I was told I needed additional work done on my rug after submitting for cleaning. After clarifying and agreeing to the work and costs, rug began falling apart at corner, turns out rug renovating did not do the work charged. They then rewrote bill to reflect work never assigned and shifted cost to cleaning. (I have emails confirming work to be done and the cost of $220. Which they now want to charge an additional $850 to fix) SMH!

Description of Work: At the recommendation of a friend, I called Rug Renovating Co and was put in contact with Morgan Williams (sales consultant). I told him that my family had just moved into a house that had been left pretty clean by the previous owners, however, I wanted to sanitize the carpets before moving in. Morgan related the following: "In order to do a thorough cleaning and sanitation of your carpeting, we use the hot water method (not shampoo, since this tends to push dirt into the rug). The hot water method removes dust mites, grime and old dirt from the carpet. Other companies may charge less, but to compensate for this, they schedule a lot of customers per day resulting in a rushed, poor cleaning job of your carpet. At Rug Renovating, we schedule plenty of time for each and every customer; because we don't overbook, we give each client the customized service and the time they deserve." | |Morgan quoted $756.00 to clean and sanitize the basement and the office carpets and three staircases. When asked how long the job would take, Morgan estimated the job would take "three to three and a half hours". I told him that another company had given me a quote of $400.00 for this job and I asked him why Rug Renovating was charging so much more. Again, Morgan stated that the extra time and care this company gives to each and every job justified their higher fees. Nothing could be further from the truth. | |I hired Rug Renovating Co and the job was scheduled for June 24 from 12 to 3PM. Two men arrived at 1:10PM and they were done and gone from the house by 2:15PM. In the hour the men were at the house there was simply not enough time allotted to do the job Morgan had described this company would do, with some areas not done at all and some areas showing streaks and unevenness. | |The following day I called Morgan and related the above. He said he would send a senior representative to the house to review the situation. Walter came to the house on July 1. As I began to explain the situation, Walter cut me off, refusing to listen. He said the cleaning had been done, period, end of the conversation. Walter was rude, disrespectful and unprofessional. | |On a subsequent phone call with Morgan I told him of Walter's inappropriate behavior. I told Morgan that the inadequate job done was as unacceptable as was Walter's behavior, and furthermore that charging me $756.00 for one hour of work was gouging a customer. I requested a 50% refund (this still allowed $378.00 of payment for the one hour the men were at the house) but my request was refused. Eventually Morgan was authorized to grant a 15% percent refund as gesture of "good faith". | |There was nothing to like in the way Rug Renovating Co conducted business; my experience with this company was deeply unsatisfactory. Buyer: beware. |

I had used them in the past and they were much cheaper then. I chose not to use them. There didn't seem to be any loyalty.

The cleaning was okay, but my experience was poor. I negotiated a 15% discount and when the bill came through, they didn't include it in all the items, just a few. and they quoted a price of $140 on the repair and it became $180. When I called them, they said they'd review the bill and get back with me. They never got back with me, and when I called them again, they said they reviewed it and that there would be no changes. This is a company I have used in the past, but I will not use them ever again in the future.

They were expensive, but they were good. They did really well. They moved everything out of the way like heavy dressers as well. They were here on time and their professionalism was good too.

The rug looks beautiful. Colors bright and the beautiful fringes make the rug look like new. This is my 3rd time using this company and would not hesitate to recommend it to my friends.
Description of Work: Rug picked up and delivered as scheduled by very polite/helpful workers. Services arranged via telephone and accurate estimate received for each service that was requested. Telephone contacts were always pleasant, helpful and efficient. Very dirty, ivory colored, oriental carpet was cleaned, moth proofed, fiber guard applied and new fringes attached by hand.

After viewing their website showing the extensive equipment they use, I called to inquire about having my oriental rugs cleaned. I was very impressed with their representatives knowledge of oriental rugs. After they had a chance to look over the rugs, they called to explain some suggested repairs, which I agreed to. It took about two weeks to get the rugs back. They were neatly wrapped and delivered by courteous drivers. The rugs look beautiful. The whole process was very professionally done.

We have several antique oriental carpets that required cleaning and some repair work. I found Rug Renovation to be punctual, polite and knowledgeable. The company picked up and delivered the rugs on time. Their service people were good about calling and giving estimates for cleaning and repairs before moving ahead with any work. I also believe they are quite knowledgeable about rugs and how best to preserve and maintain their value. My one issue is that I felt there was pressure to do more expensive and extensive rug restoration, such as re-weaving, than I was prepared to spring for. I also found that while prices for basic cleaning were very reasonable, minor repairs, such as a frayed edge, quickly added up.

They come in pick up the rugs and bring it back when done. I have been out to their facility as well and they do a very good job. They have handled a variety of rugs for us and they always do what they say they will do. They are within our budgets and on time. I am very pleased with them.

It was very pleasant and cordial. It wasn't stuffy. The man that came out was very spoken. I didn't have to question whether I wanted to let him in the house or not. He had all of his materials with him so I knew he was a represenative of the company and it wasn't an issue. He was very pleasant, and very thorough. There were no problems and nothing was broken. They came when they said they were going to come, and I would definitely recommend them if somebody asked.
Description of Work: Rug Renovating came out today and they cleaned 568 sq. ft. of carpet plus 12 steps. So far so good, I always like to wait until the day after to see what happens.
