Your wool, silk, or Oriental rug is trapping pounds of dust, allergens, and pet urine deep in its foundation — and your vacuum isn’t touching it. Worse, in-home steam cleaning can activate those contaminants and push them deeper, leaving your rug dirtier than before. That’s why so many homeowners trust Reno Carpet Care for professional rug cleaning in Reno. We pick up your rug, take it to our facility for a full immersion wash that flushes contaminants from both sides of the fiber, and deliver it back fresh, dry, and restored — guaranteed.

Different fibers require different pH levels and washing techniques. We identify your rug before we clean.
High-value wool rugs need cold water immersion and dye stabilizers to prevent bleeding colors.
Extremely delicate fibers. We use specialized low-moisture techniques to maintain the sheen and texture.
Deep pile rugs trap pounds of dirt. Our tumbling duster removes debris that vacuums can't reach.
We don't just mask odors. We submerge the rug to flush out crystallized urine salts from the foundation.
The Spa Treatment
Cleaning a wool rug inside your home is like taking a shower with your clothes on. To truly clean a rug, you must wash it from both sides.
The "Badger" Dusting
Before wetting, we vibrate the back of the rug to shake out pounds of dry soil that vacuums miss.
Full Submersion Wash
We submerge the rug in a "wash pit" with gentle flowing water, ensuring 100% of the fibers are rinsed clean.
Controlled Drying
We dry rugs flat or hanging in a temperature-controlled room to prevent shrinkage and browning.
When pets pee on rugs, the urine dries into crystals deep in the cotton foundation. Steam cleaning activates the smell but doesn’t remove it.
Most rug cleaning services in Reno run a machine over the surface and call it done. At Reno Carpet Care, we treat every rug as the investment it is, following a meticulous 6-step process that cleans from the foundation up, not just the top down.
We come to your Reno home, move your furniture, roll the rug, and carry it out so you don’t have to lift a finger. Before any cleaning begins, we inspect every inch of your rug, noting the fiber type, dye stability, wear areas, stains, and odor sources. This inspection dictates exactly how we treat it. No two rugs receive the same process.
Before any water touches your rug, we vibrate the back of it to release the dry soil compacted into the foundation over months or years. A single rug can shed pounds of dust at this stage alone, dust that your vacuum never reached. Skipping this step and going straight to washing simply turns that dry soil into mud, making the job harder and the result worse.
03
This is the step that separates professional rug cleaning in Reno from anything an in-home machine can deliver. We submerge your rug completely in our wash pit, flushing pH-balanced water and cleaning agents through every fiber, from the surface pile all the way through the foundation and out the back. It is the only method that genuinely removes deep-set allergens, bacteria, and crystallized urine salts.
04
Fringe is the most overlooked part of any rug clean. We scrub every tassel by hand using specialized cotton brighteners rather than harsh bleaches that weaken the fiber over time. Grey, dingy fringe comes back crisp and bright without any structural damage.
05
Every rug is dried flat or hanging in our temperature-controlled facility. This prevents the two most common damage points from improper drying: shrinkage and browning. Your rug is never returned to you damp.
06
Once your rug passes our final inspection, we deliver it back to your Reno home, place it in position, and move your furniture back into place. From pick-up to delivery, you do not lift a finger.
Prices are per square foot.

Guaranteed Odor Removal
The Difference is in the Details
We don’t just “clean” rugs; we restore them. Here is why our off-site facility delivers results that in-home cleaners simply cannot match.
In-home cleaners only clean the top 20% of fibers. Our wash pit flushes contaminants from the front and back, removing years of impacted dust.
Red dyes in Persian rugs are notorious for running. We use specialized acidic rinses and dye-locking agents to keep colors crisp and vibrant.
We scrub fringes by hand to remove grey soil lines without using harsh bleaches that can rot the cotton foundation strings over time.
Don't break your back rolling up a heavy 9x12 rug. Our uniformed technicians will move your furniture, roll the rug, and take it away for you.
Who We are
Select a service below to see how we can help your Reno home or business.
Experience the deepest clean possible for your textiles. Our immersion wash process flushes out trapped dust, dirt, and allergens from the backing that regular vacuums miss, restoring the vibrant colors and soft texture of your rugs without damaging the weave.
Accidents happen, but they don’t have to stay forever. We use specialized enzymatic treatments to break down pet urine crystals and eliminate tough odors at the source. This ensures your rugs are not just visually clean, but hygienically sanitized for your home.
Fine materials require an expert touch. We use pH-balanced solutions specifically designed for wool, silk, and natural fibers. Our gentle process prevents dye bleeding and shrinkage while delivering a thorough clean that preserves the integrity of your heirloom pieces.
Don’t let dingy fringe detract from your rug’s beauty. We hand-detail every inch of the fringe, carefully removing soil and discoloration. Our meticulous process restores that crisp, bright edge that frames your rug perfectly, making it look new again.
Extend the life of your clean rug with our premium fiber protection. This invisible barrier repels liquid spills and blocks dry soil from settling deep into the fibers, giving you time to blot up accidents and keeping your rug cleaner for longer.
Wool and natural fiber rugs are prime targets for damaging insects. We apply a specialized moth deterrent that makes the fibers unappealing to pests. This preventative treatment protects your investment from larvae damage without leaving harsh chemical odors or residues behind.

“I was terrified to hand over my grandmother’s antique Persian rug because the dyes are so sensitive. They explained their immersion process clearly and put me at ease. The rug came back looking vibrant, and the wool feels so soft again. True professionals.”

“I thought I was going to have to throw out our living room rug after our dog kept marking the same spot. I tried cleaning it myself, but the smell wouldn’t go. These guys took it away, treated it, and it honestly has zero scent now. Worth every penny.”
Amanda S.

“The rug in our entry was looking dingy and the white fringe had turned completely grey from foot traffic. I didn’t realize how dirty it actually was until they brought it back. The fringe is sparkling white again and the colors really pop. It lights up the whole room.”
We can steam clean synthetic rugs in-home, but for Wool or Oriental rugs, in-home cleaning is risky. It can trap moisture causing dry rot, damage hardwood floors, and fails to remove the deep dust impacted in the foundation. Our off-site immersion process is the only way to safely flush out 100% of the soil and urine.
Our standard turnaround time is 5 to 7 business days. This allows ample time for dusting, washing, fringe detailing, and proper controlled drying. If you have a specific deadline (like a party or event), please let us know, and we will try to accommodate a rush service.
Yes, guaranteed. While steam cleaning often makes urine smells worse (by activating the crystals), our full immersion wash pit allows us to soak the rug in enzymes that digest the urine salts completely. We flush fresh water through the rug until the water runs clear and odorless.
Yes! For most customers in Reno and Sparks with a minimum order size (typically $150), pick-up and delivery are complimentary. We do the heavy lifting—moving furniture and rolling the rug for you. A small fuel surcharge may apply for outlying areas like Truckee or Carson City.
Yes. Fringe detailing is included in our premium wash. We scrub the cotton tassels by hand to remove the grey soil line. We avoid harsh bleaches that can rot the fiber; instead, we use specialized cotton brighteners to restore the natural white look safely.
We test every rug for dye stability before touching it with water. If we detect unstable dyes (common in older Persian rugs), we use a dye-locking agent and cold water processing to freeze the colors in place, ensuring the reds don’t bleed into the white areas.
We highly recommend it. A quality pad protects your hard floor from scratches, prevents the rug from slipping (a safety hazard), and allows the rug to “breathe,” which prevents dust from grinding into the backing. We can cut a custom-sized pad for you upon delivery.
