How to keep your carpets looking and smelling fresh
Carpets can be an expensive investment and you don’t want to spend all that money on new carpets just for them to look drab and smell like mildew after just a few months. So to retain their freshness for years and years to come you’re going to have to make a conscious effort to care for your carpets.
Below are four tips to help you achieve this:
1.BAN SHOES:
Getting family members & visitors to remove their shoes at the front door is one of the best things to do to care for your carpets. This will stop dirt and mess being carried into your home and soiling your carpets.
2. VACUUM REGULARY:
To keep your carpets looking clean at all times it’s essential that you vacuum them at least two to three times a week. This will not only pick up dirt, but it will ensure that the dirt isn’t trodden deep into your carpets and will lift the pile of your carpet, but it is also important that you use the correct vacuum for your specific carpet.
3. SPOT CLEANING:
If a spillage happens on your carpet it is important that you deal with it immediately by dabbing the spillage with white kitchen roll and follow our guide to remove a red wine spillage.
4. PROFESSIONAL CARPET CLEANING:
It is important to have your carpets professionally cleaned at least once a year but this depends on how much use your carpet gets in that time. Carpets act as a filter holding dust mites, food particles, human dead skin cells etc and by having them cleaned this will eradicate these problems, deodorises the carpets and revitalises the carpet pile.
