Rug and fitted carpet cleaning in Jūrmala - for wooden houses, guest accommodation and seasonal houses

Wooden houses, detached houses and apartment buildings: what rugs you find here

Jūrmala is the largest resort city in Latvia, and its buildings are very varied: historic wooden houses, detached houses, apartment buildings and hotels. Majori, Bulduri, Kauguri and Ķemeri are far from each other, so in the request always write in which part of the city the address is.

In an older wooden house the ceilings can be high and the windows large, and an older wool or hand-made rug may lie on the floor. Such a rug must not be cleaned with hot water and rubbing: wool can felt, and the shrinkage usually cannot be reversed. Dyes can bleed, so colourfastness should be tested on a hidden spot before the rug is wetted. If there is parquet under the rug, write that in the request.

In a detached house or an apartment building, a larger synthetic rug stays at home, and the price is from €6/m². For wool and cotton rugs the price is from €10/m², and for silk, viscose, hand-made and Persian rugs from €15/m² with the final price set from a photo. We do not do repairs or fringe restoration.

Guest accommodation, hotels and sanatorium buildings

In the Soviet period sanatoriums and rest homes were built in all parts of Jūrmala, and the city still has hotels and health and rehabilitation centres. If you manage a guesthouse, a boarding house or a medical facility, the hallways and rooms may have fitted carpet, and it is cleaned on site.

For businesses the price depends on the area and the volume, and the unit prices are the same “from” prices: for fitted carpet up to 100 m² from €4/m², above 100 m² from €2.50/m² for the whole area. For example, 120 m² × €2.50 = from €300. State when the rooms are free. More: hotel carpet cleaning and clinic carpet cleaning.

A seasonal house: a rug that spends the winter in an unheated room

Jūrmala has seasonally used properties. If a house stands unheated in winter, it is better to clean the rug before autumn and store it in a dry place. Conservators advise against cellars and attics, and advise not folding the rug but rolling it in the direction of the pile onto a wide tube, wrapped in cotton cloth. Moisture is a storage risk, so a dry place matters more than whether it is a closed box or a breathable cover.

For a wool rug, moth larvae can be a problem in dark storage: they avoid light and feed on wool. If the larvae are alive, that is pest control work. More: how to store a rug and carpet cleaning in a private house.

Distances in a long city: what is included and what costs extra

Jūrmala is long. Bulduri is about 11 km from the Riga boundary, Sloka 29 km, Kauguri 32 km and Ķemeri 36 km. Up to about 15 km from the Riga boundary travel is included in the price, and pick-up and return costs €10 (both ways together). Sloka, Kauguri and Ķemeri are further out, so there travel costs from €10, and pick-up and return is €10 and another €10. For parts between Bulduri and Sloka, write the address in the request; a specialist gives the price from the address.

The main connections towards Riga are the A10 and an electrified railway line with several stations. In summer, traffic and parking availability by the beach and in the central parts can differ from winter, so in the request write where a car can stop by the house.

Smoke smell in rooms and curtains

If people have smoked in a room for years, tobacco residue stays in fabrics: in one study it was still there in cotton and polyester after 19 months. Cleaning a rug or curtains can reduce the smell, but we cannot promise it will disappear, because it can return from the room itself. Painting and wiping give only a short-term result.

If the whole room smells, cleaning one item will not solve it. For curtains: curtain cleaning for smoke smell. For rugs: rug cleaning for smell. Odour treatment is extra, from €3/m².

Tall windows and large curtains in a wooden house

A tall room means long curtains. For heavy, night and double curtains the price is from €3.70/m² of fabric, for thin and day curtains and sheers, from €2.30/m². The price is based on the width and the length of the curtain itself. Some natural fibres move with moisture and can change length by up to 3%, so in the request write the fabric composition from the label.

The height of the curtain rail and the weight of the curtains affect take-down and rehanging; that is a separate job priced case by case. More: curtain dry cleaning.

The minimum order is €45: if the total is lower, you pay €45, and this applies only to cleaning.
