About Christopher's Area Rug Cleaning and Repair Service

It’s easy to assume your rug is clean if it doesn’t look dirty. The reality? Dust, allergens, and grime settle deep into rug fibers long before they’re visible. Regular cleaning isn’t only about aesthetics—it’s about keeping your home healthier and extending the life of your rugs.

At Christopher’s, we specialize in expert area rug repair and cleaning in the greater metro Washington, DC area, including the Virginia and Maryland suburbs. We have developed several unique rug cleaning methods over our 40 year history, tailoring our process to the rug fabric, weave, and condition.

Our Seamless Pickup, Clean, and Delivery Process

We know how busy life gets, so we made rug cleaning as easy and convenient as possible. Here’s how it works:

  1. Free Pickup – Our team picks up your rug right from your home or office.  Our professionals take pictures, move most furniture and take notes to ensure that the rug will be laid down and the room restored to its original design.
  2. Thorough Cleaning – Your fine area rugs and orientals will undergo several spotting and cleaning processes, tailored to the specific stains and soils to be removed.
  3. Expert Repairs – If your rug has fraying edges, loose threads, holes or worn spots, our skilled technicians and experts offer repair and restoration services of the highest quality.
  4. Delivery and Lay-Down Service – Once your rug is restored, our team will return to lay down your rug again for you. We can also offer several rug pad options should you want to consider replacing your current pads for safety and comfort, as well as extend the life of your rugs.  

We typically complete the cleaning process in 2-3 weeks—longer for repair work—but we can expedite our process based on your needs and the work to be performed. 

We Provide Interim Area Rug Cleaning and Complete Restorative Solutions

Just like with carpet cleaning, Christopher’s recommends following an interim cleaning routine in lieu of the more common practice of restorative cleaning because less aggressive techniques can be used with interim cleaning, thereby prolonging the life of your fine area rugs and orientals. Interim cleaning would normally be performed once a year, unless you have a highly trafficked area in which case more frequent cleanings would be recommended.

Complete restorative rug cleaning solutions are also offered when rugs have not been cleaned for several years. This may require a deeper or more aggressive cleaning process, but our professionals have many years of experience so as not to damage the fibers in any way, even when a restorative rug cleaning are required.

And we always recommend fabric protection at the end of the cleaning process to help repel stains from setting in.
