Documented rug appraisal services are surprisingly hard to find in Oklahoma. Most rug shops will give you a casual price quote; very few will provide a USPAP-compliant written report that an insurance carrier, estate attorney, or court will accept. Fred Remmers Rug Cleaners has been valuing rugs since 1881, and we provide formal written appraisals to OKC clients regularly — for insurance scheduling, estate documentation, divorce, charitable donation, and pre-sale pricing.
Our written reports follow the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) and document each rug with photographs, dimensions, fiber and dye analysis, knot density, regional origin, age estimate, condition assessment, current market value, and full methodology. They are the kind of documentation that holds up under insurance review, IRS scrutiny, or courtroom challenge.
Free pick-up across the OKC metro — Oklahoma City, Edmond, Norman, Moore, Yukon, Mustang, Bethany, Nichols Hills, Midwest City, Choctaw, and surrounding communities. Most appraisals are returned within two to three weeks.
Written appraisals for OKC homes and estates.
Oklahoma City's finest rug collections tend to cluster in Nichols Hills, Heritage Hills, Gaillardia, and the established homes of Edmond — hand-knotted Persians and Caucasians, often passed down or acquired abroad. We provide written, signed appraisals for insurance scheduling, estate settlement, and resale, prepared to the standard insurers and probate courts expect.
Insurance agents and estate attorneys across Oklahoma, Cleveland, and Canadian counties send clients to our Bethany gallery for appraisals that hold up. Bring your rug to our Rockwell Avenue showroom, or ask about pick-up throughout the metro. Call (405) 972-3150 to arrange an appraisal.
