Safe, Trusted, Fiber-Safe Rug Cleaning for Pet Accidents
You love your pets, but you also love your fine rugs. You can run into problems when your pets, who don’t understand just how valuable your rugs are, have accidents. Fortunately, there’s a trusted company that offers pet accident rug cleaning in Orem, UT. Keep reading to learn more about why Aegis Fine Rug Cleaning is the go-to choice for pet owners.
Protecting Fine Rugs From Pet Damage
Protecting your rugs from pet stains requires speed and skill. While we can remove deep, set-in stains, it’s much easier and safer for your rug to get the pet stains out as soon as possible. If left untreated, pet urine can not only leave your fine rug smelling bad, but it can even damage the delicate fibers that make it up.
Depending on the type of rug you have, you may have high-end dyes that can react poorly when they come in contact with animal urine. This is why it’s important to check your rugs often for any signs of pet urine, and when you notice something, call in the team at Aegis Fine Rug Cleaning as soon as possible.
Hand-Washed Rug Cleaning for Pet Soiling
One of the most important parts of our pet odor removal services is that we don’t use any type of machinery. Since fine rugs, including Persian, wool, and Oriental, are produced differently, they’re not meant to be exposed to excess moisture or high temperatures. That’s why all of our pet pee rug cleaning services revolve around hand-washing the rug. Additionally, we have a proven method of drying your rug that protects its structural integrity and its colors.
When you choose Aegis Fine Rug Cleaning, you’re choosing the man behind the brand. Tim Petzold, our owner and founder, puts his hands on every rug that comes through our doors. He uses
a process that has been finely tuned over more than 40 years in business to make sure that your rugs come back to you looking like they did on the day you bought them.
The Dangers of Using Harsh Chemicals
Rug cleaning for delicate textiles doesn’t involve the use of harsh chemicals. While you may be able to use carpet shampoo with all its chemicals on area rugs and other carpets, you need to avoid putting those harsh substances on your fine rugs. Aegis understands what works and what doesn’t when it comes to fine rugs, so you never have to worry about us using chemical-laden products on your rugs.
Harsh chemicals can create several issues for your fine rugs, including:
- Damaged fibers: Chemicals like ammonia and bleach have high pH levels that can damage delicate fibers like those used in Oriental and Persian rugs. This causes the fibers to weaken, lose their texture, and potentially come apart.
- Discoloration: Fine rugs also utilize special dyes that make each rug unique. Unlike mass-produced rugs that you can get at a big-box store, fine rugs have special colors that create bold, ornate colors and designs. Harsh chemicals can damage the dyed fibers, resulting in the colors bleeding into one another or fading out completely.
- Odors: When you schedule pet urine rug cleaning, the goal is to eliminate unpleasant odors. Unfortunately, the use of harsh chemicals can result in strong chemical odors staying in your rugs. Since fine rugs can’t go through machine drying, it’s easier for harsh chemicals to cling to the fibers, resulting in persistent odors.
Odor Neutralization for Wool and Silk Rugs
Not only do we want to care for your rug’s appearance, but we also want to ensure that it comes back smelling like new. Dog pee on rugs has the potential to leave behind long-term odors that can quickly spread through the rest of your home. That’s why we’ll use a proven method of neutralizing odors while getting the stain out to preserve your rug’s appearance. Our odor neutralization process includes the following:
- Identify the source: Pet urine in one area can make the entire rug smell bad. We’ll make sure that we’re focusing our stain-removal efforts on the exact spot where the stain is.
- Apply the solution: Once we pinpoint the exact location of the stain, we’ll get to work by applying a solution that’s perfectly safe for your fine rug.
- Hand-clean the stain: With the solution on the pet stain, we’ll begin hand-cleaning the area to remove it without damaging your rug. The goal is to avoid making the rug too moist as water retention can wreak havoc on fine rugs.
- Safe drying: With the stain removed and the unpleasant odor eliminated, we’ll carefully dry the rug without the use of high-heat machines that can damage the fibers.
Long-Term Care for Heirloom and Luxury Rugs
Your fine rugs are more than just decorative pieces; they’re a significant investment in the look and feel of your home. With that in mind, we understand that you want to make them last for as long as possible.
While getting rid of pet stains as quickly as possible is a great way to do that, it’s also important to schedule regular rug cleaning. By letting a professional take care of your rugs periodically, you can keep them looking great for years to come.
