Rug Care & Tips

Vacuuming
Hand woven & machine made rugs need weekly vacuuming to clean and restore life to the fibers. Never use rotating brushes on fringes.

Pad
A high quality, custom-cut pad will cushion your rug and help keep it in place, thereby extending the life of the rug, we do carry an assortment of high quality pads for purchase.

Rotation
To minimize wear and tear on the rug and fringe, rotate your rug regularly, perhaps every three to six months. Rugs in lightly used locations can be rotated once a year to help you to keep your rugs looking beautiful for years to come.

Cleaning
Area Rugs should be dusted and washed each year (rugs in lightly used locations can go up to two years between cleanings). Alpine Specialty Cleaning will use the best cleaning method available for your rug and its fringe to bring back the beauty, warmth, and glow of your woven treasure.

Protection Against Moths

• Make sure rugs are exposed to light and air.
• Vacuum both sides at least once a month where furniture sits on top of rug.
• Check underside of rug periodically for moth larvae or holes.
• If moths are detected, check other wool rugs for damage (moth spread quickly).
• Then take rugs in for professional cleaning and mothproofing.

Rug Pad
