7/26/2014 (Permalink)
One of our team members "dusting" a rug with our "RugBadger Pro". The results are amazing. We have removed pounds(literally) of soil from rugs.
There are many reasons to have your oriental or area rug cleaned regularly. The most common is general cleaning including soil and stain removal.
There are many criteria when choosing a company to perform rug cleaning in Nashville. Reputation, cleaning methods, training, insurance, convenience, and pricing. We will address some of these briefly today:
- Reputation: Ensure the company you choose has a positive reputation in the cleaning industry. Ways to check this are the local BBB, online reviews, and even asking customers who have used them before. Check out SERVPRO of Belle Meade online and ask your neighbors about us!
- Cleaning Methods: Methods range from surface cleaning to full "rug bath" immersion. At SERVPRO of Belle Meade we use the most effective tools in the industry from the "RugBadger" for dusting your rug to full immersion in a rug bath if your rug meets the criteria for that method
- Training: Ensure the company you select has proper industry training to care for your rug. At SERVPRO of Belle Meade we have trained at an IICRC(industry standard) School in the RCT(Rug Cleaning Technician) course as well as with local industry leaders in cleaning techniques.
- Insurance: Ensure the company you choose has proper insurance to cover (1)the company in your home (2)your rug in transport and (3)your rug in their cleaning location. SERVPRO of Belle Meade carries all proper insurances for cleaning rugs of any value from area rugs to heirloom oriental.
- Convenience: Ask prospective companies about their process start-to-finish. Our process includes a complimentary evaluation in your home, pickup, storage(long term if desired), and delivery by licensed, insured, and trained technicians.
- Pricing: Giving an accurate price is challenging without properly evaluating a rug. Ask prospective companies how they determine pricing. At SERVPRO of Belle Meade, again, we offer a complimentary evaluation in your home where pricing can be established. Many factors go into proper pricing such as rug fiber type, size, age, soils/stains, appraised value, and more.
