Keep your luxury rugs looking newer, longer. Our specialized cleaning process removes deep-set soil while helping protect fibers from stains, odors, and daily wear.
Photograph and tag each rug before conducting a thorough inspection to identify your rug’s origin, materials, and condition.
Using color-stabilized hand-cleaning or specialized equipment tailored to each type of fiber and dye, we remove dust, soil, and pet stains and odors that standard cleaners miss.
The rug is put in our water-extraction centrifuge, brushed in the natural fiber direction, then laid flat or hung up in our climate-controlled environment to prevent shrinking and warping of fibers.
We conduct a thorough post-cleaning inspection to ensure desired results and to provide a detailed custom care proposal that outlines additional service recommendations.
The rug is carefully vacuum-packed by our experienced team to protect it during transportation to and from our world-class cleaning facility.
Some textiles are too valuable, emotionally and financially, to trust to anything less than expert care. At Costikyan, we’ve specialized in professional rug cleaning services for heritage rugs, delicate textiles and contemporary designer pieces for over 135 years.
We tailor our approach to each rug’s origin, material, and more. Each piece receives the specific care expected by discerning homeowners, designers, architects, and collectors.
Our artisans employ century-old handwashing methods with modern knowledge: submerging rugs in monitored water baths to loosen fibers, hand-scrubbing to release embedded dirt, and gentle rinsing until properly cleaned. This labor-intensive approach protects sensitive materials where automated methods pose unnecessary risk.

We specialize in structural repair for antique, Persian, Oriental, and silk rugs, including reweaving, fringe reconstruction, edge stabilization, and color correction. Whether your rug needs minor binding repair or comprehensive restoration, our specialists use both time-honored and modern techniques suited to each rug’s age, fiber, and construction.
We provide secure pickup and delivery for rug restorations throughout NYC and the I-95 Northeast Corridor (NJ, CT, VA, MA, PA, RI). All restoration work is performed at our facility using conservation-standard techniques and climate-controlled handling. We coordinate transport, keep you updated throughout the process, and safely return your rug once complete.
Restoration costs depend on the rug’s size, materials, and the extent of damage. We provide a detailed assessment and custom proposal before any work begins, so you understand exactly what’s needed and why. Contact us to schedule a consultation and get an estimate.
Timelines vary based on the complexity of repairs—minor edge or fringe work may take a couple of weeks, while extensive reweaving or antique rug restoration can take several months. We provide a timeline estimate during your initial assessment and keep you informed as work progresses.
