Professional Rug Cleaning Perris, CA - Experts in Handmade Rugs

This Perris project came from a homeowner who had recently hired a low-cost rug cleaner and was left disappointed with the results. The rugs were returned looking mostly the same, still stiff in areas, with residue left behind that made them feel worse than before.

When Cleaning Goes Wrong

When the rugs arrived, it was clear they had been surface cleaned only. Soil was still trapped deep in the fibers, and there was visible detergent residue that had dried unevenly. In some areas, the pile felt crunchy, a common sign of improper rinsing and overuse of cleaning chemicals.

Correcting the Previous Cleaning

The first step was undoing the damage. We carefully flushed out leftover soap and contaminants before performing a full, fiber-safe cleaning designed to release what the previous process had left behind. By allowing the rugs to fully rinse and reset, we were able to restore softness and balance to the fibers rather than masking the problem.

Once dry, the rugs felt lighter, cleaner, and far more comfortable underfoot. Colors appeared clearer, and the stiffness caused by residue was gone. The homeowner immediately noticed the difference and was relieved to finally see the rugs cleaned properly.
