Our Area Rug Cleaning Service
Dirty area rugs look dingy, trap bad smells and allergens, and deteriorate faster. Regular area rug cleaning will protect your investment and keep your home looking, smelling, and feeling fresh.
At Green T Services, our rug experts perform high-quality professional area rug cleaning with two steps. First, we start with Rugbadger technology, and then, follow up with hot water extraction. These eco-friendly, non-toxic methods are gentle on rugs while being tough on stains and dirt.
What Kinds of Area Rugs Can We Clean?
Woven Area Rugs
Woven rugs are delicate with weaves and fringes that can be damaged by machines like vacuum cleaners and traditional rug washers.
Using the RugBadger, we have specific protocols for cleaning woven rugs that ensure no damage or shrinking occurs with this delicate material.
Synthetic Area Rugs
Synthetic rugs are made from materials that tend to pill and fuzz if not appropriately maintained. Green T cleans rayon, nylon, polyester, and blended synthetic rugs.
Exotic Rugs
Exotic rugs are very luxurious and thus often contain highly pigmented dyes. Rugs like these need to be cleaned very carefully, in order to not ruin the rug. Green T uses methods that are gentle and safe for even the most colorful and luxurious area rugs.

What is RugBadger Technology, and Why is it Better?
RugBadger technology is industry-leading for cleaning methods. In fact, Badger, which stands for Bug, Allergen, Dirt & Grit Extractor for Rug renovating, is specially made for area rug cleaning.
The treatment is specialized, so different techniques are used for different kinds of rugs, depending on manufacturer and material. The machine is safe for all types of rugs, including hand-woven and synthetic rugs. It uses 40,000 vibrations per minute to completely separate heavy debris and dirt from the rug, while being gentle enough for even the most delicate rugs.
What is Hot Water Extraction?
This environmentally friendly method uses water heated to around 250 degrees Fahrenheit to steam the carpet. Our machines get hotter than most other cleaners, which is essential as any temperature less than 213 degrees won’t be hot enough to clean and sanitize carpets.
The water’s hot temperature helps lift stains and dislodge debris while sanitizing the surface as it cleans.

Benefits of Area Rug Cleaning Service
Compared to a carpet, rugs are easy to overlook. Because they can be rolled up and moved, they may seem like they are lower maintenance. However, area rugs still need the same level of care as carpets. Here’s why:
Appearance
When an area rug starts to look a bit dingy, it may be difficult to notice. Because homeowners see the rug every day, they may not notice the progression as dirt and dust collect in the fibers. Routine cleaning will keep customers’ rugs fresh without waiting for them to look especially dirty.
Make an Area Rug Last Longer
Area rugs can be costly! Depending on factors such as size, material, and maker of an area rug, it can be very pricey. Don’t let area rugs deteriorate quickly due to dirt and debris. By keeping up deep cleaning, area rugs will look good and last for years to come.
Clean Deeper
Vacuuming and beating a rug are good ways to keep it clean. But, this is a lot of work, and it won’t leave rugs 100% clean. Because fibers trap dirt and debris deep down, and spills can create stains, proper rug maintenance can be tricky. Therefore, clean deeper with a professional service.
