Rug Cleaning – Rug Cleaning Tips





Author: oriental rug care

Rugs can be functional, decorative or both. They can even be works of art, but they all have one thing in common – They need to be cleaned, and cleaned in the correct way according to the type of rug you have, and at the correct frequency.

 

Vacuuming

 

Proper vacuuming is the first and best way to begin caring for your rug, and to help improve the quality of the air you breathe inside your home. Vacuuming is a very effective and environmentally friendly first stage of cleaning – It removes surface dirt and dust particles before they have a chance to get ground into the rug\'s body and fibers.

 

The frequency of your vacuuming depends upon the amount of foot traffic your carpet has, but every rug or carpet should be vacuumed at least once a week. For carpets in very high-traffic areas, you may need to vacuum every day, or at least every other day, twice a week in medium-traffic areas. When you are doing your weekly ‘whole house\' vacuum, remember to get the vacuum attachments out, and give special attention to all the room corners and carpet edges, where the largest amount of dirt and dust accumulates

 

Clean spots and spills straight away!

 

The quicker you act, the better the result. Immediately you see the spill, blot it immediately with plain white paper towels or some other absorbent white cloth. Start at the outside of the spill and work inwards to prevent it from spreading. Continue until you see no more evidence coming onto your blotting cloth, scooping any solids or semi-solids up with a spoon. Never scrub or use a brush! This can damage the rug fibers and result in fraying or a noticeable change in texture I that spot.

 

To clean the spot or spill, try to use a cleaner that is approved by the Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI) and follow the directions very closely. If you don\'t have such a cleaner available (make a note to get some!) try plain water first, and if this does not work use a mild detergent solution made of dishwashing liquid and warm water.

 

Regular Cleaning

 

Most rugs and carpets will need to be deep cleaned ever 12 to 18 months to remove residues and trapped soils (unless otherwise recommended by the rug / carpet manufacturer). You may choose to rent a carpet-cleaning machine from your local hardware store, but most rugs are better cleaned by a professional.

Winn’s Pro- I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

I manage 16 luxury homes in Aspen, Colorado and would not go anywhere else for my carpet cleaning needs. On top of requiring very discreet and trustworthy services, our homeowners have specialty rugs and carpets which require unique care. Over the long relationship Ute Place has shared with Marty, there is not a problem Winn’s pro has not been able to handle for us. When he says, “call me any time”, he means it! Marty is always willing to help in emergency situations late in the day or over weekends and holidays and arrives on your doorstep quickly and with a smile. My homeowners are continually impressed with the “magic” Marty works on their carpets and rugs, always leaving them looking like new. I would, without hesitation, recommend Marty’s professional services to any client looking for a superior, friendly and flawless cleaning service.

Thank you Winn’s Pro!

Testimonial from Mason Morse Real Estate:This is to let you know that Marty Winn did an excellent job of cleaning our carpets. His service is unbeatable and the quality of his work is definitely first class.We had stains on our carpet that no other carpet cleaner was able to get out. The stains were set in and had been there for quite some time. Marty came to our office and said he did not care if we gave him the job or not; but he wanted to try and get the stains out. He not only got them out, his prices were excellent also.Marty came and cleaned our carpets and has followed up to make sure the stains have not returned.I highly recommend and trust Marty and Winn’s Pro Carpet Cleaning. He definitely is a professional and takes pride in his work.Thank you for all that you have done!Sincerely,Karen Scarberry/Office ManagerMason Morse Real Estate0290 Hwy 133Carbondale, CO. 81623
