Use Doormats

Place doormats or carpet remnants at entryways. This will help to trap soil before it is tracked onto your carpeting.

Vacuum Reguarly

Dry soils such as clay, sand, decomposed granite, food particles, animal fibers, etc. make up over 70% of the soiling in the average carpet.

Blot Spills Fast

Quick attention to spots and spills will make removal easier. The longer a spill remains on the carpet, the more penetration it gets into the fiber, backing and padding.

Call a Professional

Carpets should be professionally cleaned on a regular basis before traffic patterns appear. Have a carpet protectant reapplied after cleaning, especially in heavy traffic areas.
