Stain Protection
The best time to apply stain protector is when your rugs are brand new or newly cleaned. As part of your regular area rug care and maintenance, have stain protector professionally applied by us after each cleaning so that spills don’t have a chance to turn into stains once your rugs are back home.
- Safe for all fiber types
- No texture change
- No discoloration
- No dye bleed
- No sticky residue
- No rapid re-soiling
Moth Treatment
If you see any signs of moth activity on or around your wool textiles, call us and let us know about it – quick!
- Tiny flying moths, beige in color
- Sticky webbing on wool textiles
- Small cocoons (looks like rice grains)
- Wriggling larvae
- Unusual bare patches of pile
- Holes in wool clothing
The faster we can inspect, contain, remove, treat, clean, and repair any damage to your area rugs, the faster you can get back to life the way it was before moths came to nest in your home.
It’s a good idea to get a step ahead of the moth problem while their major food source – your rugs – are out of the house. Call a local pest control company to come in and check your home for any remaining moth activity. They will treat and remove all traces before your rugs are returned to you.
Delicate Fiber Care
Rockford Rug Cleaners has years of experience working with some of the most challenging fiber types seen in designer, custom, and antique rugs. Everything we do here is with the most delicate fibers of your rug in mind. For example, if your rug is a combination of wool and silk, we treat to the silk fibers so that they are always protected throughout the process.
- Wool
- Silk
- Cotton
- Rayon
- Viscose
- Tencel
- Bamboo Silk
- Linen
- Sisal
- Metallics
Wrapping
It’s a good idea to have your area rugs wrapped well in order to keep them protected from dust, scuffs, and nesting pests while in storage or during shipping.
Kraft Paper: This short-term wrapping option is perfect for customers who need to tuck their area rugs away for a few weeks to a few months. Rugs are wrapped in a layer of Kraft paper and seams are sealed with tape.
Tyvek Paper: This long-term wrapping option is for customers needing to put their area rugs away for 6 months or more. Rugs receive a preventative moth treatment, are wrapped in a first layer of Kraft Paper wrapping, a second layer of Tyvek wrapping, and seams are sealed with tape.
Storage
After 30 days, we require that your rugs be returned to you. You may either pick them up from our office or call to schedule delivery.
If you require us to store your rugs for longer than our usual 30-day grace period, we are happy to make arrangements with you. All rugs being placed into storage in our facility must first be washed, preventatively treated for moths, and properly wrapped.
Rugs left behind longer than 30 days from notification of completion and not being placed into storage will be considered abandoned and are subject to disposal or donation at our discretion.
