Introducing Ask the Expert: our new rug cleaning/repair resource

Published: March 29, 2012

The Kermans Advantage starts with people

Since 1921, people have come into our door expecting to find a wide variety of beautiful floor coverings. They keep coming back because of the service they receive. When you visit our store, you’ll find the leading names in floor covering but most importantly, you’ll find honest advice from our people. We will ask where you live, about your lifestyle and how many people are in your family because we understand that you’re not just looking for floor covering – you’re looking to enhance the value of your home and the quality of your life.

Reaching out to customers; answering questions; sharing knowledge – that’s one of the things the employees of Kermans enjoy most about their job. It’s also one of the reasons we’ve added a new feature to our website called Ask the Expert.

Meet our rug cleaning & repair expert: Mike Bragg

Mike has completed specialized training in the cleaning and repair of area rugs. He spends his days cleaning, restoring and repairing rugs of all sizes and materials. Whether it’s replacing fringe by hand or spot dying rugs to cover worn areas, he’s got his hands full.
His advice for your rug? All area rugs should be cleaned regularly. Certainly older, handmade rugs that are treated more like works of art but even more modern, machine-made rugs will last longer if they are professionally cleaned every 1-3 years. Over time, dirt builds up in the rug and can rub irreversible traffic patterns – you can literally walk the color out of your rug if you don’t remove the dirt regularly. 
Mike has been with Kermans since 2011. He enjoys the people he works with and the chance to meet new people. “It’s nice having a job where I’m not cooped up in an office all day. I like meeting new people and helping them.” When he’s not working you’ll find Mike enjoying music or cheering on his favorite sports team, the Indiana Hoosiers.

Mike is an important part of the Kermans Advantage – unparalleled service and knowledge backs up every sale. Whether you are carpeting a family room in Noblesville, putting tile in your Zionsville kitchen or looking for an area rug for your first home in Fishers, you’ll experience the same attention, care and exceptional result. Learn more about Kermans.

Don’t just take our word for it, visit our showroom on Indianapolis’ northside – designed with interior design in mind.
