The Rug Guru (Rug Cleaning and Repairing)

About The Rug Guru: Auckland’s specialist rug care service provider, a master rug restorer with over 34 years of hands-on experience working with Persian, Oriental, silk, wool, and antique rugs. Every rug is treated as a unique handmade textile with cultural, historical, and structural value—not simply a floor covering. Our approach is preservation-focused and restoration-led where necessary. We aim to retain original fibres, respect traditional craftsmanship, and recommend only the level of treatment required to protect the rug’s long-term condition and value. Rather than applying standardised solutions, every rug is individually assessed based on its age, fibre condition, construction, dye stability, and overall structural integrity.
