Vancouver Carpet Cleaning: The Ultimate Carpet Care Guide

May 14th, 2018 | by Angelo |    0   

Stains happen. It’s dealing with them that really matters. As a Vancouver carpet cleaning company, Angelo’s FabriClean knows a thing or two about carpets—and these experience cleaning technicians are happy to share some tips to make carpet care faster and more straightforward.

Filling a spray bottle with a mix of dishwashing liquid and warm water is an old standby, but there’s a way to improve the technique. After spraying and blotting the stain away, keep a second spray bottle filled with cold water on hand. Use this to rinse and blot away the leftover solution.

To make sure every last drop of water is drawn out, lay down some paper towels on the spot and place something heavy on top (like a pot). It’ll draw up any residue left over overnight. Then in the morning, just fluff up the carpet and allow it to air dry.

Of course, there are situations where even the most rigorous DIY treatments can’t save the day. And in those cases it's time to call in the pros. Just remember that maintenance is just as important as cleaning—everyday care is what will determine how much investment carpet cleaning will require later.

Some simple tips to reduce wear and tear include refreshing high traffic areas with a foam carpet cleaner between major carpet cleanings. This can put a bit of spring back in the fibres and prevent them from turning into a packed-down path.

Strive to keep the dirt outside—for example, implement a no-shoes rule in the house. Instead, keep some slippers on hand for everyone (including guests), and remember to have a mat outside to wipe away outside debris. Also, remember that interior doormats can only stop dirt properly if they’re clean, so remember to vacuum and wash them regularly.
