How our rug cleaning Melbourne process works – step by step

Pre Treatment

Targeting tough rug stains before the main clean. Heavily soiled areas or stubborn stains are pre-treated with specialised rug stain removal solutions, matched to your rug’s fabric and dye type.
2 .

Rug steam cleaning in Melbourne

For most rugs made from resilient materials, we use hot water extraction – the most effective method for deep rug cleaning. Warm water and a gentle and pH-balanced
3 .

Rug dry cleaning near me

For delicate, vintage, handwoven or high-value rugs Persian and Oriental pieces included, we use low moisture or dry cleaning methods. This protects the rug’s texture, structure and colour integrity

Scotchgard Protection & Finishing

Once your rug wash is complete, we can apply a Scotchgard protective treatment on request. This forms an invisible barrier across the rug’s fibres, repelling future spills, dirt and staining

Rug types we clean in Melbourne

Wool rug cleaning

Wool rugs are durable but need careful handling — the wrong detergent or too much moisture can cause shrinkage or colour bleeding. Our wool rug cleaning process uses gentle, pH-balanced solutions and low-moisture extraction to deep clean without damaging the fibres.

Persian rug cleaning

Persian rugs are valuable and delicate — every one is different. Our Persian rug cleaning service assesses each rug individually before we touch it, ensuring the dyes, pile, and structure are fully protected throughout the clean.

Oriental rug cleaning

Hand-knotted and full of character, Oriental rugs need a specialist touch. Our Oriental rug cleaning team in Melbourne uses low-moisture methods to lift dirt and restore vibrancy — without risking the intricate patterns or natural fibres.

Silk & delicate rug cleaning

Silk rugs need the gentlest possible approach. We use rug dry cleaning methods for silk and other delicate materials — no excess moisture, no harsh chemicals, no risk to the sheen or structure.

Vintage & handwoven rug cleaning

Got an older or handcrafted rug? These pieces need extra care and attention. Our team treats every vintage rug as the unique item it is — assessing condition, dye stability, and fibre type before selecting the safest rug cleaning method.

Synthetic rug cleaning

Synthetic rugs are hardwearing and common in busy family homes. They respond brilliantly to rug steam cleaning — our hot water extraction method cuts through everyday dirt, pet dander, and stains quickly and effectively.

Rug cleaning Melbourne FAQ

Q: What’s included in a professional rug cleaning service?
A: A professional rug cleaning service includes stain pre-treatment, steam or dry cleaning matched to the rug’s material, deep extraction of dirt and allergens, deodorising, and fast-drying. Optional Scotchgard protection is available on request.
Q: What’s not included in rug cleaning?
A: Rug cleaning does not include permanent repair of tears or moth damage, full colour restoration on sun-faded rugs, or guaranteed removal of stains that have set in for years. Pick-up and drop-off and Scotchgard protection are optional add-ons, not part of the base service.
