Tips On Getting Rid Of Water Stains From A Carpet

While water is essential for all types of cleaning, including carpet cleaning, it can also give you cause to have to clean up stains. Water stains can affect all sorts of items such as clothing, furniture, and of course, carpets.

The ways that water can get onto a carpet are almost limitless, with some examples being spillages from drinks tumblers, puppies urinating, drips from raincoats or umbrellas when you come in from the rain, and more seriously, from flooding.

You might think that it would be impossible for water to stain a carpet given that it is a clear liquid, but it can, albeit indirectly. What happens is that any dirt which is already hiding in the carpet is absorbed by moisture, including water, and this then appears on the surface of the carpets as a stain.

As with any stain, you will obviously want to remove it, but the question is how? Well, here are some tips to remove water stains from your carpets.

Make Sure You Have the Correct Cleaning Materials / Solutions

No matter what you are cleaning, and the type of stain you wish to remove, it is imperative that you use the correct cleaning materials or cleaning solutions. Countless items have been ruined or destroyed, including carpets, due to their owners simply not reading the manufacturer’s instructions and then using something which they shouldn’t have.

7 Common Couch Cleaning Mistakes You Must Avoid

7 Common Couch Cleaning Mistakes You Must Avoid

Couch cleaning is something that can deal both with an emergency such as spilt wine and be a regular task to keep your couch in tip-top condition. However, even the most diligent of people can often make mistakes regarding the cleaning of their couches, which are likely to do more harm than good. So, to help you avoid those couch cleaning mistakes, we have outlined seven of the most common ones, so that you are fully aware of them.

Common Couch Cleaning Mistake #1 – Not Reading Your Couch’s Care Instructions: We have this mistake first because it is the most common, and the most easily remedied simply by reading the care label. By doing so, you ensure that you are caring for your couch as it should be according to the manufacturers. Also, you avoid risking damaging it by cleaning it with something that should never be anywhere near your couch.

Common Couch Cleaning Mistake #2 – Failing To Regularly Vacuuming Your Couch: Vacuuming can often seem like a boring chore, however, it genuinely is something that you must do to keep your couch clean. Not vacuuming allows particles of dirt, grit, and food as well as hair from you, your family, and any pets you might have to remain. With all of that accumulating by you not vacuuming, your couch becomes both grubby and a less-than-pleasant place to sit.

Common Couch Cleaning Mistake #3 – Attempting To Clean Using The Wrong Products: This mistake is probably responsible for more couches being ruined and needing replacing than any other. Often what will happen is someone will use a cleaning product that is unsuitable for the fabric or leather on their couch, or worse, they will mix up a cocktail of various detergents which has the same damaging effect.

Removing Tough Stains From Your Carpets

Removing Tough Stains From Your Carpets

Removing tough stains from your carpets can be difficult. You could always call in a professional carpet cleaning team, but this isn’t always necessary with minor stains. However, immediate treatment is essential.

If you don’t treat tough carpet stains immediately, you could run into all sorts of problems. As you can imagine, dark stains on pale carpets – or vice versa – look terrible.

In this article, we’ve put together a complete guide to removing tough stains from your carpets without using toxic chemicals. Good luck, and remember, there’s no harm in giving your local carpet cleaners a call if you’re having trouble.

Make Sure You Deal With Stains Immediately

Of course, it’s tempting to leave that red wine stain until the next morning or to treat your pet urine stains when you have more time after work. However, doing so is a recipe for disaster.

Tough stains will bind to your carpet over time, so they must be removed immediately. We highly recommend treating all stains immediately using the methods outlined below.

Note that different types of stains will require different treatments, so this guide is quite general. Do some research before treating any stain. Otherwise, you will probably just end up making the problem worse.

  1. Remove Any Physical Debris Immediately

First, you will need to remove any physical debris with a spoon or fork. This is especially true regarding food spills or pet faeces stains.

When you’re doing this, you will need to be careful to ensure you don’t force the stain further into your carpet. Use a scooping motion, but don’t apply any more downward pressure than necessary.

Top 3 Signs That It’s Time to Clean Your Office Carpets

Top 3 Signs That It’s Time to Clean Your Office Carpets

Typically outward and obvious signs are the best way to determine if your office is in need of professional carpet cleaning. Things like spilled coffee, wine, food stains or an accumulation of dirt are dead giveaways.

But, there are often hidden and more nefarious indications that your carpets are in need of a clean. The following 3 signs will tell you that it’s time to head into town and have a chat with your local carpet cleaner.

  1. Strange Odours

If you walk past your carpet and detect a strange smell every time, it’s a pretty good sign that it might be time to get it cleaned. Mysterious smells from a carpet often indicate that something wet once spilled there.

Anything that hits your carpet and doesn’t dry properly can create mould buildup. Most carpet dirt won’t smell particularly bad, but a nasty or rancid odour usually indicates the presence of mould – which can also harm your health.

  1. Extreme Allergy Symptoms

If you’re walking around your office carpets and you suddenly find your throat itchy or your eyes watering, it’s a sign that something is amiss. A lot of coughing and sneezing around your carpets is an even surer sign that they’re the source of your problem.

Health issues like this could point towards a buildup of allergens in your carpet, such as mites, dust, bacteria, pollen and dander. These will cause multiple irritations, which can make it very difficult to concentrate in a work environment. Getting our professional carpet cleaning team will ensure the removal of these allergens and will allow you to get back to work.

Five Benefits of Regular Carpet Cleaning

Five Benefits of Regular Carpet Cleaning

Home carpeting can be wonderful for comfort and appearance. It’s very common for homeowners to install carpets to give themselves, their family and their guests a homey and inviting experience. However, home carpets come with a set of responsibilities, which includes regular maintenance and carpet cleaning.

Typically, you should get a professional carpet cleaning every 6-18 months, depending on how much foot traffic you get. Although you might hesitate to pay for a carpet cleaner, many practical benefits exist. Our top five are listed below for your convenience.

  1. Positive Health Benefits

Carpets often trap dust particles, bacteria and numerous allergens. Having such allergens in your home carpet can cause problematic allergic reactions, particularly in children. While traditional home methods like vacuuming can help eliminate these allergies, they won’t do a thorough job.

Long-term dirt build-up, in particular, is not going to be moved by light vacuuming. Professional-grade products can much more successfully clean and sanitize your home carpets and only professional services can provide them. Professional carpet cleaning in Perth should successfully eliminate any allergens without a problem.
