How to Remove Stains from Carpets?
Any material can be stained at any point but some flooring materials deal with stains better i.e. when stained, they can be easily cleaned off as they do not absorb the stain. This is however different for carpets as they easily absorb moisture. In the case that your carpet has been stained, the best thing to do is to attend to the stain immediately and try to remove it with the aid of a vacuum cleaner. Agents like vinegar, ammonia, Hydrogen peroxide can be used to clean stubborn stains. If none of these cleaning methods work, you can contact a professional cleaning service to help out with the stain.
Carpet Maintenance
Maintenance is what helps to improve the lifespan of the flooring material. No matter how durable it is, if it is not properly maintained, chances are that it would get worn out and would need repair or restoration services in no time. To make sure that your carpet lasts as long as it possibly can, you should clean it every day with a vacuum cleaner, have it cleaned professionally every year, make sure that stains are not left on it for a long time.
