AREA RUG STAIN REMOVAL

No matter how careful you are or how much you stick to your care and maintenance routine, your area rug will still likely experience the occasional spill or mess, especially if you have kids or pets. Fortunately, many of our rugs feature stain-resistant fibers, making cleaning common household stains a cinch! 

Your first instinct when it comes to common spills like juice, soda, wine, or pet accidents is to immediately start cleaning up the mess. However, we recommend that you first establish whether it’s an oil-based or a water-based stain. Since some messes will wipe away with a cleaning cloth and others will require comprehensive stain removal directions, it’s best to consult your manufacturer's stain removal guide to see how best to tackle each particular mess. You can also access our general stain guide below.
