How often should you have your
carpets cleaned? Good quality carpets are a major
investment and it pays you to look after them… but just how often they should
be cleaned depends on your household. Every household is unique! The number of
adults, children and pets in the home is a major consideration, as the more
feet, the more soil! Many other factors including the type
of carpet, type of soil and even your ventilation system all go to determine
what is best for your particular household, which is why we conduct a ‘Healthy Home Carpet
Evaluation.
Carpet cleaning evaluation
On an Evaluation we will look at all the facts, and not make
assumptions. For example if you took two homes next door to each – one
belonging to a young family with pets at home most of the day, and the other
home the same size, but owned by a young professional couple, out most of the
day and evening – the difference in cleaning would be vast!
As a guide to help answer the question, the ‘Textile Cleaning
Standard’ from the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration
Certification (IICRC) the worlds
leading body on textile cleaning have produced a report.
They have worked with fibre producers, carpet manufactures and the
Environmental Protection Agency in America and here in the UK to give a guide
to the frequency of carpet cleaning in the home. Remember
you shouldn’t wait for your carpet to look dirty before you clean it… its
important to keep your ‘filters’ clean so they can look after your family!
The one thing we can recommend is that you look at a planned maintenance
programme. We will keep your ‘clean carpets clean’ and leave you to
get on enjoying your life! Use the correct filtered vacuum
cleaner regularly to reduce dust in the home and have a planned maintenance
programme with professional cleaning.
