Rug Cleaning, Rug Cleaners, and Rug Repair Los Angeles


Los Angeles Rug Cleaning Seeks To Help Customers

Los Angeles, California – June 12, 2009 – The desire to expand consumer knowledge regarding the care of the rugs in their home and the importance of their cleanliness is the focus of California-based Los Angeles Rug Cleaning. Headed by industry expert, Dr. Khosrow Sobhe (Dr. Kay), the company’s website provides a wealth of information regarding how to properly care for rugs, kilims, tapestries, Oriental carpets, and more. The site is an essential resource for rug owners who care about the investment of their rugs and serves to provide education regarding the importance of rug cleanliness as it can significantly impact the health of those who live in the home.

According to Dr. Sobhe, “When it comes to oriental carpet cleaning, we should have two major concerns: 1- Our health and 2- The life of our rug, which can be extended by professional rug cleaning. We breathe what we walk on; dirt, dust, sand, and etc are stored in the pile of the carpet/rug and when we walk on them they are released and thrown in the air and we breathe them in our lungs. Therefore, cleaner rugs help us have a more sanitary room and healthier environment.”

Damage from water, staining, and pet accidents are common occurrences and the site advises that it is important to take immediate action to maintain the quality and hygiene of a rug in any of these situations. Because many people do not know how to properly care for the rugs in their home and failing to keep the textiles in tip-top shape can affect more than their looks – it can also adversely affect the health of anyone living in the home. Different rugs need different care and Dr. Sobhe’s company makes it their mission to help extend the life of rugs or restore them to their original brilliance after time, wear, or accidents.

Because Oriental, Persian carpets and area rugs require cleaning methods that may vary from those used for wall to wall carpeting, a specialist is a requirement. Consumers need to be aware of the difference between a carpet cleaning generalist and a rug cleaning specialist so that they obtain the services of a skilled professional who can perform the appropriate cleaning, repair, or restoration. The Los Angeles Rug Cleaning Company site details the difference between carpeting, which is installed wall-to-wall, and rugs, which are constructed differently and can be moved or transported. Too often consumers mistakenly search for “carpet cleaners” when what they really need and want is a “rug cleaner” who knows how to care for specialty rugs.

Dr. Sobhe is dedicated to raising awareness on the importance of carpet cleanliness for health reasons and offering carpet care information as a service to his customers through is informative website, www.losangelesrugcleaning.com.

Certified Rug Specialist Class in Dallas, Texas Day 6, Final Day












Today is the day 6 and the last day of our Certified Rug Specialist course. We are supposed to be in the class at 9:00 am to take the test which has two parts, the written part comprising 50 questions from the 400-pages book and from the topics covered in the class. Then there is a Rug-ID part in which we should identify 50 marked rugs. The passing grade for each part is 80 out of 100 which is equal to B!

If someone passes the written test let's say he gets 85 but do not pass the Rug-ID part and gets 75, he fails the class. The score of two parts are separately taken into account and do not combine.

All 8 of us will return to our home towns later this afternoon. We have people from all over the country. Two from Los Angeles (me and James), one from Monetrey , North California (Barry), one from New Jersey (Orlando), one from Philadelphia (Kevin), one from New York (Jim), one from Arizona Rick), and a lady from Alabama (Shellia). I am the only rug dealer in the class. The rest are rug cleaners and one of them is a rug cleaner as well as a dealer.

We will have 10 months to submit a rug project which should deal with one aspect of rug industry. We should chose the topic and the committee should approve the topic. After this project is done and approved, we receive our certificate and become Certified Rug Specialist.

A Busy Friday With Rug Cleaning & Sales in Los Angeles


On Friday September 24, 08, we were unexpectedly busy with selling different rugs to different customers. Few clients who had left their rugs for cleaning and repair showed up and picked up their Oriental carpets. Early in the morning, we also picked up an antique Persian Heriz carpet and a very old and antique Isfahan rug for cleaning and repairing the selvages.

My son Ashkan worked the whole day on our new Oriental Carpet Cleaners web site and its pictures and text. This new site is a rug cleaners and rug repair web site to serve our customers in greater Los Angeles.
