Many homeowners throughout the region rely on us at JL Williard Carpet Care as their trusted carpet cleaner since our local business has many years of industry experience, friendly technicians, and exceptional services. As the community’s go-to carpet cleaner, we frequently find ourselves sharing tips and recommendations with our customers, and there are some things that we wish all homeowners knew.
If you want to keep your carpets looking great, smelling fresh, and feeling soft, we encourage you to follow our tips below.
- Vacuum frequently. Some people only vacuum once a week since they assume that their carpets aren’t getting that dirty during their daily routine. However, even small amounts of dirt and debris can wear out carpet fibers over time, and promptly removing debris can extend the life of your carpets, reduce wear and tear, and prevent stains. We recommend vacuuming high-traffic areas every other day to keep them in good condition.
- Rearrange heavy furniture periodically. Leaving heavy furniture in one place for too long can leave carpet fibers crushed, matted, or even damaged. To help ensure even wear, regularly rearrange your living space to prevent furniture from sitting in one location for years on end.
- Implement a no-shoes policy. Homeowners can dramatically reduce wear, stains, and discoloration on their carpets by simply removing their shoes at the front door. If you have formerly been a shoes-on household, we encourage you to schedule a service with a professional carpet cleaner and then start removing your shoes whenever you go indoors.
