Shag Rug Cleaning Service

Shag rugs are known for their luxurious, deep-pile texture and soft, plush feel—but that beauty comes with specific cleaning challenges. Their long fibers trap dust, pet hair, and allergens much more easily than low-pile rugs, making proper maintenance essential to preserve both appearance and indoor air quality.

How We Clean Your Shag Rugs

  1. At Brooklyn Rug Cleaning, we treat shag rugs with the utmost care using a specialized cleaning process designed to protect their thick, high-pile fibers:
  2. A gentle shake or vacuum (suction-only) to remove loose dirt and debris.
  3. Pre-treatment to loosen deeply embedded particles.
  4. Deep cleaning using eco-friendly, non-toxic solutions that lift out stains, odors, and allergens.
  5. Careful rinsing and drying to avoid matting or damaging the fibers.
  6. Final inspection and fluffing to restore the rug’s plush texture.
