Sandy, Utah Cleaning Company Shares Tips On Maintaining Carpet Flooring

Centerville, Utah based Mr. Chem-Dry, one of the leading carpet cleaning companies in the area, recently issued a useful guide on the proper maintenance of carpet flooring. They also highlight the importance of cleaning carpets regularly in order to prolong their lifespan.

Carpets are among the most popular flooring options among homeowners, since they are available in a variety of colors, textures, materials, and styles. However, many find it difficult to maintain their carpets due to daily wear and tear, dirt, stains, and spills. Fortunately, Mr. Chem-Dry recently issued a number of useful tips to guide homeowners on ways them may keep a clean and well-maintained carpet.

Company spokesperson Daryl Olsen explains that homeowners should primarily avoid carpeting areas of the house that see high-traffic. When deciding which areas of the homes should be carpeted, he says that it is important to avoid the front door entryway and kitchen since they attract heavy-foot traffic and are more prone to dirt and spills. On the other hand, Olsen recommends installing carpets in living rooms, dens, and bedrooms as these areas are less accessible than the other parts of the house.

“To minimize the dirt on the carpet, remove your shoes or wipe your feet before stepping on it. Placing both an outdoor and indoor mat can also help reduce the amount of dirt on the carpet,” says Olsen. He also points out that carpets are meant to be vacuumed regularly to remove all the trapped dirt and dust in them. It is recommended that carpets installed in areas with heavy foot traffic be vacuumed 2-3 times a week. Sections with less traffic can be vacuumed once a week.

In addition, there are commercially available carpet protectors that can be sprayed all over the carpet. Carpet protection sprays are the best way to proactively prevent dullness and overall wear and tear on carpeted flooring. Olsen further states that stains and spills must be cleaned as quickly as possible. The key is to not put too much force while cleaning the affected area and to avoid using strong chemicals in order to prevent wearing the carpet out prematurely. Continue cleaning the dirt or spill until it is almost dry, he says, then vacuum it to finish the job.

Moreover, Olsen asserts that hiring a professional carpet cleaning company every once in a while is a great way to prolong the lifespan of carpet flooring. “Paying a little extra to bring in a professional will not only maintain the quality of your carpet but also result in more savings in the long run,” he says.

Mr. Chem-Dry is a trusted Sandy Utah carpet cleaning company, based on positive reviews and recommendations they have received from many of their previous customers. They utilize a hot carbonating extraction process that is significantly faster and more effective than generic carpet cleaning options. It gets rid of 98% of allergens that get stuck deep in the fibres of the carpet, removes up to 89% of airborne bacteria, and uses less than 80% of water during the cleaning process (compared to steam cleaning). More importantly, it only takes a few hours for the carpet to dry up completely.

Dallyn Gilles, in a 5-star Google review, says, “I was able to get an appointment at short notice. The gentleman was punctual and finished much faster than anticipated. We've lived in our rental for a year and a half now, and while the carpets were cleaned just before we move in, they were never truly clean. He was able to easily get out the spots from the previous renters that I had given up hope of ever removing. Carpet dried quickly, and I couldn't have been happier with the experience.”

Jason Whitney, in another 5-star Google review, says, “Ted from Mr. Chem Dry did some work to clean my carpets after a flood on my bottom floor. He was able to get out stains caused by the flood and in the course of the restoration work, as well as stains that the previous carpet cleaner was not able to clean. I've hired carpet cleaners at least once a year over the past 10 years and, based on those experiences, I didn't think many of the stains would come out. Amazing job.”
