Carpets and rugs of every colour and material can bring great comfort and style to your home, especially in living areas where you settle down with the family to relax and enjoy each other’s company. However, carpets can quickly become dirty and unappealing when they are left unattended for too long, and can also contain several allergens which may cause health issues.

From being smelly and unattractive to incubating health concerns, your carpets can cause significant discomfort and trouble for your family.

How Often Should Carpets Be Professionally Cleaned

In most cases, carpets in residential properties should be professionally cleaned every 12 to 18 months. However, this timeframe is only a guideline, as every home is different, and cleaning frequency is largely dependent on your lifestyle, the number of occupants in the home, pets, and other factors, such as stains and excessive odours. 

Carpets are a large part of the look and feel of your home and are also a significant monetary investment, so naturally, you want them to last as long as possible. Fortunately, regular deep cleaning preserves your carpets and keeps them aesthetically pleasing and healthier for longer.

Carpet Cleaning Tips For Every Homeowner

What do you do when you accidentally spill something on your recently cleaned carpet and your next deep cleaning is months away? Follow these tips to help you keep your carpets clean in between professional cleanings: 

1. Vacuum at least once to twice a week. It may sound like a lot of effort, but by regularly vacuuming your carpets, you can reduce the amount of dirt accumulation, and better manage their condition. 
2. Respond to spills immediately. The longer a substance is left to seep into the carpet, the more it will stain and the more difficult it will be to remove. If something spills, blot the area using a paper towel or a white cloth and use the carpet cleaner you have on hand. Even better, check with experts as to the correct method for treating the type of stain you have as stains caused by varying agents may need to be treated differently.
