Maintaining your carpet
With a little care, your carpet will remain pristine for many years!
CARING FOR YOUR NEW CARPET
Establishing a care routine for your carpet will not only keep it looking beautiful, but it will help extend the life of your floors. Allowing dirt and debris to build up will leave your carpet looking dull and breaks the carpet fibers down. Follow our guide to learn how to properly care for and maintain your carpet.
ROUTINE CARPET CARE
Caring for your new carpet will be easy once you establish a routine. You will want to vacuum your carpet a few times a week. How often depends on how much foot-traffic your room receives.
It is a good idea to place mats at entryways to reduce the amount of dirt tracked onto your floors, and it is best practice to remove your shoes before walking on carpeted floors.
Invest in a professional cleaning once a year to remove buildup and restore your carpet's vibrance, while extending its life.
DEALING WITH SPILLS
No matter how careful you are, spills are inevitable. But if you address them quickly, you will reduce the risk of stains forming. For dry spills, simply vacuum the area. For liquid spills, blot the liquid up with a clean, dry cloth.
DEALING WITH STAINS
If you have a spill that persists, it's important to address it immediately. Consult your manufacturer's guide for approved products you can use to remove stains.
