Persian & Oriental Rug Restoration

Persian & Oriental Rug Restoration is a specialist service offered by Ace Carpet Cleaners Ltd, aimed at reviving damaged or worn handmade rugs through expert repair, washing, and conservation. These rugs — often hand-knotted, antique, or made from fine wool or silk — require highly skilled care due to their intricate construction and sensitive natural fibres.

Restoration may become necessary due to:

• Moth damage, including bald patches and base thread destruction
• Frayed fringes or edges, especially from foot traffic or hoovering
• Colour bleeding from incorrect cleaning agents
• Staining, whether from spills, pet accidents, or long-term soiling
• Pile compression and dirt embedded deep into the foundation

At Ace Carpet Cleaners Ltd, we perform full rug assessments to identify fibre type, knot density, and region of origin. Each rug is then treated with a bespoke care plan. Services may include:

• Hand-washing using pH-balanced wool-safe shampoo
• Colour correction or stain lifting without risking dye run
• Reweaving or re-knotting to repair bald areas or breaks
• Fringe repair or replacement using traditional techniques
• Insecticidal treatment to eliminate moth larvae and prevent reinfestation
• Protective sealing to guard against future damage

Persian and Oriental rugs are more than floor coverings — they are investments and heirlooms. Our restoration services preserve their beauty, structure, and long-term value.

We work with private collectors, homeowners, estate managers, interior designers, and museums, offering a secure collection-and-return service across London, Kent, Surrey, and beyond.
