A purpose-built facility with the expertise your fine textiles require
Highland Park sits along Lake Michigan's shore, where historic estates near Ravinia Park and stately homes throughout the Exmoor and Braeside neighborhoods house some of the North Shore's most impressive rug collections. Whether passed down through generations or recently acquired from specialty dealers, these textiles represent significant cultural and financial investments that demand more than routine carpet cleaning.
At Premier Rug Cleaning, we operate a dedicated rug care facility in Glenview — approximately 20 minutes from Highland Park. Our plant features industrial air-dusting systems, controlled-immersion wash bays, centrifuge water extractors, and temperature-regulated drying rooms. This equipment allows us to clean each rug individually, selecting solutions tailored to its unique fiber composition and dye chemistry.
Highland Park residents enjoy a seamless experience: we pick up your rug at no charge, photograph it before and after every stage of cleaning, document the work on video, and return it looking revitalized. Complete transparency from pickup to delivery.

Four meticulous stages — tailored to your rug's specific needs
We evaluate fiber composition, dye stability, and structural condition. Pre-cleaning photographs document every detail.
High-powered air dusting removes embedded grit and dry particulates that household vacuums leave behind.
Fiber-matched cleaning agents are applied by hand. Thorough rinsing flushes out every trace of soil and residue.
Regulated temperature and airflow prevent color migration and mildew. Final grooming restores pile direction and fringe.
Highland Park's affluent lakefront community is home to extraordinary textile collections — from antique Tabriz pieces gracing Ravinia-area parlors to contemporary designer rugs in newly renovated homes. Entrusting these to a general carpet company equipped only with a truck-mount and hot-water extractor puts their beauty and value at risk.
Our facility-based approach provides the controlled conditions fine rugs need:
From the historic homes near Sunset Park to the newer developments west of Route 41, Highland Park families count on us because we treat every rug as if it were our own.

Every rug is priced individually based on its dimensions, fiber composition, and current condition. Our minimum service charge is $140. We provide a free, no-obligation quote after a thorough hands-on inspection — either at our Glenview facility or when we pick up the rug from your Highland Park home.
For a preliminary estimate, call (847) 847-2004 and let us know the approximate size and material. You can also request a service online.
We specialize in hand-knotted Oriental and Persian rugs — the type commonly found in Highland Park's historic and luxury homes. Each piece is individually assessed for fiber type, dye stability, and structural integrity before any cleaning begins. We use full immersion washing with fiber-specific solutions, never batch-processing or one-size-fits-all chemicals. Our antique rug care protocols are designed for irreplaceable heirloom textiles.
Yes. Our enzyme-based pet odor treatment breaks down urine crystals at the molecular level — penetrating both the surface fibers and the rug's cotton or wool foundation. We eliminate odors completely rather than masking them with fragrances. This is one of our most requested services among Highland Park pet owners, especially for valuable rugs where store-bought cleaners risk permanent damage.
Absolutely. Viscose and silk rugs are among the most challenging fibers to clean properly. Improper methods cause browning, matting, and irreversible texture loss. Our low-moisture techniques and climate-controlled drying environment prevent these issues. We also offer specialty fiber cleaning for bamboo silk, Tencel, and other sensitive materials commonly found in modern Highland Park interiors. Watch our process videos to see the difference.
Yes. Our rug repair services include fringe restoration, edge re-binding, serging, patching, and re-weaving. Many Highland Park clients bring us rugs with wear from heavy foot traffic, pet damage, or simply the passage of time. We assess every repair during the initial inspection and provide a detailed quote before any work begins. Repairs are typically completed alongside the cleaning process.
Our main facility is at 2003 Johns Dr, Glenview, IL 60025 — approximately 20 minutes from Highland Park. We offer complimentary pickup and delivery throughout Highland Park and the entire North Shore. We're open Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 4 PM, and drop-offs are always welcome.
