When a storm strikes or water damage hits, rugs can often take a beating. It’s essential to act quickly to prevent further damage and keep your rugs in great shape. Here’s a guide on what to do immediately if your rugs get wet, along with what to avoid. Immediate Steps to Take Lay Rugs Flat: To maintain their shape and prevent dye transfer, place your wet rugs flat on the ground. Blot Excess Moisture: Use a clean, white cloth to gently blot any wet areas, helping to absorb excess water. Enhance Airflow: Ensure good ventilation by opening windows and using fans and dehumidifiers to speed up the drying process. What to Avoid Don’t Roll Up: Rolling up a wet rug can cause dye transfer and damage to the fibers. Avoid Hanging: Hanging a wet rug may result in stretching and misshaping. No Excessive Heat: Avoid using excessive heat to dry the rug, as this can cause shrinkage and damage. Preventing Dye Transfer If you need to move the rug, place a white cloth on top and then roll it. This helps prevent dye from seeping and staining other areas. Professional Help For thorough cleaning and proper care, it’s best to call a professional rug cleaning service. We have the expertise and equipment to handle water-damaged rugs effectively. By following these guidelines and knowing what to avoid, you can protect your rugs and keep them looking their best, even after water damage.
