Time to Have Your Carpet Cleaned

Is your carpet stained, matted, or just generally looking a little worse for wear? Are you embarrassed to have company over because of it?

If so, you might be due for a professional cleaning. Sometimes, a thorough cleaning is all your need to get your carpet looking — and smelling — like new. If any of the signs discussed below apply to you, it may just be time for a professional carpet cleaning.

It Hasn’t Been Cleaned in Over A Year

When was the last time you had your carpets cleaned? Even if you’re careful about spills and don’t let your kids wear shoes in the house, your carpets still collect a lot of dirt and dust that should be regularly removed by a professional.

When it comes to carpet cleaning, a general rule is that it should be professionally cleaned at least once a year.

If it’s been longer than a year, you should definitely contact a carpet cleaning service, especially if you have pets or small children running around. Regular cleanings will extend the lifespan of your carpet, make day-to-day maintenance easier, and improve your home’s overall appearance.

You’re Having Allergy Problems

If you’ve noticed that your indoor allergies have gotten worse, you might be due for a professional carpet cleaning.

Carpets collect a lot of dust, dirt, pet dander, and other allergens, even if you’re vacuuming them regularly. The slightest movement — like sitting on or walking across the carpet — can disturb these allergens and send them into the air, where they can circulate for several hours before settling back down again.

To get rid of some of this build-up and improve your allergy symptoms, you should get your carpets cleaned as soon as possible.

It’s Looking Dull or Dirty

When you look at and walk across your carpet every day, you get used to the way it looks. You might not think your carpet looks bad, but a furniture test can let you know how dull or dirty it really is.

Move a piece of furniture that hasn’t been moved in a while, and take a look at the carpet underneath. Does it look lighter, fluffier, and cleaner, especially compared to the carpet surrounding it?

Professional cleaning can help get all the dirt out of your carpet and lift it back up again so that it looks as good as new!

It’s Stained

There are some types of stains, including pet stains and ink stains, that you will definitely need a professional’s help to remove. Sometimes soap and water just won’t cut it.

In addition to improving the appearance of your carpet, you also protect it from future damage when you have tough spots and stains professionally removed.
