Summertime brings nice weather, so more people are spending time outside. Kids are outside playing with their little friends and running around with their pet puppies. Theyâre coming inside covered in dirt and grass, and while youâre happy your kids are getting outside, chances are your carpets are taking a beating. While some homeowners may be looking for a DIY solution to help things look a little cleaner and brighter, you might do more harm than good.Â
If youâve been trying to make the right choice for your carpet cleaning needs, read on to learn more.Â
Summer Weather Brings Carpet Woes
Even though summer brings a lot of warm sunny days, it also brings summer rains that lead to muddy puddles. Just imagine your dog and kids coming back into the house enthusiastically for lunch with their feet covered in mud and grass. Now your beautiful carpet is covered in dirt and mud!Â
The good news is that there are things that you can do to clean your carpet. Generally, it starts off simple, like making sure everyone takes off their shoes before coming inside. Similarly, if your home has a mudroom, youâre in better shape than most. Another easy way to help things look better is by scheduling a carpet cleaning with a professional company.Â
Common DIY Carpet Cleaning Mistakes
Many people believe that itâs a good idea to try cleaning a carpet themselves. But there are some mistakes that you can make when youâre cleaning it on your own. Some of the more common mistakes include:
- Rubbing stains vigorously: This can damage the fibres of the carpet because it untwists them and causes fraying.
- Using the incorrect product for cleaning: This can cause discoloration and damage.
- Using a cleaning solution thatâs new before testing it: If you donât test it, it can lead to damage to the carpet or bleaching colour from carpet.
- Renting equipment thatâs faulty: Rental machines are often not correctly serviced or frequently damaged. You often donât know until itâs too late.
- Using an excess of chemicals: When you oversaturate carpet with chemicals it can damage your carpet and buildup over time.
If youâd prefer to avoid these costly mistakes, chances are youâre going to want to opt for a professional service.Â
