Daily Area Rug Care

Area rugs may require more maintenance than other types of flooring. Overall, though, not too much effort is required to keep your rug looking nice. By following our care guide, you can help to ensure that your rug ages well as the years pass.

Vacuuming your area rug regularly will help to guarantee that it ages well and looks pristine daily. Vacuuming is essential as it helps to remove dirt, dust, and other debris from the fibers of your rug. This debris can lead to premature aging and grunginess if left unattended. How often you vacuum your area rug will depend on the traffic that it receives. Most will have to vacuum once a week, at a minimum.

debris & spills

Vacuum up solid debris messes on your area rug immediately after they occur. If solid messes are left unattended, they can lead to permanent messes/stains.

Liquid messes on your area rug are a bit more nuanced. How you address each spill may vary, but generally speaking, the first step will always be to absorb as much liquid as possible with a clean cloth. From there, you should consult your manufacturer on approved cleaning solutions. It is always a best practice to address liquid accidents immediately after they occur.
