We Provide Top-Notch Cleaning to All Types of Area Rugs

• Persian Rugs: Renowned for their elaborate patterns and superb craftsmanship, Persian rugs are a symbol of timeless elegance. Crafted with the utmost precision and care, these rugs demand gentle cleaning methods to preserve their intricate details and luxurious textures.
• Oriental Rugs: Originating from diverse Asian regions, Oriental rugs boast vibrant hues and captivating motifs that tell stories of ancient cultures. To maintain their exquisite beauty, these rugs require specialized cleaning techniques tailored to their unique materials and intricate designs.
• Wool Rugs: Embraced for their resilience and natural stain resistance, wool rugs are a favorite choice for many households. However, their dense fibers can harbor dirt and grime, calling for thorough cleaning approaches to restore their plushness and luster.
• Silk Rugs: Exuding opulence and refinement, silk rugs epitomize luxury with their soft textures and luminous sheen. Due to the delicate nature of silk fibers, expert handling, and meticulous cleaning techniques are essential to preserving their delicate beauty and integrity.
• Hand-Knotted Rugs: Bearing the mark of skilled artisans, hand-knotted rugs showcase exquisite craftsmanship and intricate designs woven with precision. Protecting the intricate knots and patterns requires careful attention and gentle cleaning methods to ensure these masterpieces retain their allure for generations to come.
• Woven Rugs: Available in an array of materials and patterns, woven rugs add character and charm to any space. Each type of woven rug demands a unique cleaning approach tailored to its construction and materials to effectively remove dirt and stains without compromising its quality.
• Synthetic Rugs: Crafted from durable materials like nylon or polyester, synthetic rugs offer practicality and resilience for high-traffic areas. Despite their durability, synthetic rugs can present cleaning challenges, requiring specialized treatments to effectively remove stains while preserving their vibrant colors and textures.

  Great little dry cleaner in El Cerrito. Gets the job done and goes above and beyond to help when possible. I dropped off some things and the estimated time of completion was a few days later than I needed but they managed to get it to me in time! While this is not necessarily guaranteed, I really appreciated the extra help.

They also run good specials!
