Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
A 9x12 rug measures 108 square feet. Using the typical U.S. rate of $3 to $7 per square foot, the cleaning cost would range from $324 (108 x $3) to $756 (108 x $7).
The primary factors include the rug's material (e.g., wool, silk, synthetic), its age (antique vs. non-antique), the extent and complexity of the damage (e.g., small hole vs. reweaving a large section), and the specific cleaning or restoration methods required. Geographic location also plays a role.
Carpet binding typically starts as low as $2.00 per linear foot around the edge of the completed rug. The total cost will depend on the perimeter of the rug.
Basic services, typically costing $1.50–$4 per square foot, usually include fundamental cleaning for wool or cotton rugs, or minor repairs such as patching small holes and reinforcing simple edges.
A job would be considered premium, ranging from $6–$10 per square foot, when it involves cleaning synthetic, silk, or antique rugs, or requires extensive repairs like reweaving damaged areas, intricate color restoration, or addressing significant structural issues.
