Protect Your Rugs During Chicago Winters
Chicago winters are tough on rugs. Road salt, snow, slush, and wet shoes can cause real damage if you don't act fast. Salt leaves white marks and breaks down rug fibers over time. Moisture can lead to mold and mildew deep inside the rug.
Put mats at every door to catch salt and water before it reaches your rugs. Vacuum often during winter to pick up dry salt and dirt before they settle in. If salt or slush gets on your rug, blot it right away with a clean, damp cloth. Don't rub — that can spread the stain and harm the fibers.
When to Get a Professional Winter Cleaning
We suggest getting your rugs cleaned by a pro at least once a year. Winter is a great time for it. After months of salt, dirt, and extra foot traffic from holiday guests, a deep clean makes a big difference. Pro cleaning removes deep dirt that home vacuums can't reach.
We offer free pickup and delivery, so it's easy even in the cold. Our five-step process is great at fixing winter damage. We also offer odor removal for rugs that smell musty from moisture. Contact us at (224) 395-3525 for a free quote. Read more on our blog.
