Can you use a rug shampoo on an oriental rug?

• <div><p>You can use rug shampoo on an oriental rug, but you need to make sure you use a natural, non-abrasive shampoo. While other carpets made from synthetic fiber can stand up to harsh chemicals, the natural material—sheep’s wool, cotton, silk, or camel hair—that goes into an oriental rug will break down and get damaged if they come in contact with traditional rug shampoos. In many cases, it’s best to let a professional assess your carpet and determine which gentle shampoo would be most appropriate.</p></div>

Can I put a silk rug in the washing machine?

• <div><p>We don’t recommend you put your silk rug in the washing machine. Silk is extremely delicate; stuffing it in the washer won’t do it any good. Additionally, the hot water can harm your rug. If you have stubborn stains you can’t get out, the safest bet is to call a pro.</p></div>

What kind of soap can I use in a carpet shampooer?

• <div><p>When using a carpet shampooer, following the manufacturer’s instructions when choosing a cleaning solution is best, especially if you’re renting a shampooer. </p></div>

Q: How do different elements influence the pricing for floor cleaning services?

• <div><p>Costs depend on floor type, area size, and additional services like waxing or sealing.</p></div>

Q: Will vinegar clean upholstery?

• <div><p>Vinegar is acidic and makes a great cleaning agent for many items throughout the house, including some upholstery. It should not be used for any upholstery with the code S or X. It can be used for W labels. To use a vinegar solution, mix equal parts water and vinegar and blot the stain using a gentle circular motion with a clean microfibre cloth and then allow to dry completely. As with any DIY solution, test a small and inconspicuous section first.</p></div>

They repaired my chimney and the exterior of fireplace, inside of the house. They did an excellent job, and cleaned up after. He did come a second time and did one more repair, which was not part of the contract, and didn't charge me. Very professional and friendly.
