About our rug cleaning
We focus on careful cleaning methods that remove dirt, dust and common stains without stressing fibers or dyes. Each rug is inspected, tested for colorfastness and assigned the appropriate cleaning method — whether that means a gentle wet wash for natural fibers, a controlled low-moisture process for delicate pieces, or hand-spot cleaning for specific stains.
Our process begins with a full assessment of fiber content, construction and soiling. When necessary, fringes are carefully separated and treated. We use equipment designed for rugs rather than wall-to-wall carpets. The result is a cleaner rug, reduced allergen load, and longer life for the piece.
- Detailed inspection and pre-treatment of spots and stains
- Colorfastness tests to prevent dye bleed
- Cleaning methods selected for fiber and construction
- Final grooming and drying protocols to stabilize the rug
Types of rugs we service
Our technicians have experience with Persian and Oriental rugs, hand-knotted wool, cotton flatweaves, viscose and modern synthetics. We accept area rugs of various sizes and can advise on whether an in-home cleaning or shop pickup is most appropriate.
Pickup and delivery
Pickup and delivery options are available for customers in Plymouth and nearby towns. Rugs are transported with care to our cleaning facility, processed, and returned within the agreed timeframe. We provide clear cost estimates before collection.
Stain and odor removal
Stubborn stains from food, pet accidents and household spills are treated with targeted, fiber-safe chemistry. Odor sources are identified and addressed to prevent lingering smells after cleaning.
Preservation and repair referrals
While we focus on cleaning, we also identify rugs that may benefit from repair or stabilization. When necessary, we coordinate with trusted repair specialists for fringe repair, reweaving or patching.
What to expect during service
After you request service, we schedule an inspection or pickup. Each rug receives a documented intake note listing condition, measurements and any pre-existing damage. Our technicians document the cleaning steps, which helps maintain a service history for valuable rugs.
Rugs cleaned in-shop undergo the following steps: dry soil removal, pre-treatment, hand or machine washing using water temperature and detergents matched to the fiber, rinsing to remove detergents, careful drying on racks to prevent mildew, and final grooming. Rugs cleaned on-site receive a controlled, low-moisture cleaning that minimizes disruption and drying time.
Pricing and estimates
Costs depend on size, material and the level of soiling. We offer written estimates based on measurements and inspection findings. Where pickup is requested, estimates include the pickup and delivery fee. For a quick overview of our service and to request a quote, visit: https://devlincarpetcleaning.com/

Care tips for owners
To preserve rugs between professional cleanings:
- Vacuum with a suction-only setting or use a brushless vacuum for delicate fibers.
- Rotate rugs periodically to even out wear from foot traffic and sunlight exposure.
- Address spills promptly — blot with a clean cloth and avoid rubbing to prevent damage.
- Avoid placing rugs in consistently damp areas to reduce risk of mildew.
