Area Rug Cleaning

Area Rugs are well known for their comfort, warmth, and the vibrance they add to a space. They can perfectly complement and accentuate a space with their color and decorative placement. Another common use of area rugs apart from beautifying a space is to use it as a base for placing furniture so that they don’t damage the floor when it is moved or shifted. There are different types of area rugs you can get in your space based on your preference for the material and the intended use.

Area Rug Materials
Area Rugs are made from different materials like wool, jute, cotton, or silk. The type of material you go for is based on how long you plan on using the area rug and whether or not you are particular about handmade or machine-made rugs. Area rugs made from natural fibers like wool and silk are more expensive and durable (when taken care of properly) than the rest. There are also nylon rugs, polyethylene rugs, olefin rugs and they are also durable. The type of material for the rug also determines how it would be cleaned so you should keep that in mind.
