Museum-grade care for every rug, every need
Every service performed in-house. Nothing outsourced. From a quick clean to a full antique restoration — one studio, one standard.
Professional Rug Cleaning & Restoration in Chicago and the North Shore
Ahmadi Rug is Chicago’s only full-spectrum rug care studio — offering professional rug cleaning, hand-reweaving repair, museum-grade restoration, formal appraisal, and custom hand-knotted commissions under one roof in our 10,000 sq ft Skokie workshop.
Every rug we touch is cleaned by hand using cold-water, pH-matched chemistry — dye-tested before every wash. No steam, no hot-water extraction, no outsourcing. The same conservation methodology Ghorban Ahmadi developed during nearly a decade training under conservators whose work served the Louvre, British Museum, and State Hermitage.
We serve homeowners and interior designers across Chicago, the North Shore, and the western suburbs. Free insured pickup and delivery from Lincoln Park, Gold Coast, Evanston, Wilmette, Winnetka, Glencoe, Lake Forest, Highland Park, Northbrook, Glenview, Skokie, Hinsdale, Oak Park, and Naperville. Written estimates within 2 hours. IICRC certified. 5.0 Google rating across 79+ verified reviews.
Whether your rug needs a routine professional cleaning, emergency water damage treatment, moth damage repair, color restoration after sun fading, or a formal insurance appraisal — Ahmadi Rug handles every service in-house. Nothing is outsourced. Nothing is rushed.
