Will do
It never ceases to amaze me how you can find the nastiest, grossest, dirtiest rugs and make them look brand new. You're a master at what you do
Yeah, somehow they come out with zero sign of wear. Almost as if he's dirtying up unused rugs just for his KZhead channel.
kinda hard to believe he'd be able to dirty up some of these unused rugs in such a way as they look in the videos that would require quite a bit more work then needed or worth
@@jbtechcon7434 I agree. There’s no way.i thinks he adds dirts and let’s it set before cleaning. That first initial layer is just dirty mud.
@@shadowmewtwo1092 But remember, he's doing it all for you KZhead channel. The channel makes money and is also advertisement for his business.
@@jbtechcon7434 I'm sure he does that for some rugs (it's good advertising tbh, does showcase how well his service is), BUT I think he also takes rugs from floods, fires, and landfills.
- Did you do it? - Yes. - What did it cost? - Every drop of the world's water supply.
Fr 💀💀💀💀
воды мире придостаточно. если случится так, что не будет хватать, то море нам в помощь. сейчас технологии дошли до того,что даже соленую воду могут сделать на 99% пресной.
Could you put a caption up detailing the different techniques used?
@@unknown-sg9itWell yeah, but removing salt is a process that requires a lot of energy. So you're still consuming a lot of resources
@@ccheyenneда, верно. на это требуется больше времени и энергии
I don't know why I clicked on this but I surely do not regret it. That's calming AF
Being able to clean it from pitch black to snow white is incredible, but also being able to walk on top of a rolled up rug without busting your ass is an impressive skill as well.
exactly LOL i for sure would of ate all that floor HAHA
😂😂😂 My sister once did that 😅
If you think im going to sit down and spend 9 minutes of my life watching an ASMR rug cleaning video then you're god damn right.
I can't explain why I just sat here and did just that but I did lol
Say my name
@@kobe24lebron23jordan "my name" 😂😂😂
If you think I am going to sit here and watch 9 minutes of what an FBI agent does to his eyes after viewing your search history then you are right
Driveway power washing is equally tasty
What an amazing transformation. I would never have guessed that was a white rug. How do you find these rugs? I sometimes wonder if the person who threw away the rug you find in trash or landfills recognise their rugs. The fact that you donate them is just the best. 😊
He buys new rugs, dunks them in mud, and cleans them. Not even rugs outdoors would be this dirty.
Apparently he asks for the rugs and does it for free. I do wonder if it's faked, seeing as all of the rugs start out as uniformly black with dirt. It might be nice to see the rest of the process.
I am skeptical, too, but perhaps it's been in one of the awful floods I've been seeing...
He takes them from the trash. These rugs have either been soaked in floodwater or had been sitting in filth and mud for only god knows how long. The people who throw out these rugs are normally the kind of rich people who rather throw out damaged/unwanted furniture and replace them with brand new ones instead of fixing them just because it's more convenient. Let a perfectly good rug sit in the rain and mud for just a few weeks and you get these awful soiled messes. Why do you guys always have to be so cynical? It's just a guy cleaning rugs, ffs.
@@SenshiSunPowerI’ve seen ones so filthy and covered in bugs and other clumps of clay/mud or moldy. I think he gets them donated or from discarded dumps or something. I don’t think they are all staged or planted. Maybe some though
Thanks for showing how you actually found that one. Putting it in context, even though you don't necessarily know how it got that bad, is a nice touch.
Fr Im late to this comment but some of these channels are fake and probably just dump them in mud pits
@@Danielnisbet15 i don't really care about that, all i care for is watching the process of cleaning it, how it got to that point doesn't matter.
Respect to this guy for getting right into the cleaning process while wearing only boots and gloves rather than a full hazmat suit. That rug was NASTY.
Even in shorts 🤣
@@v31.48 Right? Brave soul, I'd be worried about infection control ... 😂
He probably knows that what he used to make it that dirty isn't dangerous
@@KrydolphThere's footage in other videos on this channel showing him pulling rugs out of trash piles on demolition sites etc. But go on believing that it's all faked if you like. Nobody is going to care very much. ;)
yeah there was one that was covered in mold and i was mask he only had a mask and gloves
Lately I've been down and found myself watching these videos. I later realized I was just like one of those dirty rugs, and these videos somehow helped me in my "cleaning" process. I'm fine now, so thank you for sharing!
That's awesome to hear. Happy they helped.
@@MountainRugCleaning It's a bit like watching someone working on their zen garden! Therapeutical.
Jesus with my sins be like:
@@BungRung-mh5in yessir was looking for a comment like this 👏👏
@@holyrollerz7525lame
I FELL ASLEEP FOR 4 HOURS ON THIS WTH THIS IS SOO AMAZING 😂😂😂
This is one of the MOST RELAXING, AMAZING channels out there! THANK YOU!!!
Wow, thank you very much !
I can’t believe there were no stubborn stains. You must have some hardcore cleaning liquids. Fair play x
I'm sure he has quite a few tricks of the trade up his sleeve but fair play, water (especially warm and/or pressurised water) is the finest cleaning solvent known to humankind. Most cleaning liquids really just help the water do its job more effectively via the wonders of Chemistry. :)
I'd soak that rug in running water for 7 days before even begin working on it
It looked like it was likely mud from a flooding event. Mostly just everyday dirt/mud but to an extreme degree.
No damage either. Almost as if a new rug was used as a prop in a KZhead video.
@@drdasslertry @making-things-better if you want realism bro Can't win em all but at least he doesn't use props 😊
I really appreciate the fact that you use the minimum needed water, seeing someone saving water at every step is so wholesome. Bravo!
They are recycling also^^
They are in the UK, so water isn't exactly in short supply there, especially considering that it rains almost every other day.
@@djhagrid300 Depends where in the UK you live. SE England is often very dry!
@@djhagrid300 we do get droughts in the uk too. Everywhere I’ve lived we’ve never been on a water meter though but hosepipe bans and stuff get put in place sometimes.
@@djhagrid300 I don't know much about the uk's weather, but regardless of how readily available water is, it still takes a fair bit of energy to clean it before sending it out to be used by people. Using less still saves energy
When watching somebody else clean a rug is more entertaining than cable TV
Why is this so therapeutic 😅 I enjoy the zoomed in parts, like when Ur pushing the water off and the sounds of the water
I really like watching videos like this. Not only are they satisfying, but also there's something low-key inspiring and touching about how you take these rugs that were going to be thrown away because they were seen as beyond repair, and with some hard work and elbow grease you make them clean and pretty and usable again. And that's beautiful. 💜
All of these videos are faked. They buy new rugs, intentionally dirty them and then make the videos.
That is absolutely amazing. The last color I would have thought that rug was originally was white. It was nasty dirty but you brought it back to life. Good job!!
The comments on these videos are always so deep and sentimental. Like i came here to watch a rug become better but then i get sidetracked by heartwarming life stories and shit
The amount of water he used to clean made Africa jealous
I think it's crazy how much dirt a rug can hold to begin with, let alone that you can get it all out.
I love a challenge but that was night and day. I so enjoy watching your posts. The satisfaction you must get from the transformations has to be so rewarding . I am in awe of your hard work. Love and blessings, Anne Norfolk UK x
Absolutely, i just love seeing the results after all the hard work.
@@MountainRugCleaning Have you considered weighing the rug before and after treatment? I sometimes wonder if its more dirt or carpet..
@@Culpride facts
@@Culpride lol, now I'm curious as well. Of course you'd have to dry it before the final weigh in.
@@DFPercusheight it Drench it and weigh it dirty Clean it then weight it drenched and then again dry I'm curious of a wet clean one weight comparison to dirty and wet and how much weight water adds
I'm not sure why I just sat through a 9+ minute video about cleaning a rug, but I'm glad I did. Super-satisfying stuff.
If you like this content, you are invited to my page. 🙏
I look forward to Friday for 2 reasons. One is I’m one day closer to retirement and two is I know an amazing video is coming out from James. Great work on this one sir!!!
Thankyou 😊
it’s not the end of the journey that matters, but the asmr we made along the way ❤
You are a super smart person who really know how to clean carpet perfectly in a short period of time.Good job, I really enjoy watching the video, thank you very much.
Thanks so much! 😊
i love that he does it all in his garage or something
I hate people just throwing things away. You are saving the environment one rug at a time. We have become too much a throw away society so thank you x
That rug had most likely been thrown out after a flood. Most people only have a limited amout of time and money to expend on recovery after suck an event. You are correct that we have become too much of a throw away society. A lot of that can be traced back to industries that want "customers" to keep returning at a faster pace to by more product. That's achieved by making cheaper products that break sooner and can't be repaired..
Unless he is somehow reusing/recycling water it sure seems like a lot of wasted water.
@@patricksorenson9586 kinda, but that water will be reclaimed in a matter of weeks while the rug will sit for milenia.
You can fin this kind of carpet for 50 cents in second hand... Water waste & time are much more worth.
There's something so satisfying about these videos. I love seeing and hearing the floor and carpet squeegees. I'd love to see him squeegee the dirty floors even more. And in their entirety.
This is one if the best cleaning rug videos I've seen in a while
With all the craziness in the world and immediately surrounding me, your videos always provide the calm in a storm. Keep it up, I appreciate your work.
Glad you like them!
1. “Dirt Reynolds” with giant googly eyes = instant 👍🏻 from me. 😂 2. I really hope you make good money from this video, because that’s a whole lot of time, effort, water, and other tools! Definitely mind-boggling and satisfying to watch.
An enthralling watch, as always; I really love the end of the video when you compare the before and after states of the rug. Amazing, as always!
I love that bit too. I get real satisfaction from seeing it. Im glad you do too
I heard a couple times that in jiu jitsu originally there weren’t colored belts and you got a black belt when you had trained so much with your white belt that it absorbed all the dirt off the mats and became black due to years of not washing out the dirt blood and sweat but I could never imagine how black the dirt could make something like that until now
Watching this I thought to myself "okay no way it's going to be pure white" but MAN was I wrong. And just when I thought it couldn't get any cleaner he just kept going! Amazing!! 😮
I'm amazed it can actually stand up to all this abuse. I mean dirt is usually very damaging to fibers of any kind. Then you're grinding away at it and pressure washing it even. It's amazing it holds together especially after being left out in the elements long enough to get that filthy.
that's what i was thinking too. I watched the whole thing
It must be a high quality rug - the last one I bought off Amazon would have been destroyed by this process. I wonder if he can tell when he picks them out whether they are durable enough to withstand the cleaning.
You’ve probably explained this in another video, but I was wondering why sometimes you let the water pool at the top while you clean? Does it help the cleaning process? Great work as always!
I think it helps carpet to be more brighter color and cleaner
I guess the same reason you would soak a shirt for grass stains before washing it.
It brings as much dirt as possible out of the fibers of the rugs and out of the drain
I’m so Impressed how can they do all that. I love those kinds of videos, keep the good work and I wish you all the best. I always watch those and I sleep. Thanks for the great videos.
Imagine telling someone 20 years ago that this may be what they choose to watch on television. They would think you were insane. Their loss.
I am always amazed at how different you make them look and what an awesome job you do with literally the nastiest carpets I've ever seen
I get so much relaxation and satisfaction watching your videos and am always in awe of the before and after comparisons and the clever entertaining names of your cleaning tools...... I giggle every time i see Dirt Reynolds and R2 Clean2..... Keep up the amazing work..... It's so selfless that you do this and give back by donationating these ...... Really turning trash into treasure. ❤❤❤❤
6:57 bro fr made it look like a pool
I sometimes am amazed at myself to be watching this random video for 10 minutes... what am I doing with my life :X
That has to be best cleaning EVER. I have been waiting for a pure white rug.
I love it when you use different techniques for different kind of rugs. Keep it up!
I didn’t know you found that in the trash ❤😮
I started watching this guy a while back and this is just so satisfying. This man has a lot of work to do, So keep up this great work!
Sorry his name is James and I’m just now seeing his bio. 😂
If you like this content, you are invited to my page. 🙏
It's so satisfying to see something that was thrown away get brought back to life. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for showing where you got this one. I'm astounded at the results, as usual. I love that you are reclaiming beautiful rugs that others thought were rubbish.
I just read your "about" information. Wow. Bless you for your hard work and compassion! You have warmed my heart and soul. ❤
You are definitely the best and by far the cleanest rug restorer ! Bravo !
As always, a pleasure to watch this transformations. It really amazes me how durable can rugs really be.
It's amazing to see how you clean up this rug so it's not sent to a dump but I hope you're recycling all that water you're using. So chill to sit and watch the transformation.
Yes its all recycled
Didn't know I needed a rug cleaning video in my life today... yet here we are!
The rug quality is elite to stand up to this level of cleaning
I swear you should make a video game or team up with a video game company. Your really good at what you do and if there was a good video game to do this, I would be sitting there all day just cleaning rugs. It’s so satisfying but any rug cleaning games either you have to pay for it or there are loads of ads. Anyone else agree with me?
Maybe one day!
Power wash simulator on Steam is similar! It's not specifically rugs but it is powerwashing
I love when he sweeps all that funky water out and into the drains. Very relieving.
Who knew watching a carpet getting cleaned could be so satisfying
You've taken rug cleaning to an art form.
I like it when you put notes on the screen of what you are putting on the rugs, the chemicals and why.
James, that is amazing and I am so very glad to know that there is someone in the good auld British Isles that cares enough about a discarded quality rug, to restore it as you have. Brilliant mate. It is clearly very well made. We have a beautiful rug (wool pile Clarendon 15mm thick) right in front of me as I write this, made in India. I bought it new twenty years ago and it is treasured beyond anything else. As ‘The Dude’ would say, “It really ties the room together!” I would love to have you clean it but you would fall in love with it too and I might never see it again. Best regards from the Giant’s Causeway Coast of Northern Ireland. 😄👍☘️
Watching this to distract me from the big foot lurking around my house really helps thanks man.
I love how you take your time with the manual scrubbing 😊

You do washing very well👍🏻😊
Do you have a Tegram channel?
Another fantastic clean 🤍🤍 I thought if you put your green brush on Dirk, when the rug is under water, you can spin wash it! 😂also yay to the shorts🩵🩵
its impressive yes,but whats the cost of a job like that?
The amount of dirt that came off was truly disgusting. I’m surprised you could even get it to come clean. You did, though. Beautiful!
7:39 i love this part
It’s absolutely insane the sheer amount of dirt a rug can hold
I always wonder what the former owners must have done with these rugs to make them this dirty. Great job, James! Oh and i wonder - why did you flood your working space for Dirt Reynolds at 6:50? was there a specific reason?
Flooding a rug in water help the dirt coming out, and its more efficient with Dirt Reynolds ^^
He usually floods it for thick rugs, it helps cleaning it deep within the pile.
@@LWLProductions Maybe it was involved in a flood, that would get it plenty dirty.
Thank you for this time lapse version, James! ❤
Even though I saw it with my own eyes I still can’t comprehend the amount of dirt that can be in a rug It feels like it shouldn’t be possible
This guys set up is so perfect!
I don’t know how you do it man. These transformations are crazy! Keep it up!
thankyou 👍
Simplesmente PERFEITO! Trouxe uma paz de espírito imensa. Amo seus vídeos. ❤🇧🇷
This is my favorite one yet, especially when he rolled up the rug & stepped on it!
Wow, this transformation is truly mesmerizing! 😮👏
u don't Need an oscar...AN OSCAR NEEDS U🏅🏆👏🏻
The most recent Golden Globes was a complete ratings bust. Maybe they need to start recruiting content creators like Mountain Rug Cleaners.
Please make them longer! Like 30 mins? ❤
Hello, You are a member. You get access to the uncut versions of the videos :)
If I hadn’t seen the video I never would have believed the before and after photo! Wow!
1:37 I love how there's googly eyes on the vacuum
I'll admit, at this point I'm starting to wonder if you get people to dirty these rugs on purpose. But even if you do, I can't see a way to fake the cleaning process. You're definitely a master at it either way.
They can dig some landfills to promote their cleaning services, but it could more commonly be as a result of flooding.
B L E A C H (Hotel Towels use bleach, they will look nasty if ypu take them)
I absolutely love your videos and the miracles you pull off every time. Though I'm a tiny bit sad you cut out a bit more than usual 😅
wow it looks like the place was almost flooded when you where transforming !
I think my favorite part about all of this (aside from the crazy transformations) is Dirt Reynolds. Those giant googly eyes just make me giggle every time.
I need someone to do this to my brain
There’s more effort in putting this video together than cleaning the actual rug 👍
I can watch these videos for hours😂
A remarkable transformation. While I'm all for not throwing things away, I have to ask: how much would a new rug (like kind and quality) cost and how much do you charge for cleaning it?
yeah why is this rug worth all the effort and how can you even tell when its that dirty
As a guy who has cleaned thousands of rugs/carpets I say good job on the restoration of this one. That said though I have to wonder after all the washes and scrubbing how long would this thing last without fibers and backing coming apart? If it was really well made and fairly new it might last a little while. Secondly, you have to wonder is it worth it to waste that much water and time getting that thing clean? Obviously you are good at what you do but when do you say it's not worth the resources and time?
I would probably guess it's really only worth it due to the income from these videos. From just the cleaning to value perspective, it's a wash.
This man did every trick in the book to entire the rug is as good as new!
Oh wow! You found a rug underneath all that dirt!
I hate to think what was living in that rug...🐀🕷🐌🐜💩😅 & never would never have believed it would turn out sparkling white! Well done James & gadgets!! 😁
Thankyou ! 😊
I'd love to see a weight comparison of before/after. Its awesome to see it so clean but how much crud was actually in there you know?
I feel you, like you know it’s clean, but you want to quantify how much junk was removed
This is incredibly satisfying to watch.
Even the tags come out beautiful 💜🙏💜🕊️🫶
my mom explaining why I shouldn't lay on the floor:
Love the special pit you use for cleaning. Did your company create that, or is it industry exclusive?
I have watched a lot of these videos and never saw anyone put it under water like that to soak it and scrub it impressive
i wish someone cared for me as much as this rug bruh
.. and yet I still can’t get a ketchup stain out of my t-shirt 🙄
I think I like this one better than all the rugs with designs on them... this was amazing.
