A rug-only facility with the infrastructure your finest pieces demand
Glencoe is one of the North Shore’s most distinguished communities — home to the Chicago Botanic Garden, Glencoe Beach, and Writer’s Theatre. Its stately Tudor revivals and elegant Colonial homes are filled with textiles that reflect decades of careful collecting: hand-knotted Persian carpets, silk Tabriz pieces, and antique runners that have anchored hallways for generations.
These rugs need more than a surface steam clean. At Premier Rug Cleaning, we operate a purpose-built rug care facility in nearby Glenview — approximately 10 minutes from Glencoe. Our plant houses industrial dusting equipment, controlled-immersion wash bays, centrifuge water extractors, and climate-controlled drying rooms. This allows us to clean each rug individually, matching solutions precisely to its fiber and dye composition.
For Glencoe homeowners, the process is effortless: we pick up your rug for free, photograph it before and after cleaning, document the work on video, and deliver it back looking renewed. Or drive over to our facility at 2003 Johns Dr for a walk-in drop-off.
Hand-knotted, hand-woven, and machine-made Oriental rugs
Delicate fibers requiring specialized low-moisture techniques
Wool, cotton, jute, sisal, and blended fiber rugs
Deep enzyme treatment that eliminates odors at the source
Binding, serging, fringe repair, and patching
Museum-quality care for irreplaceable heirloom pieces
Four careful stages — every rug receives individual attention
We test fiber content, dye stability, and pre-existing conditions. Every rug is photographed before work begins.
Industrial dusting machines remove deep-seated dry soil — often several pounds per rug — that vacuuming misses entirely.
Fiber-specific solutions applied by hand. Complete rinsing removes all soap, soil, and allergens from the rug.
Temperature-regulated drying prevents color bleeding and mildew. Final grooming, fringe detailing, and quality check.
Glencoe homes along Green Bay Road and the lakefront are filled with rugs that carry both monetary and sentimental value — antique Tabriz carpets, silk Isfahan pieces, and contemporary designer rugs chosen to complement custom interiors. These pieces demand a level of care that no truck-mounted machine can deliver.
Our facility-based approach provides the controlled conditions fine rugs require:
Glencoe residents have entrusted us with their finest textiles for three decades — because we understand that some rugs simply cannot be replaced.

Pricing is determined by the rug’s size, fiber composition, and current condition. Our minimum service charge is $140. We provide a free, no-obligation quote after a hands-on inspection — either at our Glenview facility or when we pick up from your Glencoe home.
For a quick phone estimate, call (847) 847-2004 with your rug’s approximate dimensions and fiber type.
Yes. We provide complimentary pickup and delivery throughout Glencoe and the surrounding North Shore communities. Our team will schedule a time that suits you, collect the rug from your home, and return it after professional cleaning at our Glenview facility. You’re also welcome to drop off directly at 2003 Johns Dr, Glenview, IL 60025.
We clean every type of rug: hand-knotted Oriental and Persian rugs, silk and viscose pieces, wool, cotton, and specialty fiber rugs. We also specialize in antique and museum-quality textiles — the kind of irreplaceable pieces commonly found in Glencoe’s historic homes.
Our enzyme-based pet odor treatment neutralizes urine and organic odors at the molecular level — deep within the rug’s fibers and foundation. This isn’t a fragrance overlay; it’s a complete elimination of the odor source. The treatment is safe for all fiber types, including delicate silk and antique wool.
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days. Rugs that need pet odor treatment, intensive stain work, or structural repairs (fringe, binding, patching) may require extra time. We’ll always provide a clear timeline after our initial assessment.
Our facility is at 2003 Johns Dr, Glenview, IL 60025 — approximately 10 minutes from Glencoe. We’re open Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 4 PM. Walk-in drop-offs are always welcome, or you can view our location on Google Maps for directions.
