Rug Cleaning London | Wool, Persian & Silk Rugs Cleaners
Professional rug cleaning for wool, Persian, oriental, silk and synthetic rugs across London. Fully insured, safe for children and pets, backed by our 24-hour satisfaction guarantee.
Your rug is not the same as your carpet, and it should not be cleaned like one. Different fibres, backings, dyes and constructions each need a different approach, and the wrong method is how rugs end up shrunk, faded or left with dyes that have bled into one another.
Pro Carpet Cleaning London has cleaned rugs for homes and businesses across the capital since 2016. Every rug is inspected and treated on its own terms, from hard-wearing synthetic runners to delicate wool and hand-knotted pieces, so it comes back fresh, bright and safe to walk on.
Rug Types We Clean in London
Every rug is assessed for fibre, dye stability and construction before we choose a method. We regularly clean:
Wool rugs
Natural wool needs gentle, low-moisture handling to avoid shrinkage and colour loss. We clean wool safely for a soft, revived finish.
Silk and viscose rugs
Delicate, dye-sensitive fibres that can be damaged by standard carpet cleaning. These are handled with the caution they need, or assessed for specialist cleaning where appropriate.
Persian and oriental rugs
Hand-knotted and traditional rugs are cleaned with careful, fibre-appropriate methods that protect their dyes, patterns and value.
Synthetic rugs
Polypropylene, nylon and polyester rugs are hard-wearing and respond well to a thorough deep clean.
Shaggy and high-pile rugs
Deep pile that traps dirt and dust needs proper agitation and extraction to clean right down to the base.
Handmade, antique and modern rugs
Whatever the age or origin, each piece is treated individually, never with a one-size-fits-all machine pass.
Why London Rugs Need Professional Cleaning
Rugs in London work harder than most. In flats and period homes they act as a filter for the whole room, trapping traffic dust, air pollution, pet dander and fine grit that drifts in from the street and settles deep in the pile.
Regular vacuuming only lifts what sits near the surface. The abrasive soil packed down at the base of the fibres is what dulls colour, flattens pile and wears a rug out years before its time. Professional cleaning reaches that layer, removing the dirt, allergens and bacteria a vacuum leaves behind.
The result is not just a rug that looks cleaner. It is better air quality in your home, fewer trapped allergens for children and pets, and a rug that lasts significantly longer.
Our Rug Cleaning Process
In-Home Rug Cleaning Across London
For most wool and synthetic rugs, we clean in your home. We set up, clean and finish on-site, protecting your floor underneath, so there is no waiting and nothing to arrange. Ideal for area rugs, runners and everyday rugs that need a proper deep clean.
Collection & Return for Delicate Rugs
Some rugs are best cleaned away from the home. Silk, antique, hand-knotted and heavily soiled pieces often need specialist attention that cannot be given on-site. Where that is the case, we can collect your rug, clean it properly and return it to you fresh, dry and wrapped. Just send us a few photos and we will advise the best option.
Rug Stain and Odour Removal
Spills, pet accidents, mud and everyday marks all respond differently to treatment, and the wrong product can set a stain for good. We identify what we are dealing with first, then treat it with the right solution. One important tip: do not scrub a fresh stain or reach for a supermarket cleaner. Rubbing pushes the stain deeper and household products can react with the fibres or dye. Blot gently, then call us and let us assess it properly.

Why Choose Us for Your Rugs Cleaning
🧶 We Treat Rugs as Rugs, Not Carpets
Every rug is assessed for fibre, dye stability and construction before we choose a method. No one-size machine pass, because what cleans a synthetic runner safely can ruin a wool or silk piece.

Everyday wool and synthetic rugs are cleaned in your home. Delicate, antique and heavily soiled pieces can be collected, cleaned properly and returned to you fresh, dry and wrapped.
💧 Fibre-Safe on Delicate Rugs
Wool, silk and viscose are dye-sensitive and easily damaged by standard cleaning. We handle them with the gentle, low-moisture care they need to protect the pile and the colours.
