Specialist wool cleaning is rare in Oklahoma City — most local rug cleaning uses methods that strip lanolin from wool fiber permanently. OKC's dry climate also creates wool-specific concerns: dust accumulates more deeply in wool pile, and dry wool fiber is more susceptible to damage from aggressive handling. Our method addresses both: heavy hand-dusting to remove the embedded grit common in OKC pieces, then lanolin-preserving wash with neutral chemistry and cool-to-warm water.
Wool fibers contain natural lanolin — a protective oil that gives wool its soil resistance, water resistance, and characteristic feel. Standard alkaline carpet-cleaning chemistry strips lanolin permanently, dramatically shortening the rug's lifespan and dulling its appearance. Our wool method preserves lanolin: neutral or low-pH chemistry, cool-to-warm water (never hot), shortened wash cycles, controlled flat drying. The wool comes out cleaner than steam cleaning could ever achieve — and with its natural soil resistance fully intact.
Free pick-up across the Oklahoma City metropolitan area. Most rugs are returned within 7 days from pick-up. We provide a written estimate before any work begins.
Specialist methods for every wool variety.
Different wools have different lanolin content, fiber length, and cleaning sensitivities.
Hand-spun Persian & Turkish
Traditional handspun wool used in fine oriental rugs. High lanolin content, irregular fiber length, often natural dyes.
Tibetan highland wool
Exceptionally high lanolin and long staple length. Common in modern hand-knotted Tibetan and Nepalese rugs.
New Zealand wool
Standard for modern hand-tufted designer rugs (Pottery Barn, RH, West Elm). Fine and consistent.
Merino
Soft, fine, premium wool used in higher-end modern rugs. Lower lanolin than handspun, requires careful cleaning.
Hand-tufted designer wool
Modern wool pile bonded to a backing with latex adhesive. Wash must protect the latex from over-saturation.
Machine-made wool
Karastan, Couristan, and similar — robust construction, generally tolerates wool-specific cleaning very well.

Common questions about wool rug cleaning in Oklahoma City.
Where in OKC do you offer wool rug pick-up?
Free pick-up throughout the OKC metro: Oklahoma City, Edmond, Norman, Moore, Yukon, Mustang, Bethany, Nichols Hills, Midwest City, Choctaw, and surrounding communities.
Why does wool rug cleaning need specialized methods?
Wool fibers contain natural lanolin that gives wool its soil resistance and characteristic feel. Standard alkaline carpet chemistry strips lanolin permanently, shortening the rug's lifespan.
Is OKC's dry climate easier or harder on wool rugs?
Different. Dry climate is gentler on dyes than humid air, but it accumulates more embedded dust in wool pile. Our heavy hand-dusting step is especially important for OKC wool pieces.
Can wool rugs be steam-cleaned at home?
We strongly recommend against home steam cleaning on any wool area rug. Hot water damages the lanolin, can cause shrinkage in untreated wool, and frequently triggers color run in dyed wool.
Will cleaning shrink my wool rug?
Properly performed professional cleaning will not shrink a wool rug. Shrinkage happens when wool is exposed to hot water, aggressive agitation, or improper drying — all common in steam cleaning.
