Area Rug Cleaning in Melbourne

A good rug pulls a room together, and it cops a lot for its trouble. Feet, pets, spills and plenty of Melbourne dust all end up deep in the pile. Our area rug cleaning lifts out the dust, allergens and grime a vacuum leaves behind, so your rug looks fresher and lasts longer.

We clean large and small area rugs for homes across Melbourne, Geelong and Ballarat. It’s the same careful, fabric-first approach we’ve taken with Melbourne’s curtains and drapes since 1983.

What we clean

We clean area rugs of all sizes, from hallway runners to the big rug under the dining table. Bring us the one that’s overdue for a freshen-up, the one with the red wine mark, or the one heading into storage.

Not sure your rug can be cleaned? Tell us what it’s made of, or email a photo of the label, and we’ll let you know before you book.

How we clean your rug

• We check it first. We look at the fibre, backing, dyes and any marks, and tell you upfront if anything needs special care.
• We treat the problem spots. Stains and high-traffic areas get attention before the main clean.
• We clean the whole rug in our plant. The method is matched to the rug: gentle on delicate pieces, thorough on ground-in dirt.
• We check it again. Your rug comes back clean, dry and ready to lay down or wrap for storage.

Turnaround and getting your rug to us

Turnaround depends on the rug’s size and how much work it needs, so we confirm timing when we quote. Give us a call and we’ll talk you through the easiest way to get it to us.

Why it’s worth doing

Dust mites, pollen and mould spores settle deep in a rug’s pile, which is no fun for anyone at home with allergies. Grit trodden into the fibres also wears them down over time. A professional clean clears out both and helps a good rug last for years.
