You may be regularly finding time in your busy schedule to clean the carpets in your house using a vacuum. However, you notice that your efforts are not sufficient to clean the carpets completely. There is still dust, dirt and stains in the carpets bothering. You may be wondering what would be the ideal way to clean the carpets so as to have a spotless carpet and a healthy living atmosphere. We at Glory Clean today discuss ways to maintain a fresh and spotless carpet.
Vacuum Regularly
You may be thinking as vacuuming is not so effective in cleaning the carpet, you should stop the endeavour. No, that will not be proper. It will help to remove a part of the dust, dirt and allergens which if not removed daily will become deep-rooted and add to the problem. If possible use a vacuum having HEPA filters as it traps fine particles and allergens.
Address Spills and Stains Immediately
It is impossible to avoid stains on carpets from spills. If you notice a spill, address it immediately before it becomes a permanent stain. It is wise to blot and not rub the spill. You can use a homemade stain remover to remove the stain. However, if that does not work call us for professional carpet cleaning.
Use Doormats and Remove Shoes
If you wish to reduce the amount of dust and dirt accumulated in your carpets, use doormats and remove shoes before entering the room. You need to ask your family members and guests to abide by this rule to remove shoes before entering. This habit will help to prolong the life of the carpet.
Rotate Furniture Periodically
You must have noticed that heavy furniture leaves indentations on carpets and cause uneven wear. It is wise to rearrange the furniture at intervals to avoid these issues. You can also use pads under the furniture legs to distribute the weight evenly and protect the carpet fibres.
Deep Clean Your Carpets Regularly
You need to call us to have a professional deep cleaning of the carpets. This will help to eliminate the deep-rooted contaminants which regular vacuuming is unable to remove. We use steam cleaning and hot water extraction to remove these contaminants. After our service, the carpets will look and feel fresh and new.
Maintain Proper Ventilation
Good air circulation helps prevent moisture build-up, which can lead to mould and mildew growth in carpets. Open windows regularly and use dehumidifiers in humid environments to keep carpets dry and fresh.
Use Carpet Protectors
Carpet protectors, such as area rugs and runners, can help shield high-traffic areas from excessive wear and stains. Additionally, applying a stain-resistant treatment can provide an extra layer of protection against spills and dirt.
Maintaining fresh and spotless carpets requires a combination of regular vacuuming, prompt stain removal, and professional deep cleaning. By following these simple yet effective tips, you can preserve the beauty and longevity of your carpets, ensuring a cleaner and healthier home for you and your family.
