Deluxe Dye Works: Meeting the Needs of Our Bay Area Customers Since 1912

"They picked up 8x10 ft. rug from my home (at additional charge) for cleaning after our dog pooped on the extensive cream colored section of this valued Chinese rug. They had very quick to respond which was terrific given the smelly nature of the problem. They returned the rug in sparkling condition just one week later." - Patty Einarson (Angie's List Review)

"They cleaned two wool oriental-style runner rugs and made new pads for them. Excellent! I found two oriental style wool runners at a garage sale (bargain of the century). They cleaned both of them and made them look like new. They also cut new backing pads for them. I now have 2 runners for the price of the cleaning and pads." - Karl Reinke (Angie's List Review)

"We took our 5 x 8 Oriental rug in to Deluxe Dye because it had some heavily soiled areas on it. When we picked it up 7 days later, it looked as good as it did they day we bought it!" - Terri Hoornstra (Angie's List Review)

"We had Deluxe Dye Works clean 5 rugs and 2 rugs of them were re-fringed. They did an excellent job! I was very impressed with their work in re-fringing the rugs. Great job cleaning and they look like new. Pickup and delivery service was exactly as promised, since we needed a quick turnaround due to pending move." - Bob & Trudy Dauner (Angie's List Review)

"They picked up, cleaned, returned and installed our large oriental carpet. The rug is clean, colors are vibrant and Deluxe provided a hardwood-floor compatible new pad. We had an excellent experience and would not hesitate to use their services again. Excellent experience." - Henry Kaplan (Angie's List Review)

"I have used Deluxe Dye Works for many years to clean my area rugs. Not only have they cleaned some rather large carpets, they also have repaired worn edging and replaced fringe trim and did a beautiful job." - Teresa Schmidt (Angie's List Review)

"I have brought my rugs here every 6 months and they continue to do a great job cleaning them and protecting them from wear. I would highly recommend them without an issue. Consider cleaning an old rug vs. buying a new one, especially if it is of quality fiber." - Maggie E (Yelp! Review)

"We took 3 Karastan wool rugs there to be cleaned, and also had them cut new pads for us. It cost exactly what the quote was, and our rugs came back beautifully bright and clean. They really know rugs and were very knowledgeable." - Lucy L (Yelp! Review)

"We have had rugs cleaned by them for years, each time the experience has been outstanding. They are the best!" - Bill M (Yelp! Review)

"I took two Persian rugs to be cleaned and repaired. 5 stars, excellent job. Very pleasant and easy to work with. I highly recommend this company." - Lesley M (Yelp! Review)

"We had 2 rugs cleaned by Deluxe just before Thanksgiving. They showed up exactly when they said they'd arrive. The rugs were done on time and looked like new. And they clearly know their business. Then - disaster. Our 12 year old dumped an entire plate of red curry chicken splattering it in a wide arch over half the rug 1 week before Christmas. Don't know how they managed it, but it was back to perfect by Christmas Eve. We wouldn't go anywhere else!" - Kristin L (Yelp! Review)

"Great shop all around. I received a nice persian rug from my family that needed cleaning. I was picky about who cleaned this rug because of its value. Deluxe Dye Works really knows their business when it come to hand woven rugs and did an excellent job. Their service was efficient, friendly, and straightforward. They measured the rug and gave me an exact quote when I dropped it off. It was ready the next week, when they said it would be. They cut a new pad for me also. It's an old handwoven rug, so not quite square. They did it right by cutting it exactly to the rug and marking the rug and pad on one corner to be able to orient it correctly. Looked like they had some other services like appraisals and repairs, which I would trust are worthy as well." - Thomas K.

"Deluxe Dye Works was so thorough with their service on our rugs. They picked up and delivered the freshly cleaned rugs accommodating my busy schedule. This family run business was attentive and professional to our needs. I will definitely use their services again soon." - Canna

"This family business was fantastic. I have a 100,000 dollar rug and they did a wonderful job of cleaning this masterpiece. I would recommend this business to anyone who has an expensive rug." - Dee S.

"They've cleaned my rugs for last fifteen to twenty years. I've always been very satisfied with their work because it is high quality. I've recommend their service to my friends." - Claudia F

"They have cleaned my area rugs at least a half dozen times over the last 8-10 years. I've always had good experiences with them over the years. I've come to know the owner, and I like his commitment to taking care of his clients. He truly cares about customer service, and provides great consistency. I've already recommended them to others." - Richard C

"I've been using them for the past 30 or 40 years. They are absolutely wonderful! I've never gone elsewhere because I've never had a need to. They are very good at dealing with pet stains, and I think their prices are reasonable I can't say enough good things about their service!" - Patricia S

"I used Deluxe Dye Works and Area Rug Cleaners, two years ago. They cleaned the area rug for me. They do area rugs. The first time I used them, I had a white carpet. It had a white oriental design. I had a very large dog. She would always take out her frustrations on the carpet and it was always on the same spot. I had used different cleaning products to get rid of the spot. After she died, I decided to take the carpet to this company. They did a beautiful job. The pale urine color stains were all gone. There was absolutely nothing left. The odor was completely gone. Whenever I have an area rug that needs to be cleaned, I always take it to them. They have been around for years. I know that they pick up the carpets. However, I found it easier to take it to them. They do an outstanding job. On their most recent job, I spent about $130.1 will definitely use them again in the future." - Cynthia K

"Cleaning of a 9 x 12 foot wool area rug. Purchase of a 9 x 12 carpet pad cut to match the rug. I am very happy with the service I received at Deluxe Dye Works. The rug is a Karastan wool carpet with edge binding. Since it was rolled up in my garage for a few months after I moved, I decided to take it for cleaning instead of just putting it into my new house. Deluxe Dye Works seemed well qualified for the job. When I took my rug in, I was given a nice little tour of how rugs are cleaned. Rugs are hand washed in a large cleaning area with water and soap, then hung up in a large vertical dryer. The process took about 2 weeks from when I dropped off the rug to when I was informed it was ready for pickup. I also had them cut a new pad. I think the cost of having the rug cleaned alone would be about $120 or so (I don't remember the exact cost split between the cleaning and the pad.) The cost of cleaning a rug with tassels or something more delicate than my rug would cost a bit more I was told. My rug came back rolled up in paper, very dean, nice smelling, dry and soft. My wife, son, and I were very happy with the results!" - Daniel M

"I use them to get my lose carpets cleaned. I have been using them for over 15 years and I would recommend them to everyone. They were professional, punctual and responsive. They were also very reasonable and their overall service was very good." - Gladys B

"I had a fine antique persian rug cleaned and deodorized by Deluxe Dye Works. The rug was 9' x 12'. I also had a pad cut. I could not have asked for anything better than the work Deluxe Dye Works performed. They measured the rug and gave me an exact quote when I dropped it off. It was ready in one week, as promised. They are very service oriented and know their rugs. My rug was valuable and I felt great trusting Deluxe Dye Works with it. Being a handwoven rug, it's not quite square. They did it right by cutting it exactly to the rug and marking the rug and pad on one corner to be able to orient it correctly. They offer other services like appraisals and repairs, which I would trust are worthy as well." - Pamela D

"I must have contacted 3 or 4 other companies from Angie's List; none of them did antique/Persian/Oriental rugs, and they kept referring me to other companies, but the companies they referred me to didn't do specialty rugs either! Finally, one of them got it right, and referred to to these guys, and boy, am I glad. These guys identified and gave a rough-estimate appraisal on a gorgeous rug I bought in Morocco; turns out, I was ripped off by an unscrupulous merchant; it was a rayon Belgian, not a silk Moroccan! *pout* But oh well. They took it and cleaned it for me. They also gave me a reasonable estimate to fix some damage to the tassels, but once I found out the rug was just a forgery, I decided not to go for it. I also had them Scotchguard it. They also do insurance appraisals, but again, since my rug turned out not to be anything too special, I declined. SUPER! I have rarely been this impressed by a company. Even though my job was a cheap one by most standards, they gave it a lot of time and care and attention Greg (the manager) answered all my questions really well, and was very friendly. I brought the finished rug home, and there were still a couple of "scratchy" spots. I thought they had missed a few spots, but it turns out the rug was such a lame forgery that some of the glue from the backing had broken down and seeped through, but anyway, I lived kinda close, so Greg and one of his guys came by my place, checked the rug out, took it back to retouch up those spots to see if there was anything else they could do, and got it done for me at no extra cost. Really nice guys, really good service, and they seem pretty knowledgeable. A+++++" - Andrew K

"Pick up and clean several area rugs dirtied by dog. I've used these guys several times now. They are prompt and very courteous. Did a great job with my rugs. Customer service rocks. I've had trouble with my dog peeing on my living room area rug. I had the rug cleaned once and paid full price for the cleaning and "pet treatment/deodorizing". I since have needed to have the same work done several times shortly thereafter and they have been very cool in giving me a price break because they sympathize with my problem. Superior customer service, and nice guys too." - Suzanne R
