CARPET CARE

Proper care and maintenance are essential for preserving your carpet's beauty and longevity. Follow our expert tips to keep your floors looking and feeling their best for years to come.

Routine Carpet Care

Regular vacuuming is crucial for removing dirt, dust, and debris that can damage your carpet fibers. Vacuum your carpet frequently, especially in high-traffic areas.

For added protection:

  • Use doormats: Place mats at all entrances to your home to catch dirt and debris before it gets tracked onto your carpet.
  • Remove shoes: Encourage people to remove their shoes before entering your home to minimize the amount of dirt and grit brought inside.
  • Protect high-traffic areas: Use runners or area rugs in high-traffic areas to protect your carpet from excessive wear and tear.
  • Move furniture regularly: Periodically move furniture to prevent deep indentations in the carpet.
  • Professional cleaning: Schedule regular professional carpet cleanings to remove deep-seated dirt and allergens.

Carpet Spills & Stains

No matter how careful you are, accidents happen. If you spill food or liquids on your carpet, act quickly to prevent stains. Blot up excess liquid with a clean, absorbent cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this can push the stain deeper into the fibers. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area of the carpet before applying it to the stain. For stubborn stains, consult your manufacturer's guide for recommended products and methods to avoid damage or voiding your warranty.
