DFW antique rug collections are often among the most valuable we handle. Highland Park and University Park heritage homes contain pieces dating to the 1880s and earlier; the older Preston Hollow estates hold significant antique collections; and the documented family pieces in DFW's longest-established homes routinely include museum-quality antiques. These pieces value in the five and six figures, and the cost of cleaning damage is enormous. Conservative methods, documented before-and-after photography, and recognized expertise are the standard for any DFW antique work.
Antique rugs — typically 80 years and older — require fundamentally conservative cleaning methods. Aggressive chemistry strips natural dyes, hot water damages weakened foundations, and excessive agitation breaks aged fibers. Our antique approach is the most cautious we offer: cool water, low-pH chemistry, dye testing on every color, and documented before-and-after photography for each piece. The goal is to remove soil without compromising the rug's antique character or structural integrity.
Free pick-up across the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. Most rugs are returned within 7 days from pick-up. We provide a written estimate before any work begins.
Conservative methods for every antique tradition.
Antique cleaning differs by weaving tradition. Each requires its own conservative approach.
Antique Persian
Tabriz, Kashan, Isfahan, Heriz, Qom — antique pieces 80+ years old often have weakened foundations and fugitive natural dyes.
Antique Turkish
Hereke, Ushak, Konya — robust construction but antique dyes (madder reds, indigo blues) can be fugitive.
Antique Caucasian
Kazak, Shirvan, Kuba, Karabagh — bold geometric pieces often with vegetable dyes that need careful handling.
Antique Indian
Mughal Agra, antique Jaipur — fine handspun wool, often natural dyes, require conservative immersion methods.
Antique Chinese
Antique Peking and Ningxia — silk highlights are common, requiring silk-specific cleaning approach.
Antique American
Hand-hooked, hand-braided pieces from the 19th and early 20th centuries. Surface cleaning methods preserve original character.

Common questions about antique rug cleaning in Dallas.
Where in DFW do you offer antique rug pick-up?
Free pick-up throughout the entire DFW metroplex — Dallas, Plano, Frisco, Allen, McKinney, Highland Park, University Park, Richardson, Carrollton, Lewisville, Fort Worth, Arlington, Southlake, and surrounding cities.
What counts as an antique rug?
Most experts use 80 to 100 years as the boundary for 'antique.' Pieces 50–80 years old are typically called 'semi-antique,' and pieces 100+ years are sometimes called 'museum-quality.'
Do you handle museum-quality antique pieces?
Yes. We clean DFW antique pieces valued in the high five-figures and into the six figures, with documented before-and-after photography for each project. For any high-value antique, we recommend pairing cleaning with current appraisal documentation.
Will cleaning damage my antique rug?
Properly performed conservative cleaning will not damage an antique rug. Damage scenarios — color run, fiber loss, foundation cracking — happen when antiques are cleaned with methods designed for newer pieces.
Do you provide before-and-after documentation?
Yes — standard for all antique cleaning. We document the rug before work begins, photograph any pre-existing damage, and photograph again after delivery.
Available across five metros.
