San Marcos, California Specialty Rug Cleaners
Looking for expert cleaning for your fine area rug? Our highly trained and certified rug cleaning technicians are ready to serve you in San Marcos. Whether that’s for a valuable antique, a family treasure, or a contemporary designer rug you love. Regular cleaning is important for appearance but also to remove dust and soil trapped deep within, beyond where vacuuming can reach. Otherwise rugs experience unnecessary wear and you experience unnecessary allergens. But steam cleaning or bonnet dry cleaning can permanently damage them. Our team knows what to do to clean each and every type of fine rug, and can also restore and rejuvenate neglected rugs to last for generations.
Our specific expertise includes antique, Chinese, horse blanket, Indian, Navajo, needlepoint, Oriental, Persian, tapestry, Tibetan, tribal, and Turkish rugs. Including the extra-special care required for silk and wool fibers.
A Full Line of Services in San Marcos
We’re known throughout the San Marcos area for our outstanding cleaning services. We round that out with a full line of fine area rug care.
- Full immersion cleaning — a centuries-old process combined with modern cleansers.
- Hand dry cleaning for delicate fibers (such as silk and jute as well as man-made fibers such as art silk, banana silk, and processed bamboo) as well as for non-colorfast dyes.
- Dusting to remove textile-cutting dust and irritants in between cleanings.
- Pet urine treatment to reduce or eliminate stains and remove odors using specially formulated products.
- Allergy treatment using natural products to reduce the effects of dust, pollen, and dander.
- Moth and pest treatment to kill eggs and larvae as well as adult insects. It’s the larvae that do damage by feeding on natural fibers.
- Rug padding using clean, natural felt to reduce the uneven wear and trip hazards of shifting, curling, and wrinkling.
- Tea washing restores the “antiquing” treatment sometimes applied to fringe.
- Preparation and storage begins with thorough cleaning and drying. We’ll then apply insect retardant and wrap each rug. During storage at our facility we’ll periodically check their condition.
Although we don’t perform other than minor repairs we’re happy to refer you to a local San Marcos specialist. We can also make referrals for formal appraisals.
Our 8-Step Immersion Cleaning Process
Full immersion cleaning is the method preferred by experts and museums for most Oriental, Persian, and specialty rugs. Our process is to always wash each rug individually by hand using purified water and mild products carefully selected for each combination of textile fibers and construction.

San Marcos?
The area that became San Marcos California was first settled in the early 1880s. It’s name came from the San Marcos Land Company, which purchased land in 1887 and divided it into tracts. But the population didn’t really grow until the arrival of water from the Colorado River in 1956.
