Price it yourselfSaltillo and flagstone floors are everywhere in Cave Creek, and a hard floor that size almost always has a rug or two on it. A Navajo-style flatweave in the entry, a big wool piece under the dining table, a runner down the hall to the casita: those rugs are the only soft surface in the room, so they hold the dust.
The main area rug cleaning page covers our full method and every city we work in.

Not sure whether yours is wool? Price it both ways. We confirm the fiber on site before any product goes down, and the lower figure applies if it turns out to be synthetic.
Wall-to-wall carpet is almost always one synthetic fiber locked to a stable backing, so a single process fits nearly every room. Rugs vary from one to the next, and a carpet routine run on the wrong one can leave browning, bled dye, or shrinkage that no second cleaning reverses.
You are paying for the sorting and the slower, fiber-specific work that follows: $1.70 a square foot online for synthetic and $2.98 for wool.
Rugs we have washed in homes around the Valley.
A few hours is typical. We still quote a 24-hour window, since a thick wool pile on a cotton backing gives up moisture slower than a thin synthetic, and we would rather you be pleasantly surprised. Moving air does most of the work: crack a window, turn on a ceiling fan, and switch the thermostat fan from AUTO to ON. Our commercial air movers, Dri-Pod 360s and a low-profile Syclone, can also run on the rug while we are there. Just ask.
Wool, synthetic, cotton, and blends. Shag, plush, and flatweave. Sisal and jute, silk blends, hide rugs, and machine-made pieces. Southwest and Navajo-style flatweaves fall in here too, and their bold dyes are exactly why we test colors first. Wool is priced apart from synthetic because it takes a different cleaner and a lighter hand.
Every rug is cleaned in your home, on the floor it already sits on, and you do not have to move it first. That holds for wool, oriental, Persian, and hand-knotted rugs. The only rug we decline is one containing viscose, which also gets sold as art silk or bamboo silk. Wet viscose loses its strength and the distortion is permanent.
The usual result is a rug that looks like the one you brought home. We only call a mark permanent after we have actually worked on it. Some marks are not soil at all: dye that has faded or bled, sun bleaching near a west-facing slider, browning left by an earlier over-wet cleaning, or urine that has already soaked into the foundation. We sort those out with you before starting.
Most synthetics hold their shape and their color, which is why they handle an in-home wash so easily. Wool soaks up water, can shrink, and does not like a high pH cleaner. Hand-knotted rugs with a cotton foundation can brown or wick dye upward when they get too wet, so we keep moisture low and make sure they dry properly.
Our sanitizer is Decon 30, a botanical, EPA-registered disinfectant. Instead of a pump sprayer we put it out through a fogger, so it falls as a fine mist over the rug and through the room and treats both without soaking anything.
Plenty of Cave Creek garages and storage rooms hold a rug that got rolled up after a bad day. The dog had an accident, a monsoon leak got under it, or it started to smell. Then it sat. Unroll it and call us. A rug that has been stored is not automatically finished, and we will tell you straight whether it can come back before you spend anything.
Urine does not stay on top. It runs through the pile into the foundation and often into the floor below. A surface pass handles the top and leaves the source, which is why the smell returns on the first humid day. Clearing it takes full saturation and flushing, which is routine for us. On a wood floor, we roll the rug up and do it in your garage or out on the patio, so the floor underneath stays dry. Just mention it when you book.
Out here a lot of driveways are gravel or dirt, horses and dogs share the property, and the lot usually backs onto a wash or open desert. The dust from all of that lands on hard floors and gets swept away, except where a rug is lying. There it works down to the base of the pile, where a vacuum cannot reach it and the fibers start to wear against it.
Sun is the other factor. Homes built for views of Black Mountain and the Continental Mountains have big glass, and the rug in the path of that light fades faster if it is also carrying grit. Cleaning does not undo fading, but it stops the abrasion that makes a rug look tired years early.
Because Cave Creek is a longer drive for us, rugs usually ride along with carpet, upholstery, or tile on one visit. High-end and wool rugs are cleaned in place that same day.
We know your rug's fiber before a drop of water touches it.

Synthetic rugs are $1.70 a square foot online ($2 regular). Wool is $2.98 online ($3.50 regular). Cave Creek visits have a $750 minimum, which most people reach by adding a second service.
Length times width, in feet. An 8x10 is 80 square feet and a 9x12 is 108. Enter each rug in the box above and it does the math for both synthetic and wool.
Usually, yes. Those rugs often use strong reds and blacks, so we test the dyes in a hidden spot before cleaning the whole piece.
Deodorizer is about smell. It neutralizes odor and leaves a light floral scent. Sanitizing treats the surface with the hospital-grade disinfectant described above. Many people choose both.
Late summer or early fall works well, after monsoon storms have dropped most of their dust. Any season is fine, though, and the dry air helps rugs dry fast year round.
On most hand-made rugs the fringe is the end of the foundation itself, not something sewn on, so it gets careful handling. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Yes. Add it to the same quote and it is cleaned on the same visit at the same rate.
