Rug Cleaning Ballarat

Rug cleaning in Ballarat needs a different approach to wall-to-wall carpet. Rugs vary widely in fibre type, construction and value, from everyday synthetic mats to high-value wool, Persian or antique pieces that need specialist handling. We assess each rug individually before cleaning to check fibre type and dye stability, one of the cleaning services we offer alongside carpet, upholstery and tile cleaning.

On-Site or Collection Cleaning

For most rugs, we clean on-site in your Ballarat home using methods suited to the construction. For delicate or high-value rugs, we can arrange pickup, clean off-site, and return the rug once it's dry. This keeps thicker, hand-knotted or antique rugs safe from the extra handling an on-site clean would involve.

Rug cleaning is priced separately from carpet cleaning, so you only pay for what you actually need. Whether it's a well-loved family rug or a fine wool Persian, we treat every piece with the same care and follow the fibre-care standards set out by the IICRC, the industry body for professional cleaning and restoration. Many customers book a rug clean alongside upholstery cleaning in the same visit.

A Note on Ballarat's Older Homes

A lot of Ballarat's older housing stock has timber floors, where a rug is often the only soft surface in the room. In damp winter months, rugs sitting on cold floorboards can hold moisture longer than carpet does, so a periodic proper clean helps stop musty smells setting in before they start.
