Jute Rug Cleaning in NYC
Jute area rugs are excellent floor coverings for most rooms around the house, covered balconies, and porches. Given the natural woven fibers they are crafted with and their neutral colors, they make for excellent options for many household owners. Compared to other types of area rugs and carpets, jute rugs can, however, be more difficult to clean. Because of their coarse fabrics and sensible fibers prone to damage, shampooing and water immersion techniques are not recommended.

Our Jute Rug Cleaning Methodology
Since they are made of natural fibers extracted from jute plants, they are good choices for environmentally friendly households with an interest in lowering their carbon footprint. Cleaning and maintaining these rugs do not produce any pollution. Since they are also biodegradable, disposing of them at the end of their lifespan is also an eco-friendly process.
As mentioned earlier, using large amounts of water or moisture during steam cleaning is not a viable cleaning alternative for these types of area rugs. Our long expertise in the industry has allowed us to create a solid jute rug cleaning methodology.
Jute Rug Inspection
Our process starts with a detailed inspection of both sides of the rug. Most jute rugs are reversible, which means it is imperative to clean stains and deeply embedded dirt from the front and back of the rug for optimum effects.
At the end of the assessment, our jute rug cleaners in NYC will establish the degree of staining and damage and proceed to recommend the most efficient cleaning solutions with the lowest risk of damage possible.
Jute Rug Vacuuming
Any jute rug cleaning procedure begins with professional vacuuming on both sides. This helps remove deeply embedded debris and grinding dirt from the fibers. For best results and minimum damage, the beater bar is usually removed or turned off from the vacuum cleaner. This is because the friction caused by this bar can cause the fibers to be pulled up and damaged.
For best results, our experts use the low suction setting and move in all angles and directions to make sure all the dirt is sucked. Corners require more attention when vacuuming, as the suction movement could damage the binding. Our cleaners normally use the nozzle attachment here or a safer alternative such as a soft brush to thoroughly clean the rug’s edges.
Testing an Inconspicuous Surface
Prior to applying any type of jute rug cleaner, we always test the product beforehand using an inconspicuous area underneath the rug. We also closely follow the written instructions from the manufacturer or use our own know-how and experience in the area to determine which are the safest products to use.
Dry Cleaning for Jute Rugs
Our IICRC-certified jute cleaners in NYC know that drenching such a rug in water and soaking it will cause the fibers to get darker, possibly changing the entire appearance of the rug indefinitely.
Jute rugs should therefore not be installed in areas and rooms with high levels of humidity in the air, including uncovered outdoor porches, bathrooms, and kitchens. On the other hand, dining rooms, living rooms, and bedrooms are good locations for these rugs.
To deep clean a braided or woven jute rug, we normally rely on dry cleaning products and techniques. The list includes eco-friendly dry cleaning powder, a spray cleaner, or a dedicated fabric cleaner that is safe to use on these rugs as well as upholstery and sisal carpets.
Powder cleaners are sprinkled on the entire surface of the rug. With the help of stiff-bristled brushes, our technicians work the product into the fibers using gentle moves across the rug. The powder is then left on the rug for a specified length of time.
Spray carpet cleaners for jute carpets are directly sprayed onto the rug jute while closely following the guidelines and instructions provided by the manufacturer. Normally, these sprays should not be left on the rug for more than five minutes.
When spray cleaners are used, a blotting step follows with the help of a damp cloth. A wringing movement will help thoroughly remove any traces of the spray carpet cleaner.
