Types of Afghan Rugs We Clean

Afghan rugs are handmade masterpieces with deep cultural roots. These wool rugs are durable, with unique, complex patterns, vibrant colors, and rich histories. They require extra care and are vulnerable to the wrong cleaning and overexposure to sunlight. Types of Afghan rugs we clean include:

  • Baluchi rugs
  • Turkmen rugs
  • Kabul rugs
  • Herat rugs

Afghan Rug Issues to Watch

Like all other rugs, Afghan rugs can soil heavily over time and require extra attention. In caring for your Afghan rug, limit its exposure to water to avoid mold or mildew growth. Stains, odors, and dust can become difficult to remove with routine cleaning.

Remove Afghan Rug Dust & Dirt

Over time, Afghan rugs collect much dirt and dust. Their appearance can become dull and rug fibers brittle or damaged. With professional cleaning by Steam Sweepers, extract that unwanted dust and dirt from your prized Afghan rug. Professional cleaning means deep cleaning. Our experts utilize ideal cleaning methods for Afghan rugs, based on their specific characteristics. Turn to Steam Sweepers for the best rug cleaning, drying, protection, and other care.

We Tackle Stains From Spills & Pets

Accidental spills or pet accidents can leave your Afghan or other rugs in poor condition. Odors, mildew, unsightly stains, and a general unattractiveness will leave you wanting solutions. Rely on the Steam Sweepers experts for effective pet and other stain removal, as well as the following:

Our Rug Odor & Allergen Removal

You know pets can have accidents that leave odors on any area rug. Afghan rugs can trap unpleasant odors, pet dander, dust, and make them an allergen breeding ground.

Allergens aggravate breathing problems, asthma, allergies, coughing, and other triggers. Turn to Steam Sweepers for effective allergen and rug pet odor removal.

Effective Immersion Rug Washing

Steam Sweepers knows that not all rugs are made for machine washing. Some delicate rugs need extra attention and specialized immersion rug cleaning. At Steam Sweepers Rug Cleaning, our experts use this effective cold-water rug cleaning method, which has a long history of proven results. It's a technique we have mastered, especially for more delicate pieces that include Afghan rugs.
