Over time your carpets and rugs appearance deteriorates and becomes less attractive. This is due to abrasive soils becoming imbedded in your carpet or rug, which can cause damage to the fibers and reduces the carpet or rugs life. Therefore, establish a regular maintenance schedule that includes professional cleaning.
Commandments of Carpet Care
• Vacuum frequently and thoroughly. Most of carpet wear is caused by dirt. Oily soils attract more oily soil and frequent vacuuming will reduce soil buildup. Vacuum high-traffic areas daily, less-traveled spots at least twice a week
• Institute a no-dirt policy. A no-shoes rule is always effective, but you should definitely make sure there are doormats at each entrance to your home. Clean the mats regularly so they don't become sources of soil themselves.
• If furniture rests on the carpet, be sure it gets moved occasionally and that you use coasters under the furniture's legs.
• Get at stains quickly; the longer a stain chemically reacts with the carpet the harder it will be to remove it. Common stains usually don’t require any liquid cleaners stronger than water. Use as little water as possible and blot them clean instead of rubbing or brushing.
• Bring professional cleaners in regularly. The commercial grade equipment we use gets the deeply imbedded dirt out and will make your carpet last longer. It is a good practice to have
them cleaned every six months if you have
children, and every 12 to 18 months if you don't.
