Depending on your rug, you’re gonna have different cleaning needs. Your rug might be expensive and fragile.

Our rug cleaning techs are professionals, through and through.
Normal Riky Rug Cleaning
When it comes to cleaning rugs, there are two main methods that we make use of – steam cleaning and dry cleaning. Both of these methods work for different circumstances, and they’re both very thorough ways to get the grime out of rugs. You can pick which one will work best for you.
Most rugs can handle the more vigorous steam cleaning, but some need a gentler dry cleaning to stay clean. Several others need a more specialized cleaning than either of those, but odds are your rug will do fine with either of these cleaning methods.
Steam Rug Cleaning
The process of steam cleaning uses a combination of hot water, water pressure, and some chemicals to get the filth out of your rug. It’s a very effective way to clean a rug, as it is able to get deep into the corners of the fibres and extract anything that could be lurking in there. And our Riky Carpet Cleaning technicians are experts at it.
Steam cleaning’s strengths come from the fact that it doesn’t use very many chemicals and is able to clean more thoroughly than any other cleaning method out there. Its weaknesses lie in the fact that it has a fairly long drying time and can be rough on more fragile carpets.
Dry Rug Cleaning
The process of dry cleaning involves brushing in chemicals that are able to react with the grime in your carpet and cleaning it out by dissolving whatever you have lurking in there. The dry cleaning chemicals and dissolved soils can then be simply vacuumed up, and your rug should be good. Our rug cleaning pros can expertly use this method to clean your rug.
Dry cleaning’s strengths come from the fact that it’s easier on fragile rugs and has much faster dry times than steam cleaning. Its weaknesses lie in the fact that it’s not as effective as steam cleaning and uses way more chemicals.
Delicate Rug Cleaning
There are some rugs out there that are far too fragile for either steam cleaning or dry cleaning. These need to be looked at by a rug specialist in special rug cleaning facilities.
These rugs are assessed for how best to clean them without causing damage, and various cleaning methods are carefully applied. Rest assured, your rug will be looked after and taken care of by professionals.
