Carpet

Daily & Weekly Care

  • Vacuum Regularly:

    This is the most crucial step, removing dust, dirt, and debris before they embed in the fibers and cause wear. Vacuum high-traffic areas at least twice a week and less-used areas once a week. 

     
  • Use Doormats:

    Place mats at all entrances to trap dirt and moisture from shoes. 

     
  • Take Off Shoes:

    Implement a no-shoes policy indoors to significantly reduce the amount of dirt tracked onto your carpets. 

     
  • Groom the Carpet:

    Use a carpet rake or brush to lift matted fibers in high-traffic areas, which helps with vacuuming effectiveness. 

Dealing with Spills & Stains

 
  • Act Quickly:

    Address spills and spots as soon as they happen. 

     
  • Blot, Don’t Rub:

    Use a clean, white cloth or paper towel to blot liquids, working from the outside of the spill inward. 

     
  • Remove Solids First:

    Scrape any semi-solid substances with a spatula or spoon before treating the area with liquid. 

     
  • Test Cleaning Products:

    Before using any spot-cleaning product, test it in an inconspicuous area of the carpet first to ensure it doesn’t cause discoloration.  

Preventative Maintenance

  • Rotate Furniture:

    Regularly rotate furniture to distribute wear and prevent heavy furniture from causing permanent indentations. 

     
  • Use Furniture Pads:

    Place pads under furniture legs to protect the carpet fibers from dents and tears. 

     
  • Deep Clean Professionally:

    Have your carpets professionally cleaned every 12 to 18 months to remove embedded dirt and grime. 

     
  • Control Humidity: In damp weather, consider using dehumidifiers to prevent excessive moisture buildup that can affect your carpets.

Regular Maintenance 
  • Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt.
  • Wipe up spills promptly to avoid stains. 
  • Wash your floor as needed with a cloth and warm water, for a more thorough clean use soft brushes or consult a professional carpet cleaner. Rugs can be wet cleaned outside. 
  • Do not use dish washing liquids or detergent soap cleaners, they can leave a sticky residue which attracts soil and causes a reduction of gloss. 
  • Rinse with water after alkaline solution is used.
