It took longer than expected to finish the work, and I had some difficulty at the door because the work is performed in rooms attached to living quarters. Again, I didn't mind since I wouldn't take my good rugs anywhere else.
When rugs were returned 6 weeks after dropping them off, one had not been repaired. When I left messages about my dissatisfaction with the major increase in cost and my repair issues, no return calls were received. My husband finally called to say he needed a quote, and that call was returned quickly, however.
In the end, I took one rug back and a few stitches were put in to repair it...not what I had in mind. Rugs looked good from a cleaning perspective. Repairs, not satisfactory at all.
Pros: They do know about oriental rugs. Cleaning is good.
Cons: Make sure you know exactly what you are getting done for repairs, how it will look, what it will cost. Get it in writing.
Don't expect quick service. It was 6 weeks before rugs were returned.
If you are not satisfied, don't expect them to call you promptly, or at all, to discuss problem or make it right easily. The payment check was cashed and my husband was told and quot;well, you're not getting any money backand quot; when he was just calling to find out what it was going to take to get them to call me back to discuss the problem.
Would not use them again.
"In Response To the member First we discussed what was to be done via e-mail (14 e-mails to be exact) so we could come to an understanding of what was to be done, and the most economic way of doing so. Then the member took advantage of our may special (Super Tuesday Special). If you bring your rug in and pick it up we were offering to clean any rug for $2 per square foot. She had a hand made in Pakistan 8x10 Bhohkara and another 8.5x12 rug made in India. With the special she saved $182.00. The Bhohkara needed to be evened out on both ends and a Belgian stitch across both ends to secure the work. Sixteen feet of repair at $35.00 per hour all done by hand. The other rug did not need to be repaired nor did we charge her for it! When the repair and cleaning were completed 2 1/2 weeks later we tried to contact the member, but she did not return the call for 2 weeks. She finally returned our call letting us know that she was out of town and would pick up the rugs when she returned. For the May special the customer is supposed to bring in and pick up their own rug, however, since the member was still out of town we kindly delivered the rugs to her house on June 18th 2012 free of charge. When we got there she had left her husband with a check for the cleaning cost only, then he kindly wrote us another check for the correct amount which included the repair she ordered. The cleaning on the 8x10 Bhohkara came to $160.00 and the repair for that rug (sixteen feet in total with fourteen hours of labor) came to $490.00. The cleaning on the other 8.5x12 rug made in India came to $204.00 for a total bill of $854.00. We only charged the member for the work that she ordered which was cleaning 2 rugs and repairing the Bhohkara. Later when the member finally returned home ,she brought in her 8.5x12 Indian rug to be inspected. At that time , while she waited in our shop, we then did a 1/2 hour of work on a small section of the selvage as a preventative measure and did not charge her at all for that work. We always give our customers great value. For cleaning and repair a rug can take up to 3 weeks, and for our full immersion ,triple rinse cleaning we have a 7-10 day turn-around. Sincerely, Oriental Rug Pros"
