The Benefits Of Steam Cleaning Carpet And Upholstery More Often

Introduction

Hello and welcome to our blog on the advantages of cleaning your carpet and upholstery on a regular basis! This is a brief blog in which you will learn how carpet and upholstery cleaning may save you money in the long run while also keeping you and your home healthy. Our London Cleaning specialists recommend that the carpet and upholstery be professionally cleaned at least once a year, ideally twice a year.

1. Improved quality of the indoor air

Bacteria and allergens in carpet can taint your indoor air quality and make breathing difficult for people with allergies or asthma. This can aggravate respiratory issues and cause other health issues for you and the more susceptible members of your family.

Professional carpet cleaning methods and processes assist to eradicate allergens and sanitise the carpet, giving your house healthier, cleaner indoor air. When cleaning with a regular vacuum cleaner, most of the dust can be collected but not on 100%, and this is where we come! We use professional equipment which extrudes all the dust and dirt from your carpet and refreshing your home.

2. Removing 99% of the dirt, bacteria and stains

We’ve all had the experience of making a stain on the carpet and attempting to remove it using store-bought detergents. Attempts to clear the stain result in the formation of a larger and more persistent stain.

When you spill liquid on the floor, the best thing you can do is take up a tissue/towel and softly tap on the stain to absorb as much as possible. Your next step should be to contact a professional to remove the stain.

When we clean your carpet and upholstery, we gather all of the dust and germs that is typically trapped in the carpet’s fibres. We promise that, if not all, then almost all of the dirt is gathered using our methods, detergents and equipment. Our specialists can even show you all of the filth that has been removed from your carpet and upholstery after it has been cleaned!

3. Hygiene and healthier home

Cleaning your carpet and upholstery on a regular basis (at least twice a year) keeps your house free of dust, odours from the the carpet, and stains on the upholstery and carpet. The carpet also filters the air in your house, making it important to keep clean so that the air you breathe is of higher quality. Also, when the carpet and upholstery are properly cleaned, the bulk of the bacteria is caught during the cleaning process.

In fact, the longer you wait to schedule a professional carpet and upholstery cleaning, the more difficult it will be to clean completely. If you leave stains on your carpet for too long, they may become permanent, and they may reoccur even after a professional cleaning.

4. Extend the lifetime of your carpet and upholstery

Carpets typically take a battering from the heavy floor traffic that passes over them on a regular basis. Dust, filth, and grime become embedded in the carpet’s fibres over time, causing the carpet to seem dull and lifeless. Don’t you miss the way your house appeared when your carpet was brand new? That is one of the advantages of carpet cleaning.

While vacuuming is necessary for eliminating surface filth, professional steam cleaning will go deeper into the carpet to retrieve the dirt and debris build-up that regular vacuuming leaves behind.

Furthermore, your Professional Carpet Cleaning Company offers chemicals that will sanitise the carpet and refresh the fibres, restoring the appearance of your carpet.

5. Removing the odours/smells

Many of the aromas and subtle mustiness scents in carpets might be attributed to pet accidents and beverage spills. Urine on the carpet might be an issue. Coffee, for example, has a distinct fragrance, but becomes stale and difficult to remove after it has penetrated the carpet.

A professional carpet cleaning service will use specialised sanitising solutions to help eradicate smells. When applied, several of these products are also odourless.

Steam cleaning issue areas without sanitization will result in odours returning or materialising for the first time. Nonetheless, steam washing with sanitization will eradicate the smells. One of the advantages of carpet cleaning is that your home will smell fresh and clean.

6. Eliminate soiling from high traffic areas

Have you seen darker coloured lanes in carpeted areas with a high level of foot traffic? Entranceways, hallways, staircases, and even simply in front of your preferred couch where you put your feet?

Professional Carpet Cleaning can assist in restoring dirty lanes to their original even colour. Of course, this presupposes the carpet is dirty rather than worn thin with age.

Unfortunately, no amount of steam cleaning can bring the worn carpet back to life.
