Carpet Maintenance Tips

Use Entry Mats
Most soil that gets into your home comes from your shoes. A good mat will prevent most soil and debris from entering your home and ultimately your carpeting. These mats will also help keep your hard surface floors cleaner. To keep your carper clean, we need to keep the dirt outside.
Reduce Traffic
To prolong the appearance and overall life of your carpet, reduce the amount of traffic in heavily traveled, carpeted areas, as these areas will receive the most wear. Use rugs under and in front of heavily used furniture such as chairs, and clean these rugs on a regular basis.
Frequent Vacuuming is Key
Because vacuuming helps remove dirt particles which can degrade and dull the appearance of carpets and rugs, carpets should be vacuumed at least once a week with sufficient suction and airflow, it will be able to brush the carpet nap and help it stand up properly. As a result, this will provide carpet that is both newer-looking and easier to clean.
Quick reaction on stains
Even with the utmost of care, carpet staining is inevitable. Therefore, it is important to understand that when spills occur, time is of the essence, don’t try to rub it, Take some hot water at first and blot it. This will clean most of the basic stains. If that does not work then research a cleaning product that is designed to get up the exact substance that was spilled on the carpet.
