for better results.
  3. Pre-Spray Treatment – Soiled areas are treated with our safe, effective Axiom Green cleaning solution.
  4. Hot Water Extraction – We use our truck-mounted system for a deep, restorative clean.
  5. Post-Spotting – Any remaining spots are treated individually for best results.
  6. Quick Drying – Our powerful equipment leaves rugs cleaner and drier with less waiting time.

Rugs We Commonly Clean

  • Wool Rugs
  • Synthetic Rugs (Polyester, Nylon, Olefin)
  • Oriental and Persian Rugs (some may require off-site)

  • Entryway and Accent Rugs

Note: We’ll evaluate fiber type and construction to determine the safest cleaning method during the pre-inspection phase.

Why Clean Area Rugs Professionally?

Area rugs collect dirt, allergens, dust mites, pet dander, and spills—just like wall-to-wall carpeting. Over time, these contaminants build up, causing wear, odors, and even affecting indoor air quality. Our professional cleaning removes deep-set soils and restores your rug’s appearance, color, and softness.

Optional Add-On Services

  • Rug Protector Application – Helps resist stains and extend the life of your rug
  • Pet Stain & Odor Treatment – Specialized solutions for urine and organic contamination
  • Deodorizing – Neutralizes musty or persistent odors
