ORIENTAL RUGS FOR A LIFETIME AND GENERATIONS
Keeping your rugs maintained and repaired is essential for protecting your investment. We can identify what is necessary to enhance the value of your rug.
We wash using traditional Persian methods:
We wash Oriental Rugs at our Gold River, California plant in the traditional Persian way using water and a special soap, washing and then rinsing them thoroughly in a way that takes more time and skill, yet costs affordable. Our cleaning method brings back and preserves the beauty of your Oriental Rugs. We also have sun-drying facilities in the spring and summer. We have a professional crew that recognizes dyes that might run during the cleaning process; in addition, we have a place for washing and hanging rugs and the personnel to handle the weight of the rug which is 3 to 4 times heavier when cleaned and wet. This kind of care and attention is not done by carpet cleaners, who surface clean the rugs. As long as customers can not recognize the difference they will really think their Oriental Rugs has been properly cleaned.
Most carpet cleaners give you rug cleaning services only from the front surfaces of your oriental rugs with soap foam and then hang the rugs to dry. This short-cut method leaves soap and dirt residue deep within the rug. In time, with this process, the fibers will become stiff, dingy, and susceptible to dry rot.
We would be happy to take customers into our plant and show them how WE WASH and clean the rugs. There is no better way to care for your rugs than the service we offer. Even when our customers move to other areas they pay the expense to ship their oriental rugs to us because they recognize the results of our washing, the care we take when cleaning the rugs and our attention to detail.

Repairing is a complex process requiring experienced craftsmen and depending on the value of your rug, there are a number of procedures that we can employ to repair or restore your rug. First, we will expertly assess the true value of your rug, regardless of the condition, so that you spend the proper amount to repair it based on its quality, condition and value.
As 3rd generation Persian Rug expert, Majid has been the most considerate and honest person I have ever met and I trust his expertise and advice on each and every piece that I have purchased from him over the years. Between Majid and his wife Bita, they restored the Persian Nain and it is on display in the living room of my home and looks beautiful.

Very glad I found Shanei oriental Rug gallery to repair a large hole in the center of a custom made area rug. My favorite rug was placed under a coffee table in the living room for 21 years. Now along came our new puppy and he chewed a ragged 4 inch hole clear through. The repair blends in perfectly. The rug was cleaned and now looks better than it has in years.

I wanted a professional & reliable company to clean and repair some antique Persian rugs that I've had in my garage for a number of years. I found Shanei Oriental Rug Gallery and decided to try them because of their great reviews, in spite of the fact that it's an 85 mile drive one-way from my home. I met Majid when I arrived and he was extremely informative.
He told me how my rugs were made, and why there are different color variations in the patterns. He let me know that these rugs are works of art and one-of-a-kind, since they're handmade. I found Majid to be so kind, and he & his wife are delightful! I had Majid clean, repair and appraise my rugs, and they turned out beautifully! He also has many, many rugs for sale, both antique and modern. I HIGHLY recommend Shanei Oriental Rug Gallery for quality and friendliness!

Puppy might have chewed a hole in a beautiful rug that we love. Believe me when I say we loved the rug more than the puppy at that moment in time. Good thing he's cute. Thank goodness for Majid at Shanei. He took it, gave me a price that I thought was too low and said it would take two weeks to fix it. He's a popular man and it took a little longer than that, but it was well worth the wait.
It's a testament to his work that when he unrolled it to discuss the process of mending the rug that I was looking at the wrong spot. I couldn't tell where the hole had been. A class-act, family man who knows his trade. We'll be back for any weaving requests!

We brought all of our Persian rugs to Shanei Rug Gallery to be cleaned and repaired. The rugs were returned in beautiful condition. The colors were again vibrant and rich. We are very happy with the results, and glad that we trusted in their expertise. We will definitely use them again in the future to maintain the beauty of our rugs. Thank you Shanei!

We have a beautiful Egyptian rug that had unfortunately been quite soiled by our dog buddies. Being relatively new to Sacramento, I turned to online reviews for someone who could handle not only cleaning but deodorizing this lovely piece. I loved the pictures on their website showing how Shanei literally bathes your rug in special tanks to get them truly clean through and through.
I am so glad I found them! Our rug looks brand new and not only that, it SMELLS brand new, too! There is no odor of perfume or solvent, just a fresh, clean scent. They were very pleasant to deal with and I recommend them without reservation.

I am so glad I finally found Shanei Rug Gallery. Originally I took several small Kilim rugs for cleaning. They did such a great job that later I asked them to clean and repair two oriental rugs. Once again, they did an outstanding job and were able to suggest some repairs to the largest (and most valuable) of my rugs. In addition to their fine work, they are lovely people and I am so pleased to know them. They will forever after be my "go to" people for anything to do with rugs.

I have been using Shanei Rugs for cleaning our rugs for over a year now and am so grateful for their exceptional service. They have treated our Persian and Oriental rugs so well that they appear brand new. Mr. Majid is so knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend their services for your Persian and Oriental cleaning rug needs.

It has been 10+ years, since I was last visited Shanei Persian & Oriental Rugs Gallery. I remembered the craftmanship and care given to my rugs. My tribal rug needed repair and cleaning. I wasn't sure if it was worth saving, even though I love it. What was I going to do? I remembered Shanei and sought out his experience again. I was thankful he was still located at the same address.
His work is high qualilty. His knowledge of valued/cherished rugs the best. I am a retired high school teacher who was in a time of need. Shanei was able to repair my antique tribal rug, which tells a story all of its' own. I find his prices to be the best, both: reasonable and fair. Plus,.... excellent customer care and communication. He wants you to be happy and satisfied with his work. I am!

I am so impressed with these delightful people. They have now cleaned both my Kilim and Oriental rugs and they did an outstanding job. They seemed to care as much for my rugs as I do and suggested repairs for my most valuable rug that will ensure a longer life. In addition to their fine work, they are clearly lovely people with great integrity. I am so glad I found them!

Amazing. My dog chewed an enormous 6-inch hole in my parents' beautiful Turkish rug (brought from Turkey almost 30 years ago, and not replaceable). Hoping not to be disowned, we brought the rug to Majid who was honest about whether it could be repaired, what it would cost, and how long it would take. The result was stunning--the hole was re-weaved perfectly, and you can't tell there was ever any damage. Absolutely wonderful. Thank you, Majid!!

My blue Persian rug was seriously damaged by moths during almost two years in storage. I thought it was completely ruined and was heartbroken over the loss. As a last-ditch effort to save it, I called Majid. I'm so glad I did. While we couldn't save the entire rug, he was able to rid it of pests, kill the larvae, remove the damaged exterior edges, and re-tassle the ends.
My family heirloom is now smaller, but still gorgeous and will remain a part of our family for many more decades. I cannot thank Majid enough for his hard work, honesty and integrity. He assessed my rug, gave me a full scope of work, estimate and timeline. He then met each of his promises with high quality work, on-time delivery, and a big hug to help celebrate our success. THANK YOU Majid for being a consummate professional and for keeping the fine art of rug cleaning and preservation alive and well. If you need your high-end rugs cleaned or repaired, GO SEE MAJID. You will be very glad you did.

Shanei did an awesome job cleaning and repairing my very OLD authentic Turkuman rug. I was very impressed with the quality of the service and the price was very affordable. I also had them clean and repair my Persian-style Bokhara-style rug. The repairs were wonderful and the cleaning was amazing. Being new to the area, I chose Shanei because they have a very high reputation with local rug owners. I will definitely use them again.

Majeed and Beata are true professionals and artisians in the world of rugs. I hauled 2 rugs from my garage-had been in there 20 years-to have cleaned. Wow! Not only did I receive a FULL history of my rugs-when I picked them up-they looked new and well restored! One of the rugs turned out to be an antique that Beata lovingly hand stitched to create a remarkable piece-I cannot tell you how much I appreciate their craftsmanship, expertise and excellent service.
My rugs look gorgeous-I am dropping off 2 more today. Thank you, Majeed and Beata-a true personal service that I will continue to recommend. Pricing is extremely fair-all the work is hand done-unbelievable! Thank you!

I had Majib from ShaNei rug gallery give me an estimate on our 10 x 13 Afghanistan rug that needed cleaning. Majib was very professional and courteous and gave me a reasonable estimate. Majib delivered the rug several weeks later and I was very pleased with the results. My only concern was it took a little longer then I had anticipated.

I have four expensive area rugs that needed to be cleaned. I wanted to protect our investment and have someone clean them that knew what they were doing. After checking Yelp, ShaNei's website and speaking a number of times with the owner (Majid) re their capabilities and process I felt they had the expertise to do the job. Majid and I agreed on a time for him to come to my home to inspect and pick the rugs up for cleaning and some minor repair on one of the rugs (between 8 & 10AM).
The time came and went without a call. I called Majid at roughly 10:30. He asked to reschedule from 3 - 5PM stating that he "got busy". Well, 5:30 came, no show, no call. I called Majid again and his only response was, "can I come by tomorrow?" I told him to not bother and that I would be using someone else to take care of my rugs. They might be very capable but wasn't willing to take a chance on them based on the initial unprofessional engagement.

I was very anxious about getting my beautiful rug cleaned, especially as it was going to be cleaned off site. I should not have worried. It came back absolutely like new- every stain and mark gone, the colors vibrant again. The service I got was excellent from the lovely staff, who kept me up to date on delivery time etc. They even did an especially late delivery for me as I wanted it back for my guests arrival the next day. I would definitely recommend this company, great investment.
