Fiber-Shield: Protection that Performs 

Fiber-Shield is a professional-grade stain and soil repellent that bonds to fibers at the molecular level, creating an invisible barrier without changing texture, color, or feel. It’s safe for delicate materials like silk and wool, and it works on carpets, rugs, upholstery, and drapery. 

Hydrophobic Protection

Spills bead on the surface instead of penetrating fibers.

Oil Resistance

Blocks grease and oils that cause permanent stains

Dirt and Soil Repellence

Dirt stays loose, making vacuuming much more effective.

Protection

Minimizes fading caused by excessive sunlight exposure.

I had 3 rugs cleaned and a tear repaired in a 18foot long rug.
Worked with Tigran and he made it all happen. The team picked up the rugs and moved the furniture with utmost care. Another team laid them back down with precision. Very happy with their work.

I had an excellent experience with Kostikyan Rug Cleaning. My rug had a lot of pulls from my cat and needed extra care. Tigran, the representative, was amazing from start to finish—he explained exactly what should be done and made sure the rug was double-washed for the best result.

Pickup and delivery were incredibly smooth and right on time, and the communication throughout was great. The team was extremely responsive and professional.

The rug looks fantastic now, and I’m truly impressed with their attention to detail. I highly recommend Kostikyan to anyone who wants their rug handled with real care and expertise.

I recently had a rug cleaned/deodorized by Costikyan - I’ve used them multiple times in the past. The work on the rugs is always great and, just as importantly, their customer responsiveness is top notch. Cameron was always responsive and couldn’t have been more helpful. Their GPS tracking system that enables you to see exactly when your pickup/delivery will happen is great. Why would anyone use a different service??!!

Sent these three rugs off for cleaning and repair and they came out so beautifully I just don't have words. Tigran and team Costikyan are quite phenomenal in the work that they do - I'm chuffed to have done work with them before and to have a second round come out so lovely!

Frequently asked questions

FAQ: Fiber-Shield Protection 

How long does Fiber-Shield last? 

Fiber-Shield typically provides 1-2 years of protection depending on traffic levels, use patterns, and cleaning frequency. High-traffic areas may need reapplication sooner, while protected pieces in lower-use spaces can maintain effectiveness longer. We provide guidance on when reapplication makes sense based on use. 

Fiber-Shield is a professional-grade textile protection treatment that creates an invisible barrier around each fiber in your rug or carpet. This barrier repels water, oil, and dirt, making spills easier to clean before they become stains. The result is a protected textile that maintains its appearance significantly longer with regular care.

Yes — Fiber-Shield is formulated to be safe for a wide range of fiber types including wool, silk, and synthetic blends. Our technicians assess each textile before application to ensure compatibility with the fabric’s dye and construction. The treatment is applied professionally to ensure even, effective coverage without altering texture or appearance.

Fiber-Shield protection typically lasts 1–3 years depending on the textile’s use, foot traffic, and how frequently it is cleaned. We recommend reapplication after professional cleaning to maintain continuous protection. Our team will advise you on the best maintenance schedule to keep your textiles protected year-round.

Absolutely — Fiber-Shield protection is not limited to rugs and carpets and can be applied to upholstered furniture and drapery as well. This makes it an ideal solution for high-use living areas where spills and soiling are more likely. Ask about bundling Fiber-Shield with your next cleaning service for added value.
