Carpets bring warmth and comfort to a house or office, but as time goes by they carry dust, stains, allergens and odours that regular vacuuming cannot remove. So how do you know if you need to take the plunge and hire a professional to clean your carpets? If you notice any of the following, it’s probably time to hire a professional carpet cleaning company, a trusted name in carpet cleaning across New Zealand.
1. Stains That Won’t Come Out
Scrubbing that red wine stain or pet stain, and it’s still there? There are some stains that settle into the carpet fibre and are impossible to remove with household cleaners. A professional carpet cleaning company would have the tools and experience to remove a stain safely, reliably and thoroughly.
2. Bad Smells
If you have even a faint musty smell, the carpet may be the cause. Pet stains, food stains, moisture build-up and dirt can all create bacteria which will give off smells for some time. Professional cleaners have industrial-grade deodorising agents which will neutralise the smell at its source.
3. Allergy Symptoms are Accumulating
Are you or your family members sneezing more frequently at home? Having carpets means that you have trapped allergens like dust mites, pollen and pet dander in them. If you have Pets or have the windows open, those allergens could become airborne. A deep cleaning by FibrePro can help remove those hidden allergens allowing for healthier air for you to breathe.
4. Heavy Foot Traffic Areas Look Aged
If there are areas of your carpet such as a hallway or an entry area that look noticeably darker or, more aged than the rest of the carpet, that is an indication you have excess dirt and oils that have built up in the space. Professional cleaning will help re-emerge these areas to your carpets original state.
5. You Learning Can’t Remember When It Was Last Cleaned
Most experts suggest a professional carpet cleaning every 12 months. if it has been longer, then you are most likely overdue. Even if the visual presentation of the carpet looks clean, dirt and bacteria can accumulate under the surface over time.
6. You’re Moving In or Out
Are you moving into a new home or selling your home? Either way a professional carpet cleaning from a professional carpet cleaning company will remove the previous tenants dirt or, leave an impressionable finish for the new homeowner.
7. Pet Hair, Puddles or Accident
Fur babies are family – they just come with some hair, odour and the sometimes accidents. If your carpet smells or looks worse for wear from your pets, a professional clean is a great way to revive hygiene and freshness.
8. Visible Mould or Mildew
Mould lives in wet carpet underlay – even here in the humid conditions in New Zealand. If there is a sign or a smell of mould, don’t procrastinate. Treatment by a professional cleaner is necessary to avoid health issues, and mildew repairs.
9. Your Carpet has Previously Flooded or Sustained Water Damage
Minor flooding will create long term carpet issues. The water is either not removed or not dried properly and is still trapped underneath the fibres. Trapped water can create mould and or bad smells. FibrePro have equipment specifically made for extracting moisture from carpets and avoiding future issues including bad smell and mildew.
