Why should handmade Persian and Oriental rugs be cleaned by EXPERT ORIENTAL RUG CLEANING PROFESSIONALS?
1- Since most handmade Persian and Oriental rugs are traditionally knotted on looms in the artisans' homes without rigorous control of the dyes, it is possible that some of the colours of your rug may fade when they come into contact with water, causing irreversible damage to your rug. At KAMBYSES we do the necessary de-inking tests to find out what type of washing each carpet requires.
See example in the following video
2- All carpets, being on the floor and in contact with feet and shoes, accumulate a lot of dust and dirt that is not visible to the eye. If this dirt is not removed from inside the carpet before washing, in addition to hygiene and health problems, once the carpet has been cleaned, the dust accumulated inside solidifies, making it possible for your carpet to break. At KAMBYSES we use professional vibrating hoovers to remove, detach and extract the dirt accumulated inside the carpets before cleaning.

When a carpet is damaged by an incident, such as a flood caused by water, immediate action is crucial to prevent further damage.
In fact, all insurance companies hold owners responsible if they do not take urgent measures to minimise the damage by hiring professional experts. If you have insurance for your carpets, all these expenses to minimise damage will also be paid by your insurance.
In the case of handmade Persian and Oriental rugs, contact with water can cause the colours of the rug to peel off and transfer to other areas, resulting in more costly restorations. The first key to preventing colour transfer to the lighter areas of the carpet is to manage this situation with the right technique.
At Kambyses, we have the knowledge and specialised machinery to minimise damage when handling wet carpets. That's why we offer an express collection service, where our specialised team will arrange for the immediate removal of your carpet for professional cleaning and drying.

Handmade Persian and Oriental rugs are beautiful works of art of great economic value that require proper care to maintain their beauty, durability and economic value over time.
Tips for good carpet maintenance:
1. Vacuuming: Vacuuming is essential to remove dust and dirt from carpets, although in order not to damage the fringes, it is advisable not to vacuum over the fringes.
2. Cleaning spilled liquids of any kind on the carpet: Use table or bathroom paper napkins to absorb the maximum amount of liquid possible, without rubbing the stain so as not to spread the problem.
3. Professional cleaning: When you think your rug needs cleaning, go to a professional carpet cleaner and restorer for Persian and Oriental rugs.
4. Avoid using harsh chemicals: Do not use aggressive chemicals bleaches, bleach or commercial cleaners, as they can damage the fibres and colours of your rug, including fading.
5. Proper storage for humidity and insects such as moths: Roll up your carpet with several good-smelling mothballs inside and seal it tightly with plastic. It is very important to seal the roll tightly so that moths cannot get inside the roll from the outside and the moth mothball vapour cannot escape to the outside, losing its ability to keep moths away.
Remember that the care of Persian rugs may vary according to the type of fibre and design. It is always advisable to consult a Persian rug professional for specific care and cleaning guidelines if in doubt.
