Tips on
Carpet Care
Their are two types damages that occur to carpets
The first, which is Soiling:-
Soiling occurs when loose dirt, food and other particles
from the atmosphere settles onto the carpet. If
left too long it may become entrenched in the pile,
causing damage or permanent staining.
This can be removed by sweeping or, better still,
vacuuming regularly. At least three time a week.
The second, which is Staining:-
Staining of a carpet is far more serious and requires
prompt action to remove the spillage, as well as
the proper application of the correct cleaning materials
and methods.
Set up a simple and regular
maintenance programme to clean your carpets.
- Vacuum regularly
The most important routine in caring for your
carpet. It prevents dust build-up and damage from
rigid particles.
- Steam clean periodically
The frequency will depend on the amount of traffic
and soiling - normally every year or two we recommend
that you call in a professional
- Remove spots and spills immediately
Before cleaning find out exactly what has been
spilt and what fibre the carpet is made from.
Use small quantities of the right shampoo or chemicals
to avoid overwetting the carpet and work the stain
from the edge inwards to prevent it spreading.
Blot the carpet pile, rather than rubbing it.
Rinse the treated area with clean water and blot
out any excess. Avoid walking on the damp area
to prevent quick re-soiling.
Take Preventative Measures
- Use walk-off mats at all entrances and clean
them often
- Move heavy furniture occasionally to minimise
pile crushing and change traffic patterns in a
room
- Use castor protectors or carpet off-cuts under
heavy furniture
- Protect your carpet from prolonged periods
of direct sunlight, with blinds or curtains
- Avoid using household chemicals, medicines
and cosmetics over your carpet - they can permanently
stain or bleach your carpet.
