Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
The cost of cleaning an Oriental rug is typically calculated per square foot. Multiply the rug's length by its width to determine the total square footage, then multiply that by your per-square-foot rate, which can range from $0.66–$8 depending on the rug's material, condition, and the cleaning tier chosen.
Factors that increase cleaning costs include delicate materials like silk or handmade constructions, the presence of severe or specific stains (like pet urine), the need for specialized enzymatic cleaning, and the rug's overall size. These elements require more time, expertise, and specialized products.
For an 8x10 Oriental rug (80 sq ft), the typical cleaning cost can range from approximately $240 to $640, based on an average rate of $3–$8 per square foot. The specific price will depend on the rug's material, condition, and the cleaning service tier selected.
For contractors, it's often worth cleaning an old Oriental rug, especially if it's a valuable, handmade, or cherished piece. The cost of cleaning ($3–$8 per sq ft) is typically much less than replacing a high-quality Oriental rug. Cleaning can restore its appearance and extend its life, making it a good investment for clients.
A basic cleaning for a less delicate or general area rug typically costs between $0.66–$3 per square foot. This tier is suitable for rugs that require standard cleaning without specialized treatments for delicate materials or severe staining.
