What stain protection actually does — and what it does not

A properly applied stain protector repels liquid long enough that you can blot the spill before it penetrates the pile. It does not make a rug stain-proof. It does not replace cleaning.

And it must be applied to a rug that is already clean and fully dry. We use a fibre-safe, pH-neutral treatment that is safe for natural dyes and lasts two to three years under normal household traffic.

Our stain protection process — step by step

  1. 01

    Post-cleaning preparation

    The rug must be fully clean and fully dry. Protector applied to soiled fibre bonds the dirt in permanently.

  2. 02

    Application

    Even coverage across the entire pile surface. Under-applying leaves unprotected patches; over-applying mats the pile.

  3. 03

    Setting

    24-hour cure time before the rug is returned. During cure, the rug stays flat in the workshop.

  4. 04

    Inspection

    Coverage verified under raking light — any missed areas receive a second pass.

  5. 05

    Documentation

    Treatment recorded against the rug’s file for future warranty reference.

Common questions

  • Is stain protection safe for wool and silk?

    Yes. We only apply treatments tested safe for natural fibres and natural dyes.

  • How long does stain protection last?

    Two to three years under normal household traffic. We recommend reapplication after each professional cleaning.

  • How much does stain protection cost?

    Starting at $65, priced by rug size. Usually added as a bundle with cleaning at a reduced rate.

  • Can I apply it myself?

    We strongly recommend professional application for even coverage and to avoid oversaturation, which mats the pile.
