"Hello [Member Name Removed], Would you please double check that we were the company who did your repair? Blatchford's San Diego Rug Cleaning on Silverton Avenue. We do not allow anyone to pay until they look at the rug, are happy, and then payment happens. This way we know everyone leaves happy. I searched every [Member Name Removed] in our database, and every [Member Information Removed] entry in our database, and nothing pulls up as a repair in August, so I cannot find this order. Please do double check your records, and you can contact me directly at 858.566.3833 and we can arrange to re-do any repair if needed. Our weavers always stand behind their work, and it is very unusual for us to not catch things here in the office because we communicate directly with everyone especially regarding repairs since they can be so complicated. Thank you! Lisa"
I found them on Angies List and went to their website and liked what I found.
I brought in one 4.5'x10' Heriz oriental carpet to be cleaned and two others (4x5 Turkish and 7x9 Russian) for assessment for possible repairs. The Turkish one was starting to loose its fringe on the end and was also starting to unravel. The Russian had some ripples in the carpet and did not lay flat. The owner met me and looked at my rugs, assessed their condition. One needed some repairs and she discussed options, and made recommendations to address the damaged fringe and unraveling problem. For the other she recommended just cleaning it and flat drying. She said that the ripples were caused by the lack of even tension during the weaving process and were intrinsic to this particular Russian carpet and although it would probably improve with washing and flat drying, it would not be eliminated.
She also gave me a tour of the facility and showed me how they clean and repair the carpets. I was very impressed.
I decided to leave all three carpets and will pick them up in about 7 days. they have a large roller press to help get the water out of the carpets before drying.
The cleaning and repairs were excellent,
I also ended up purchasing their special pads which are especially for wood and tile flooring. They are expensive but terrific; I feel like I am walking on a thick pile, so luxurious. After trying these for two weeks, I went back and ordered the same pad for the rest of my carpets.
I can't say enough about the staff and the one-on-one care you get there. I can highly recommend them for cleaning, repairing and advice in general about rugs. It is a family business with three generations working at the store.
They will even pick up your rug for a small charge, however I just rolled them up and took them down there.
