How to Clean and Maintain Your Rugs Like a Pro
A rug is an investment—and like any investment, it needs care. Regular maintenance not only keeps it looking great but also extends its lifespan. Here’s how to care for your rugs properly.
Daily & Weekly Care
Vacuum regularly: At least once a week, more in high-traffic areas.
Shake small rugs outdoors to remove dust.
Brush fringes gently instead of vacuuming to avoid damage.
Stain Removal Tips
Blot, don’t rub: Use a clean cloth to soak up spills immediately.
Wine/coffee stains: Dab with a vinegar and water solution.
Pet accidents: Use mild soap and water, then deodorize with baking soda.
Deep Cleaning
Steam clean every 12–18 months (depending on usage).
Professional cleaning is recommended for delicate fibers like wool or silk.
Pro Tips
Rotate rugs every 6 months to prevent uneven fading.
Always use a rug pad for protection and longevity.
Final Thoughts
With the right care, your rug will stay fresh and beautiful for years. A few minutes of weekly maintenance can make a world of difference.
