We offer a full and competitive rug cleaning and repair service on all sizes of rugs and kilims. We have undertaken specialist restoration work including cleaning and repairs, insurance salvage work following floods, fire and accidental damage and are now recommended by many local and national insurers.
You can take advantage of our expertise by having your rug cleaned in our own workshop. Not only will you have the peace of mind that your rug will receive professional care and attention, we can also arrange for any item to be collected and delivered back to you*.
It is advisable to have your rug professionally cleaned approximately every 5 – 7 years. Cleaning in this way removes any deep seated grit and dirt that vacuuming alone cannot reach, thereby reducing any abrasive action at the base of the knots and on wool fibres. Furthermore removal of everyday surface dirt and stains helps restore the rug to its original colours – sometimes the finished results are quite dramatic!
Repairs can be anything from simply securing edges or fringes thereby preventing further erosion, right through to re-weaving holes and damaged areas of pile, e.g. following fire damage. Charges vary depending upon type and size of rug and it’s repair but estimates are free so please do not hesitate to contact us.
*A small additional charge may be payable for deliveries/collections of cleaning or repair work outside of Norwich, pieces can of course be delivered/collected in person from our Bedford Street showrooms.
