Rug washing in Tecamachalco

Tecamachalco, one step from Lomas

Lomas de Tecamachalco sits in the State of Mexico, yet for us it is part of the same western route. Its streets carry the names of fountains, such as Fuente de Pirámides, and run up and down around Avenida de las Fuentes between spacious homes on several levels, many with Persian rugs in the living room, dining room and study.

Many of these homes have interior stairs and sunken living rooms. Before pickup we ask where each piece is, whether furniture must be moved and whether the street has a gate or private access. That way we arrive with the right number of people and keep no one waiting. If the house has several pieces, we collect them in one visit and each one receives its own tracking code.

Rugs in daily use

In Tecamachalco, families live with their rugs. There are pieces in family rooms, children's bedrooms and dining rooms where many guests are received. That means food and coffee stains, pet marks and wear along the paths people walk every day.

In the diagnosis we identify each stain and tell you clearly which ones can be removed and which can only be softened. The piece is then deeply dusted, washed in an industrial automatic washer or by hand if it is silk, spun in a centrifuge and dried under controlled conditions.

Before an important date

If you are planning a family gathering or want the house ready before the autumn holidays, it is wise to book ahead, because September is a busy season in our workshop. To get a quote, send us two photos of the piece by WhatsApp, front and back, with the size and your street name.

Process

Our seven step process

  1. Step 1. Collection

    We collect your rug on the agreed date, in Polanco, Las Lomas, Interlomas and the west of the city, at no extra cost. We roll it with care, never folded, and give you its tracking code.

  2. Step 2. Diagnosis and photography

    On arrival at the workshop, the master inspects fiber, dyes, foundation, fringes and edges. We photograph front and back, record every detail and share the diagnosis with you before any work begins.

  3. Step 3. Deep dusting

    We remove the dust and grit that settle deep in the foundation and wear the fiber down with every footstep. It is the step most often skipped, and the one that most protects the life of a rug.

  4. Step 4. Washing

    Wool pieces go through our industrial automatic washer, with abundant water and neutral detergents. Silk and delicate pieces are washed by hand, by the master, with the time each one asks for.

  5. Step 5. Centrifuge and controlled drying

    The industrial centrifuge removes water evenly, without twisting or stretching the weave. The rug then dries laid flat in a controlled environment, to prevent odors, shrinkage and dye bleeding.

  6. Step 6. Restoration and the master's review

    If the diagnosis called for it and you approved it, the master repairs fringes, edges and weave with wool and technique true to the piece. Before leaving, every rug receives a final review, inch by inch.

  7. Step 7. Wrapped and sealed delivery

    We photograph the finished piece, roll it, wrap it and seal it. We deliver it to your home on the agreed date, ready to return to its place, with the photographic record of arrival and delivery.
