An initial answer to this question could well be to say that you need rug cleaning services in New York City area whenever your rug, or rugs, get dirty and you do not wish to clean them yourself. However, this would be somewhat simplistic and does not really give the full story.
What Is A Rug?
If we ignore the joke meaning relating to a toupee or wig; the dictionary only tells us that a rug is a small carpet and begs the question of how big must it be to earn the title of carpet? The more anglicized definitions do give a guide to size when they refer to a rug as a blanket –particularly one that you could that you put over your lap and legs to keep them warm.
However, in terms of rugs that are placed upon the floor; the word “rug” can often be viewed as synonymous with the word “carpet”. There is also an element of “snob” appeal in use of these words; when the floor covering in question costs a lot of money and is possibly antique and certainly produced by traditional methods in some Eastern (Oriental) country we tend to refer to it as an oriental rug (unless it is a flying carpet from the Arabian Nights !).
Whatever You Call Them, Floor Coverings Will Get Dirty
Those who cover their floors with a solid layer such as stone or ceramic tiles can easily sweep and wash them to keep them perfectly clean. But, once you put a textile type of covering of any sort down on the floor, cleaning the floor becomes more complicated.
Everyday Rug Or Carpet Cleaning
To slow down the effects of the dust, dirt and other solid particles that land on or are trodden in to your rugs and carpets; regular domestic vacuum cleaning is recommended. If you are not inclined to do this for yourself, you can always contract the work out to some sort of professional cleaning service or hire a permanent house helper.
Special Cleaning
However, when it comes to the really deep down dirt trapped in the rug’s fibers plus the accumulated stains from spills (or pet “accidents”); domestic vacuum cleaners do not really do the job and stronger cleaning action is required. This usually calls for some sort of washing or chemical cleaning – both of which can have harmful effects on any type or size of rug. To ensure that your rug does not get damaged; during such “deep” cleaning; you should avail yourself of the skills provided by the Rug Cleaning Services In New York City.
