Wool carpet cleaning

Wool carpets are warm and soft, but the fiber surface has a scale structure. If exposed to high temperatures, strong alkalis, or excessive rubbing, it is easy for them to shrink, frizz, or deform.

We will check the backing glue, tassels, and dyeing situation first, treat with a gentle cleaning agent, and control water usage while extracting and recovering.

Cleaning process

  1. Vacuum and fluff

    First vacuum dry dust and debris on the carpet, and brush/loosen carpet fibers.

  2. Stain detection

    Check the stain location and condition to identify the areas requiring spot treatment.

  3. Local gentle brushing

    Use neutral carpet cleaner, combined with a soft brush to treat stain spots, adjust intensity according to material.

  4. Spray extraction cleaning

    Use Kärcher spray-extraction cleaning machines to clean carpets suitable for wet cleaning, while extracting sewage at the same time.

  5. Backing cleaning (extra charge if needed)

    If you need to clean the back, confirm the arrangement and additional fees first, then flip the carpet to repeat the cleaning steps; it is not included in every service.

  6. Extract sewage

    Use wet/dry vacuum cleaner to suck up sewage and excess water; drying time is still required after cleaning.

View deep cleaning solutions

Wool and silk carpets have other deep-cleaning solutions. Color fastness must be tested and the material must be confirmed to be suitable for wet cleaning before assessing whether to adopt it; not all natural fiber or rayon carpets are suitable. Backside cleaning is an optional item that is charged separately.

  1. Colorfastness test

    Perform a spot test first to check color fastness and handling risks.

  2. Set cleaning position

    Arrange a suitable workspace for deep cleaning.

  3. Vacuum and fluff

    Vacuum and brush out carpet fibers first.

  4. Stain detection

    Check spots that need local treatment.

  5. Scrub with neutral cleaning agent

    Use a soft brush to treat stained areas.

  6. Rinsing with water

    Only clean carpets and tassels with clear water if materials and test results are suitable for this method.

  7. Backing cleaning (extra charge if needed)

    Handling the back is an optional item, subject to additional fees; please state the need for back handling when booking.

  8. Extract sewage

    Use a wet/dry vacuum to suck up sewage.

  9. Dry

    Let the carpet dry fully; do not roll up for storage or put back for use before it is completely dry.

Precautions

  • Do not treat wool with hot water or bleach yourself
  • Some old dyes have fading risks, technician will test first
  • Tassels turning yellow may not be a stain, possibly natural fiber aging
  • Carpet back cleaning is an optional item, requires separate fees; please state the need for back handling when booking.
