OUR PROCESS

Ron’s 6-Step Oriental Rug Cleaning Process

At Ron’s Total Home Services, each rug is carefully evaluated and cleaned using a proven multi-step process designed to deliver safe, thorough results.

Step 1: Detailed Inspection

Each rug is carefully inspected to evaluate fiber type, construction, color stability, and the level of soiling or staining.

Step 2: Dust Removal

Dry soil and debris are removed using specialized dusting equipment that loosens particles trapped deep within the rug fibers.

Step 3: Professional Washing

The rug is washed using safe cleaning solutions and methods appropriate for the rug’s material and condition.

Step 4: Thorough Rinsing

Rinsing removes dirt, cleaning solutions, and contaminants from the fibers.

Step 5: Grooming

The rug fibers are carefully groomed to restore their natural texture and appearance.

Step 6: Controlled Drying

The rug is dried in a controlled environment to prevent shrinkage, dye bleeding, or fiber damage.

Why Professional Rug Cleaning Is Important

Area rugs and oriental rugs act like filters within your home, trapping dust, dirt, allergens, and oils deep within their fibers. Over time, this buildup can dull colors, weaken fibers, and cause unpleasant odors if not properly removed.

Regular vacuuming helps maintain surface cleanliness, but it cannot remove the deep contaminants embedded within the rug’s structure.



Professional rug cleaning helps:


  • Remove deep-set dirt and allergens
  • Restore color vibrancy and softness
  • Eliminate odors caused by spills or pets
  • Protect delicate fibers and dyes
  • Extend the lifespan of the rug


Many oriental rugs are valuable pieces that deserve careful maintenance. Professional cleaning ensures that these rugs are cleaned safely using methods appropriate for their specific construction and materials.

Common Myths About Oriental Rugs

Many homeowners are unsure how to properly care for their oriental rugs. Several common myths can actually lead to improper maintenance.

Myth: Oriental rugs should never be cleaned.

In reality, regular professional cleaning helps preserve the rug’s fibers and appearance.

Myth: All oriental rugs increase in value.

While some antique rugs may appreciate in value, many modern rugs require proper maintenance to retain their quality.

Myth: Knot count determines rug quality.

While knot count can indicate craftsmanship, other factors such as fiber type, dye quality, and weaving technique also play a role.

Convenient Rug Pickup and Delivery

Transporting large rugs can be difficult and inconvenient for many homeowners. To make the process easier, Ron’s Total Home Services offers convenient pickup and delivery services throughout the Upstate South Carolina region.



Our team carefully removes your rug, transports it to our cleaning facility, and returns it once the cleaning process is complete.

This service makes professional rug cleaning simple and stress-free.

Proper Care Between Professional Cleanings

Maintaining your rug between professional cleanings can help preserve its condition.

Vacuum Regularly

Vacuuming removes dirt before it becomes embedded in the rug fibers. Avoid using beater bars on delicate rugs.

Rotate Your Rug

Rotating rugs every six to twelve months helps ensure even wear from foot traffic.

Address Spills Quickly

Blot spills immediately with a clean cloth to prevent staining.

Use Quality Rug Padding

Padding beneath the rug helps prevent slipping and reduces wear on the fibers.
