Carpet & Area Rug Cleaning in Montclair & Essex County, NJ

Essex County is where we see the best rugs on our schedule — wool orientals in Montclair dining rooms, runners on old staircases, flat-weaves over original hardwood. Fine rugs get fiber-appropriate care: correct temperature, correct solution, gentle grooming. Wall-to-wall carpet gets the full heated extraction it needs.

Older homes bring older-home realities — decades of foot traffic, radiator dust, the occasional mystery stain from a previous owner. We're honest about what will come out, price by the room and the rug, and put the total in writing before we start.

How it works

Our process

  1. Step 1

    Walk the room

    We map traffic lanes, spots and any pre-existing damage with you.

  2. Step 2

    Deep vacuum

    Dry soil comes out first — it is most of what makes carpet look grey.

  3. Step 3

    Pre-spray & dwell

    An emulsifier breaks the bond between soil and fiber.

  4. Step 4

    Extract

    Heated water and high vacuum rinse the carpet clean and pull the moisture out.

  5. Step 5

    Dry & finish

    We groom the pile and place air movers so the carpet dries fast and flat.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is hot-water extraction safe for a wool oriental?

Yes, done correctly — we adjust heat and solution for wool and always test dyes first. Delicate pieces get the gentlest effective method.

Can you clean stairs with a runner?

Yes, $11 per step, woodwork protected throughout.

What won't come out?

Dye transfer, bleach spots and sun fading are permanent. We point those out before starting so there are no surprises.

"Great communication, prompt service, detail oriented and did I mention, nice people. They made a 25 year old upholstered chair, sectional couch and area rug look brand new, and thoroughly cleaned three dusty mattresses."
