Regular home carpet cleaning is key to removing stains, keeping your carpet looking its best for as long as possible, and removing dirt, dust, and allergens that build up in carpet fibers over time. There is nothing like coming home to professionally cleaned carpet after a home carpet cleaning appointment, but how do you maintain these results in between visits?
While you can’t replace the results you get with professional home carpet cleaning, there are several things you can do to make your carpets look their best in between professional cleaning appointments:
- Vacuum on a regular basis to remove dirt, dust, allergens, and other buildup from your carpet. Aim to vacuum at least once a week and more often in areas that get a lot of traffic.
- When something spills on or stains your carpet, clean it up as quickly as possible. This will prevent the stain from settling into your carpet fibers and becoming permanent.
- Put doormats by all the entrances to your home. This will keep some of the dirt and debris from getting tracked into your home and getting into your carpet.
- While not feasible for every home, consider instituting a “no shoes” policy in your home. This can keep the dirt that people bring in on their shoes from going directly onto your carpet.
By taking these steps and making regular home carpet cleaning a priority, you can keep your home’s carpet looking its best for as long as possible. For more information about professional home carpet cleaning and what it involves, contact us today.
