Rug cleaning
in Orinda.

Orinda is a young city on old ground. It did not incorporate until 1 July 1985, yet the Moraga Adobe at 24 Adobe Lane has been on the National Register since 16 March 1972, and the Buehler House on Great Oak Circle is a Frank Lloyd Wright Usonian design finished in 1949 and listed in 2006. Between those two markers sits the housing we actually work in: custom homes on wooded hillside lots, most of them raised while the population climbed from 5,568 in 1960 to 16,825 in 1980. Those lots are why Orinda’s work differs from the drier towns east of the ridge. The city takes about 30.53 inches of rain a year and July highs sit near 82°F, so a north-facing house under oak and bay can stay damp long after the last storm. Wool that never dries fully turns musty, jute foundations swell and then shrink, and a rug left on a cool floor in a shaded room picks up a smell its owner stops noticing. We check moisture before anything else, wash cold across twelve steps, and dry flat under controlled air instead of returning a rug half-dry. Collection covers Sleepy Hollow, Glorietta, Orinda Village and the hill roads above them. Steep, narrow driveways are the norm; we send two people whenever the rug is large.

Reach us on (650) 675-8160, by phone or text, on any day between 8am and 8pm. The collection window is fixed before the van leaves Newark and confirmed with you shortly afterwards, so nobody has to wait on a published route. Our own driver handles the pickup, the wash and the return, with no courier in between. Expect the rug back in seven to ten days, longer only when a repair or a full dye check is involved.
