Facts About Carpet Cleaning

By Suzanne Herrman


We all want to live in a perfectly clean home, but there are definitely a few areas of our home that it is difficult to deep clean on our own. Carpet cleaning is one example of a job for which you need to hire a professional. Not only will a Denham Spring carpet cleaning service do a more thorough job, they will have the job done quite quickly leaving you with a home that is truly clean and fresh.

You don't have to accomplish a ton of prep work prior to a carpet cleaning visit. Your cleaners will move the large pieces of furniture for you, so you simply need to remove any smaller items such as floor lamps and plants that rest on the carpet or flooring. It's also a good idea to do a quick clean under your beds and sofas, as many items end up in these dusty spaces.

While your carpets might be a tad damp after the cleaning crew has finished, most of the water will have been removed from your carpeting, so there is no reason to stay out of your home until the carpeting is totally dry. Turn on household fans, your air conditioner or your heater to speed up the drying process and don't wear shoes on your carpets. As a general rule, wearing shoes is definitely one of the fastest ways to get your carpets dirty, so after a deep cleaning, consider making it a house rule that everyone goes barefoot or wears house shoes rather than sneakers and street shoes in the house.

Many times people simply call in professional cleaners because they want their home to look better and smell fresher, but that is just a side benefit of carpet cleaning. The main benefit of cleaning is that it can protect your health. Dirty carpet is full of all sorts of undesirables, such as fungi, dust mites, bacteria and even viruses. The norovirus, which causes what we call the stomach flu, can live in your carpeting for more than a month. Cleaning removes all of these toxins, so calling in your professional Denham Springs carpet cleaners twice each year can be a big way to improving your health.

One thing that can make your carpet unattractive is a bad stain, but just about everything really can be removed if you accidently stain your carpeting. The trick is to treat the stained area immediately and to use the proper cleaning equipment, which might be a simple spray of ice cold water, a mix of white vinegar and water or perhaps some other substance. If you aren't sure how to remove a stain, give your carpet cleaner a call or perhaps browse the internet for tips about removing a specific type of stain from your specific type of carpeting.

In between the cleanings, you can keep your carpets clean by careful vacuuming. Vacuum all of your carpets and rugs every week, including the edge areas of your carpet. If an area has a lot of people walking around during the week, consider vacuuming this area at least two times per week. Keep your outside shoes by the door and keep your dogs' paws as clean as possible to limit the excess dirt.
