Regular Carpet Care

The biggest key to effective carpet care is vacuuming! Vacuum your carpet as frequently as possible with an appropriate model to remove abrasive particles that can wear carpet fibers down and dull the appearance. Preventative carpet care includes using mats at all entranceways, having footwear removed at the door, brushing pets regularly, keeping all pet nails trimmed, and house-training pets before they spend time on carpet.

Treating Spills & Stains on Carpet

When a spill occurs on your carpet, treat it as promptly as possible to prevent permanent stains from forming:

  • Gently lift any solid material with a spoon.
  • Blot the spill with a clean, dry cloth, starting from the perimeter of the stain and working to the center.
  • Use a gentle carpet-specific cleaner to spot treat the spill as needed.
  • We recommend 1-2 professional carpet cleanings annually to remove residual spills.
