Why Trust Newcastle Rug Wash
Why Trust Newcastle Rug Wash With Your Rugs?
The actual reasons — not marketing slogans. Here's what a specialist rug care facility does differently.
Specialist Assessment
Every rug is assessed before treatment — construction, fibre, dye stability, condition, soiling, staining, contamination, fringe, backing and potential risks are all considered.

Rug Cleaning Before & After Results
Drag the slider to see the transformation. Every result is achieved through assessment, the right process and controlled care.

- Soil and grit removed; colours restored.
Results depend on fibre, dyes, stain composition, age, previous treatments and rug condition. We set honest expectations before we start.
Pet Urine & Odour
Pet Urine & Odour Treatment — More Than a Surface Clean
Urine seeps into the rug foundation, causing odour, bacteria and permanent damage if not treated correctly. Surface cleaning and DIY products often mask the smell temporarily — the contamination remains beneath.
Our immersion washing and specialist decontamination address the problem at the source. We'll be honest about what's achievable after inspection.
Commercial Rug Cleaning

Scheduled programs for offices, hotels, accommodation, retail, medical practices and more — keeping entrance, reception and feature rugs looking their best with minimal disruption.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight Answers From the Specialists
How much does rug cleaning cost?+
Pricing depends on the rug's size, fibre, construction, condition and the treatment it needs. Because every rug is assessed individually, we provide a tailored quote rather than a flat rate. Start with our quote wizard or send us a photo and we'll advise.
How long does rug cleaning take?+
Most rugs are completed within 5–7 working days, though heavily soiled or contaminated rugs requiring immersion washing and controlled drying may take longer. We'll give you a realistic timeframe with your quote.
Can you remove every stain?+
Not every stain can be completely removed — results depend on the fibre, dyes, stain composition, age, previous treatments and the rug's overall condition. We'll always give you an honest assessment of what's achievable before we start.
Can you remove pet urine?+
Urine that has seeped into the rug foundation requires deep immersion washing and specialist decontamination. We have significant experience treating pet urine and odour, and we'll be honest about expected outcomes after inspection.
Can all rugs be washed?+
Most rugs can be washed, but not all by the same method. Delicate or unstable dyes may require a gentler dry-cleaning approach, while heavily soiled rugs benefit from full immersion washing. We assess each rug and recommend the right process.
Do you clean wool rugs?+
Yes — wool is one of the most common fibres we treat. Our fibre-specific chemistry and controlled processes are designed for wool's natural characteristics.
