100,000-MILE SERVICE FOR A BEAUTIFUL HAND-KNOTTED WOOL RUG!

Before: Tired, heavily soiled, and showing its age.

After: Refreshed, rejuvenated, and ready for many more years of enjoyment!

One of the wonderful benefits of owning a quality hand-knotted wool rug on a cotton foundation is that, with proper professional care, it can last for generations.

This beautiful rug arrived at our cleaning plant with considerable accumulated soil throughout its wool pile and cotton foundation. Its cotton fringes were heavily soiled, worn, and weakened.

Rather than simply giving the rug a quick surface cleaning, we treated it to what we like to call its 100,000-mile service!

Our comprehensive restorative washing included repeated dusting, extensive flushing with copious amounts of fresh water, shampooing both sides of the rug and fringes with our proprietary blend of professional rug shampoo and conditioner, additional flushing and rinsing, climate-controlled drying, post-dusting, and final detailing.

And what a difference the fringe work made!

By meticulously trimming and detailing the worn, uneven fringes, we gave this traditional rug a neater, more contemporary appearance.

Shorter, neatly finished fringes aren’t just attractive. They’re also easier to live with and maintain!

The result? A beautiful hand-knotted wool rug with a new lease on life.

That’s the beauty of investing in a well-made rug. With proper maintenance and occasional professional attention, these rugs can provide decades of enjoyment.

At S.K. Hamrah Carpet & Rug Co., we believe fine rugs deserve more than ordinary cleaning.

We don’t simply wash rugs. We help preserve them.

Clean rugs last longer, feel better, smell better, and look better.

🎄 Before the guests arrive… take a look down.

Your area rugs quietly collect a lot over the years.

Dust. Fine grit. Pet hair. Spills. Odors. And plenty of dry soil that an ordinary household vacuum simply can’t reach.

The surprising part?

A good quality rug can still look pretty clean while hiding an incredible amount of soil deep within its foundation.

That’s why at S.K. Hamrah Carpet & Rug Co., we don’t believe in simply cleaning what you can see.

We start by removing deeply embedded dry particulate matter through our three-step dusting process:

• Pile-lift vacuuming
• Strap dusting from the back
• Air dusting from both sides

These steps are repeated as necessary until we’re satisfied that we’ve removed as much dry particulate matter as possible before the washing even begins.

Then your rug is individually washed, thoroughly rinsed, carefully dried, groomed and inspected.

No assembly-line rug washing.
No commingling your rug with other customers’ rugs.
Just individual, hands-on care and attention to detail.

We’ve been caring for rugs since 1934, and we still believe there’s a right way to do the job.

Way back in the day, rugs were routinely sent out for professional dusting and washing as part of normal household maintenance.

Many families even had summer rugs and winter rugs. Lightweight braided rugs, hooked rugs and flatweaves were commonly used during the warmer months, while heavier hand-knotted wool Oriental rugs came out for the winter.

As the seasons changed, rugs were rotated, professionally cleaned, repaired when necessary, properly padded and stored until they were needed again.

Rugs were maintained—not simply replaced.

That tradition of proper care is one of the reasons so many beautiful antique rugs still exist today and why quality rugs have been passed down from one generation to the next.

There was another benefit, too: fewer inexpensive synthetic rugs being treated as disposable products and eventually ending up in landfills.

At S.K. Hamrah Carpet & Rug Co., we still believe a good rug deserves proper care. Professional dusting, washing, repairs and the right rug pad can help protect your rugs and extend their useful life for many years to come.

We would love to help you care for yours.

At S.K. Hamrah Carpet & Rug Co., we’ve been caring for fine area rugs and Oriental rugs since 1934. While a lot has changed over the years, our approach has remained much the same—individual attention, old-world workmanship, and taking the time to do the job properly.

If your rugs haven’t been professionally cleaned in several years, this may be a good time to have them inspected. Even rugs that appear clean can accumulate deeply embedded dust, grit, pet odors, and other contaminants that ordinary vacuuming cannot remove.

Our in-house rug care services include:

* Thorough dust removal
* Deep restorative rug washing
* Pet urine and odor decontamination
* Moth treatment and protection
* Fringe and edge repairs
* Rug padding
* Pick-up and delivery service

All rug cleaning is performed individually in our own spotless cleaning facility—your rugs are never sent out.

If you have a rug we’ve cared for in the past—or even one we haven’t seen before—we’d be happy to take a look at it and recommend the appropriate level of care.

Thank you for trusting our family with your rugs over the years. We truly appreciate your past business and would be delighted to serve you again.

Sincerely,
