An area rug should be assessed as its own textile, not simply as a small carpet. Fiber, dyes, backing, fringe and construction all matter when you request rug cleaning from Riptide Cleaning.
Service guide
Include dimensions, fiber information, a care label and whether it is hand-knotted, tufted or machine-made if known. A description such as “Oriental” does not identify every material or cleaning requirement. Mention fragile fringe, curled edges and previous dye transfer.
Point out stains, odors and areas of heavy use. Wear, moth damage, faded dyes and damaged backing require different expectations from removable soil. If pet accidents are involved, include both the rug and pad in the discussion rather than treating the visible mark as the whole problem.
Ask how the rug will be handled and where the work would take place. Pickup, off-site washing and specialty restoration should not be assumed. Discuss the floor underneath, furniture resting on the rug, drying arrangements and when the rug can be returned to use.
