Description of Work: We took three smaller oriental rugs to them to be cleaned. They were good about getting urine stains out made from our puppy. They have always been excellent. We have been a client of theirs for at least 15 years.

Description of Work: They cleaned two wool Oriental rugs, one about 6.5 by 9.5 feet and the other a runner about 3 x 10 feet. I had spilled a glass of red wine on one rug and blotted it up 36 hours before taking it to be cleaned. The warehouse manager, Alex Luongo, was knowledgeable and very helpful. He said he would begin treatment immediately on the stain so it would not set any further. He also explained the washing and drying process they use. He offered a stain-resistant final finish at an additional cost, which I agreed to. When I picked up the rugs, which were ready earlier than promised, they unrolled them so I could see that the wine stain had come out completely.

As stated above.
Description of Work: One wool rug was badly stained. Despite their best efforts, they were unable to remove the stain completely. However, it is easy to hide the flaw. The other carpet came out beautifully. Overall, we were VERY satisfied with both rugs. Yes I would recommend them to clean your expensive imported carpet.

Courteous and informative on the phone and in the shop. Kept me informed about the status and expected completion time for the project. Called and asked to keep the rugs longer to be sure they were completely clean and refreshed. Very accommodating and professional.

We went to the store, and browsed a wide selection of carpets. We ordered our new rugs, and picked them up about a week later. We received a personal letter of thanks from Mr. Gonsehauser stating to please contact him or a member of his staff if they could ever be of service in the future. There are rugs for all budgets and all houses. If you are in the market for a quality rug, try Mark Gonsenhauser's store; he and his staff will work with you in finding the best rug to meet your needs.

Mr. Gonsenhauser is the epitome of professionalism. Our rugs, which we decided to have cleaned, did not do well in the process. Mr. Gonsenhauser called me personally, reviewed the entire situation with me, and came up with a solution that worked well for all parties. This is the only place I will purchase oriental carpets from. Mr. Gonsenhauser's dedication to customer service is perhaps the best I have ever experienced in any situation. If you live in Hampton Roads, Virginia there is no other establishment that offers better selection, price, quality, and, most importantly, service after the sale.
Description of Work: We brought our oriental carpets in for cleaning.
