Zoliks Cleaning adds commercial rug equipment for in-home service

Zoliks Cleaning says it has invested in commercial-grade rug cleaning equipment that lets the Hackettstown company clean Oriental, Persian, wool and specialty rugs inside customers’ homes across five northwest New Jersey counties. The move aims to reduce transport risk, speed service and keep valuable rugs from leaving the house.

Why it matters: - The new setup keeps fine rugs in the home instead of sending them to a facility for several days. - Homeowners avoid transport damage, mix-ups with other rugs and long gaps without a key room anchor. - The approach is especially relevant for hand-knotted Oriental and Persian rugs that can carry high monetary or sentimental value.

What happened: - Zoliks Cleaning invested in a commercial-grade dual-motor vacuum system for rug cleaning. - The Hackettstown-based company says the equipment supports in-home cleaning of Oriental, Persian, wool and specialty area rugs. - The company serves Morris, Warren, Sussex, Hunterdon and Somerset counties.

The details: - The new vacuum system joins existing EDIC Galaxy 2000 and Ranger CVX portable extractors and Rotovac 360i rotary jet technology. - The equipment is designed to support professional rug cleaning in living rooms, dining rooms and hallways. - The vacuum stage removes dry soil before hot-water extraction begins. - One industry research estimate puts dry particulate at up to 79% of total carpet and rug soil load. - Zoliks Cleaning pairs the equipment with cleaning solutions from Ecolab, Structured by Nature and Procyon. - Those products carry either EPA Safer Choice recognition or Green Seal certification. - Procyon products are designed for wool and natural fibers. - Ecolab chemistry is used for general soil and heavy-traffic fiber cleaning. - Structured by Nature products are positioned for homes sensitive to chemistry, including households with children, pets and allergy sufferers. - The company says it identifies the fiber before applying any solution. - Zoliks Cleaning says a wool Berber rug needs different chemistry than a nylon family-room carpet.

Between the lines: - The investment signals a push to compete on convenience as much as cleaning quality. - Keeping rugs in the home also reduces the logistical complexity that usually comes with specialty rug care. - The company is leaning on portable commercial equipment and fiber-specific chemistry to make in-home cleaning feel closer to facility-level service.

What's next: - Zoliks Cleaning is inviting homeowners to request free phone or online estimates. - The company offers written pricing that is honored at the time of service. - Services available include area rug cleaning, carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning, air duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning and tile and grout cleaning. - Homeowners can call (908) 521-8438 or visit more information for estimates.

The bottom line: - Zoliks Cleaning is betting that specialized equipment and in-home rug care will appeal to homeowners who want less risk, less downtime and more convenience.
