5 Easy Steps To Make Your Carpets Look New for Many Years

Home Improvement 20:36 If you’re like most people, then you probably paid quite a bit of money for your carpet, so you want it to look as good as new for as long as possible. This is a perfectly reasonable frame of mind – and fairly easy to do, thanks to these five easy steps from carpet allen tx.

1) Don’t Let the Dirt Come In

This is the easiest solution. There’s nothing wrong with making your guests, as well as your family members, take their shoes off before entering your home. Place a mat or two near the entrance and remind people to remove their shoes and keep them on that mat while they’re in your home. The lack of shoes will keep dirt and debris out and will add to the lifespan of your carpeting.

2) Run the Vacuum A Lot

Vacuuming is a chore that few people enjoy. However, it’s the best way to keep your carpeting looking like new. You don’t have to vacuum every day unless you have pets, but you should do so at least three to four times a week. The more that you vacuum, the cleaner your floors will be and the longer your carpeting will last. Also, make sure that you have the vacuum on the right setting for the specific pile and thickness of your carpeting. This is important.

3) Do Some Spot Cleaning

Your carpet could always use some spot cleaning. While you should call in the professionals for large cleaning jobs, you can handle that basic spot cleaning on your own. Just get some carpet spray and follow the instructions. It will take care of most small stains before they have a chance to set in. Remember that nothing ages a carpet quite like a number of small (and large) stains sprinkled all over it. Take care of them as they happen and everything will be fine. 4) Move Your Furniture around Regularly

Yes, moving the furniture is a pain in the rear, but look at it this way: the two main causes of carpet breakdown are constant foot traffic in the same areas and the weight from your furniture pushing down on the fibers. By rearranging things in the room every few months – and the changes don’t need to be drastic  -you’re prolonging your carpet’s lifespan. It will also age evenly.

5) Hire Professionals to Clean Your Floors

At least once a year (but ideally every six months) you should call in some professional carpet cleaners. They’ll bring in their steam cleaning equipment and get out dirt and debris that you didn’t even know was in there. These experts know what they’re doing and have access to more powerful equipment than the average homeowner. They can really make your carpeting look like it’s new again. The six months or a year measurement is the average. Keep in mind that if you have pets, you may want to have this done every three months.
