Troubleshooting
Rug slides on the floor
Ensure a non-slip rug grip is placed underneath the entire rug, especially on hard, smooth surfaces. This will improve stability and safety.
A specific stain is not coming out with spot cleaning
Repeat the spot cleaning process carefully, ensuring you use a suitable surface shampoo and blot, rather than rub, the stain. For persistent stains, consider consulting a professional rug cleaning service.
The rug pile appears flattened or matted in high-traffic areas
Gently fluff the affected areas with your fingers or a soft-bristle brush. Regular, gentle vacuuming can also help maintain the pile's loft.
