If you've been searching for Persian rug cleaning in Boulder, or Persian rug cleaning near me — you just found the right place. This Afghan Kazak came through our door recently and stopped everyone in the shop. Rust-red field, deep navy border, stylized cypress tree medallions, and Ghazni wool with a natural luster that photographs don't capture. It came in for a full professional cleaning and fringe repair — loved by its owner, brought to us to be taken care of properly. Here's exactly what our Persian rug cleaning process looked like on this piece, why dye testing matters before any water touches a rug like this, and why fringe repair is more urgent than most owners realize.

Rug Shield. Protect your rugs.

You just spent good money having your rug professionally cleaned. The colors are alive again. The pile is soft. It looks the way it did when you first brought it home. Then the first spill happens. Wine, coffee, the dog coming in from the backyard — and everything you invested starts working its way back. There's a better way. Introducing RugShield™ — Expert Rug Cleaning's exclusive professional fiber protection service. Professional-grade fluorochemical resin technology, applied after every wash, creating an invisible barrier that resists water, oil, and dry soil. Starting at $1.25 per square foot. Because a rug worth cleaning is worth protecting.

Some rugs walk through the door and stop everyone in the shop. This one did exactly that. A Persian Mashhad — 10x14 feet, deep indigo field, crimson central medallion, floral detail so dense it takes minutes to take it all in — arrived at Expert Rug Cleaning as a consignment piece. Decades of life lived on it. Colors buried under years of accumulated grime. Beautiful beneath all of it, but buried. We washed it back to life using our professional Persian rug cleaning process — flat hand washing, thorough rinsing, controlled drying — and the colors that emerged were extraordinary. Here's what the process looked like, why Persian rugs require a specialist, and where this piece is now.

Sheepskin rugs are one of those pieces people fall completely in love with — and then have absolutely no idea how to clean. Soft, warm, and naturally beautiful, they bring something into a home that almost nothing else does. But they are also one of the most technically demanding textiles to clean correctly. A sheepskin rug is not a pile rug, not a flatweave, not a synthetic — it is a natural hide with live wool attached. Two completely different materials, each with its own requirements, each capable of being damaged in its own specific way. At Expert Rug Cleaning in Boulder, we are expanding our specialist services to include sheepskin rugs — here's what the process involves, why home cleaning so often goes wrong, and how we do it right.
