Rug Cleaning
Our rug cleaning service extends the lifespan of your rugs through a proprietary process that removes deep-seated dirt and stains. We use eco-friendly solutions tailored to materials like wool, silk, and synthetic fibers. Clients benefit from improved indoor air quality and preserved rug aesthetics, ensuring a healthier home environment.
Oriental Rug Repair
Specializing in hand-knotted Oriental rugs, our repair service addresses fraying, resizing, and structural damage. Technicians trained in traditional techniques restore rugs to their original beauty. This service preserves cultural and sentimental value while maintaining the rug's durability for future generations.
Upholstery Cleaning
Upholstery cleaning revitalizes furniture by removing stains, odors, and allergens from fabrics and leather. Our methods ensure fabric integrity while using non-toxic solutions. Clients enjoy refreshed furniture that enhances home aesthetics and promotes a hygienic living space.
Fiber ProTector Application
Fiber ProTector creates an invisible barrier against spills and stains on carpets and upholstery. This treatment prolongs fabric life by preventing absorption of liquids. Clients gain peace of mind knowing their investments are shielded from accidents without altering texture or appearance.
Pet Stain Removal
Targeted pet stain and odor removal services address both visible stains and lingering smells. Advanced enzymatic cleaners break down organic matter at its source. Homeowners benefit from restored surfaces and a fresher, more hygienic environment free from pet-related contaminants.

Pettyjohn's did an outstanding job cleaning two ivory colored Ethan Allen chair cushions and arm protectors. I had botched a do-it-yourself cleaning job, but now thanks to Katie at Pettyjohn's they are like new again. Their staff was professional, friendly and helpful, and their price was very reasonable. I can highly recommend. Service: Upholstery cleaning

Pettyjohn's is simply the best in the trade for general rug cleaning/restoration, upholstery cleaning or stain removal. They have extensive knowledge and training which is highly beneficial when working with heirloom or delicate fibers. I don't trust anyone else. I have used them to remove red wine stains on a chair cushion and rug as well as a pet stain on a hand woven rug. I call them whenever I am in doubt as to how to pre-treat a rug or an upholstery item. Their waiver states they cannot guarantee results however Perryjohn's has never failed me!

Critical: Professionalism Called five times today. First time they immediately put me on hold. The same young lady said Holland hung up on me. Called back she did same. Last time went to an answering machine. Needed five silk wool nylon rugs cleaned over 2k of business. Guess they are not in the business to make money. Horrible service.

Hands down an AMAZING company. From the customer service side of things to the actual cleaning of the upholstery it was professional, quick, and affordable. They had excellent communication from start to finish and were able to restore two chairs that were badly stained. They came back looking brand new with no stains or odor. I would highly recommend this company to anyone thinking they need to replace a furniture item because it cannot be saved. I don't know how they did it (because I tried myself); so thankful to have been referred to Pettyjohn's!

I found Pettyjohn's rug cleaning to be professional, friendly, courteous, and fair priced. I had looked at other rug cleaners and their prices were much higher. I would highly recommend their services. Service: Carpet cleaning
