Nikwax/rug reproofing

[loz9]

Hi, does anyone know where the cheapest place to buy nikwax rug wash & rug proof online is?
I was a little shocked to find my local rug cleaning service wanted to charge me almost £20 to wash & reproof my lightweight turnout! I could buy a new one for about £5 more!! How much do your local rug laundry charge? Is mine really as excessive as I feel?
Thanks

I charge £14 for a wash and re-proof using Nikwax. My prices havent gone up in the last 2 yrs and I think its value for money. Sometimes the rugs dont come clean so they will get a second or even a third wash. Its quite a lengthy and messy process and I think I offer value for money. Rugs only go back when I am satisfied they are of a standard I would be pleased with if I were the customer.

I have about 15 to do so for me it is DIY.

I don't find they need re-proofing is washed with a tech wash designed for breathable fabrics.

A bottle costing £6 does about 3/4 washes
