It’s a phrase you’ve heard a gazillion time: home is the best place to be. Have you ever taken a good look at the carpeting in your house? The carpet absorbs everything, even coffee spills and dirt. The results of carpet cleaning can be incredible. Get started.
Let’s begin by cleaning the everyday dirt.
Imagine inviting your friends over. Then, unknowingly, the guests walk in through the front entrance and bring in some outside air. Leaves and dirt can be an issue. Within a short time, these tiny invaders are settling into your carpet’s fibres. While a quick vacuuming is good, you are sweeping dirt under your carpet. Deep cleaning or not? This is where the magic happens.
It’s not pleasant to walk on carpets smelling of the meal from yesterday. Has a guest pointed out a smell that was not pleasant? Embarrassing, right? Baking soda may be your best friend. Sprinkle some baking soda, let it rest for a few moments, and vacuum. Voila! Fresh as daisies.
Are you a parent? Prepare yourself for a rollercoaster if stains. You’ll find crayons, juices, and possibly even pet accidents. Blot, don’t rub. Vinegar and water can be used to fix a wine spill quickly. Have you ever tried club soda for wine spills? It’s almost as if you have a hero inside a glass — zap!
There is always someone in the family who insists shoes are worn indoors. Apparently, the South is well-known for its footwear. What about carpets, and footwear? This isn’t the best pair. Shoes are a source of oil and exhaust particles, which can penetrate the skin. Create an area without shoes. A cute basket that holds slippers will be both useful and welcome.
Professional cleaning. You may think it is a luxury. Imagine it as an investment. Consider it as an investment. You’ll discover dirt you didn’t even know existed. It’s a good idea to do this at least once every month.
Enjoy a family film night on your carpet. This carpet was ruined by spills, popcorn and laughter. You can’t imagine your life without it. It’s not something you can replace at any time, like furniture.
Oriental rugs, shaggy carpets and all other types are available. Each type has its own peculiarities. Although shabby carpets might take you back to 1970s, can they be cleaned properly? What a mess. It’s more complicated than a simple vacuum. Use your imagination. Use a broom and shake out the rug. Handwashing even the most delicate and beautiful oriental rugs can be better than machine washing.
Gran would tell us: “A clean, tidy home will make you happy.” What’s the answer? She made a good point. Your spirits will be lifted by cleaning your carpets. Remember those old ads for Febreze? It’s hard to deny their truth. If your carpets smell fresh and clean, you will be more comfortable at home.
The right vacuum to choose is like selecting a partner. The right model may not be available for your carpet. You can ask your friends for their opinions. HEPA filters are worth the investment if you have the money. These filters trap more dust and allergens.
You don’t need a PhD in order to choose the best cleaning solution. Check for eco labels. You will be helping Mother Nature as well as the environment.
It is similar to the handling of a giant Octopus. Ask for a demo when renting. These can be difficult to use and you don’t want your home to flood.
Imagine the satisfaction you will feel when you tackle carpet grime. Your carpet will thank you for brushing out tangled hair and washing off stubborn makeup.
Take the plunge and let your fibers sparkle.
