I am beyond thrilled with Varter's Oriental Rug cleaning services. I had two Oriental rugs that needed cleaning and they came back better than I could've imagined. Clean, fresh smelling, and they even feel better underfoot due to the deep hand-cleaning that they provide. Also, excellent customer service with friendly pick up and delivery. I would highly recommend Varter's!

We had been holding off on cleaning this rug we had gotten as a gift for 5 years, and we're recommended to go to Varter's. I haven't seen this rug look this shiny and clean even when we first got it! Plus, they were very safe, I'm quite anxious about Covid-19 but felt their procedure was appropriate and well organized. Excellent service from an excellent business run by friendly people :)

I can't say enough good things about my experience at Varter's. We had two rugs cleaned when we moved apartments, one 100 years old that I had not taken care of, the other a kilim rug I loved the was heavily stained. Isguhi was incredibly nice and helpful from the beginning as well as transparent about pricing options (I was nervous about the cost). The rugs were picked up and delivered in great condition by a super nice and helpful man who gave advice and talked through what they'd done. This is the kind of place that reminds you why small businesses are so special. Kind and honest

I had a few Oriental rugs that were over 50 years old, and let's just say I'm not the most meticulous housekeeper, so they looked pretty ratty and tired. After the rugs made a visit to Varter's, they came out looking brand new. In one case, there was an ink stain they could not remove chemically so they removed a bit of fabric and rewove it with new matching wool. I can't find that spot now. Really amazing workmanship and attention to detail.

I found an old rug in a basement that has been transformed thanks to Varter's. And the price was very good! I had called another shop that quoted me 5x the price for the cleaning! At Varter's, they cleaned and repaired my rug, and it is literally sparkling. These are very honest good people. Couldn't recommend more highly!

I've purchased three Oriental rugs at Varter Rugs in Belmont. Ishguhi Shirinian was a pleasure to deal with, honed in on our best options for our budget and style of rugs, and bent over backward to make us happy.
The folks at Varter have also cleaned several of my area rugs, and they do an absolutely thorough and beautiful job.
I can't recommend this establishment enough! Kim in Somerville
