An expensive handmade carpet isn’t just décor—it’s an heirloom, a luxury, a design centerpiece. But what happens when your dog’s muddy paws, a surprise coffee spill, or your toddler’s crayon art strikes your precious rug?

At Ramsha Home, we know the pain. And more importantly—we know how to prevent it.

So here’s your step-by-step Ramsha guide to keeping your expensive handmade carpet as flawless as the day you unrolled it.

🧼 Rugs Aren’t Invincible—But They Can Be Close (With TLC)

Even the finest weaves can fray if neglected. Whether it’s a bold shag rug in the lounge or a quiet vintage runner in the hallway, your expensive handmade carpet needs more than admiration—it needs intentional care.

Here’s how:

Use a rug pad to protect from slipping and friction
Rotate the rug every 3–6 months to avoid uneven wear and sun damage
Place protective pads under furniture to prevent crushing the pile

This TLC will help your carpet age gracefully—rather than prematurely.

🌀 Vacuum Like a Collector, Not a Cleaner

Aggressive vacuuming is one of the quickest ways to ruin an expensive handmade carpet. Harsh bristles and roller brushes can eat through the delicate hand-knotted weave.

Do this instead:

Use suction-only vacuums with no rotating brush
Vacuum once weekly for low-traffic rooms; 2x for high-traffic areas
Avoid vacuuming the fringes entirely
Flip oval rugs and hallway carpets every few months

Remember: Gentle maintenance = lasting luxury.

💧 Spills Happen—Blot, Don’t Rub

Spilled red wine? A rogue coffee splash? The instinct to scrub is strong—but resist it.

Here’s the golden rule of expensive handmade carpet stain care:

Blot with a soft, white cloth from the outside in
Never rub; it pushes the stain deeper into the fibers
Skip DIY stain-removal recipes (lemon and vinegar are not your friends)
Use a mild, rug-safe cleaner or call a pro

If you own a white fur rug or a kids’ room carpet, consider keeping a ready-to-go cleaning kit nearby—or let Ramsha take care of it.

☀️ Keep It in the Shade

Direct sunlight may feel warm and cozy—but it’s brutal on dyes and natural fibers.

Your expensive handmade carpet deserves protection from UV aging.

How to protect it:

Keep rugs away from long periods of direct sunlight
Use sheer curtains to diffuse strong rays
Rotate your rug to balance out any unavoidable sun exposure

UV damage doesn’t just fade colors—it weakens the foundation.

🚿 Don’t Soak, Ever

A common mistake? Treating a carpet like a towel. Your expensive handmade carpet should never be saturated with water.

Avoid full wet cleaning or steam cleaning unless done by a pro
Spot clean gently and dry immediately
Schedule professional dry cleaning once a year

Rugs made from wool, jute, cotton, and silk are sensitive to water retention, which causes mold, fiber breakdown, and permanent warping.
