Carpet Care & Maintenance
Regular Care
The most sure-fire way to guarantee that your carpet continues to look its best is to invest in a high-quality vacuum cleaner and put it to use on a regular basis. Whether you elect for one with or without a beater bar is of no major concern so long as your actively vacuuming and working to remove dirt, dust, and other debris that can work its way into the fiber of your carpet, leading to long-term damage.
You may also want to place mats at the entrances to your home and encourage guests to remove their shoes before entering.
Stains & Spills
With carpet, when spills occur, the key is to act fast! The longer you wait to respond to a spill, the more likely it is to cause permanent damage to your flooring. When and if a spill takes place, the first step is always to absorb the substance with a clean cloth. Once finished, use another cloth to dab at the spill with cold water. Then reassess as needed. When in doubt, consult your manufacturer's care guide for advice.
