Our Rug Cleaning Services

Carpet Cleaning Group offers a complete range of rug cleaning solutions for Chicago homes and businesses. Every rug is unique, and we tailor our approach based on the material, construction, age, and condition of your rug.

Area Rug Cleaning

Eco-friendly rug cleaning solutions safe for children and pets

Area rugs add warmth and character to any room, but they also trap dirt, dust mites, and allergens deep within their fibers. Our area rug cleaning service uses hot water extraction (steam cleaning) to flush out contaminants without leaving behind sticky residues. We clean area rugs of all sizes and materials, including wool, cotton, synthetic, and blended fibers. We also offer free pickup and delivery across Chicago, so you don’t have to worry about transporting your rugs.

Oriental Rug Cleaning

Hand-knotted and antique oriental rugs demand specialized care. Harsh chemicals and aggressive scrubbing can damage delicate wool and silk fibers, cause color bleeding, or weaken the rug’s foundation. Our technicians are trained in the proper handling and cleaning of Persian, Turkish, Afghan, and other fine oriental rugs. We assess dye stability, fiber type, and overall condition before selecting the safest and most effective cleaning method. Learn more about ou

Steam Carpet Cleaning

As recommended by most carpet manufacturers, steam carpet cleaning (hot water extraction) is the gold standard for deep-cleaning wall-to-wall carpets. Unlike dry cleaning methods that rely on harsh chemicals, steam cleaning uses high-temperature water and eco-friendly solutions to break down dirt and stains at the fiber level. The result is a deeper, longer-lasting clean that actually extends the life of your carpet.

Pet Stain & Odor Removal

Pet stain removal on wool area rug - before and after professional treatment

Pet accidents leave behind more than visible stains. Urine crystals can penetrate deep into rug fibers and padding, creating persistent odors that household cleaners only mask. Our  pet odor removal treatment uses commercial-grade enzyme solutions that break down urine at the molecular level, eliminating both the stain and the odor at the source. This service is available as an add-on for any rug or carpet cleaning.

Additional Rug & Carpet Services

Our professional carpet installation includes precise measuring, seamless seaming, and expert stretching to ensure your new carpet lays flat and wears evenly. We install wall-to-wall carpeting for bedrooms, living rooms, basements, and staircases throughout Chicago homes. Once your carpet is in place, protect your investment with our steam carpet cleaning and fabric protection services.

How Our Rug Cleaning Process Works

Our rug cleaning process is designed to deliver a thorough, safe clean every time:

Step 1: Inspection – We examine your rug for fiber type, dye stability, stains, wear, and any areas of concern. This allows us to choose the best cleaning method for your specific rug.

Step 2: Pre-Treatment – We pre-spray targeted areas with eco-friendly solutions to break down embedded dirt, stains, and odors before the main cleaning begins.

Step 3: Deep Cleaning – Using hot water extraction (steam cleaning), we flush out dirt, bacteria, and allergens from deep within the fibers. For delicate rugs, we use gentler methods tailored to the material.

Step 4: Stain & Odor Treatment – Stubborn stains and pet odors receive specialized enzyme treatment to eliminate them at the source.

Step 5: Grooming & Drying – We groom the rug fibers for a uniform appearance and ensure proper drying to prevent mildew or shrinkage.

Step 6: Final Inspection – Before we return your rug, we do a thorough quality check to make sure it meets our standards and your expectations.

Benefits of Professional Rug Cleaning

Extends rug lifespan: Professional cleaning removes abrasive dirt particles that wear down fibers over time. Regular professional cleanings can double the life of your rugs and carpets.

Improves indoor air quality: Rugs trap dust, pollen, pet dander, and other allergens. Steam cleaning extracts these contaminants, creating a healthier home environment — especially important for households with allergy sufferers or young children.

Eliminates bacteria and odors: Hot water extraction kills bacteria and removes odors that household vacuuming simply can’t reach.

Restores appearance: Professional cleaning revives colors, restores softness, and removes the dull, matted look that accumulates over time.

Saves money long-term: By maintaining your rugs properly, you avoid premature replacement. A quality oriental or area rug is a significant investment — professional cleaning protects that investment.
