Carpets

Today some quick tips for looking after your carpets:

• Test your carpet before starting any scrubbing, extracting or spotting cleans. Some carpets
• can be sensitive to acidic cleaners and some to alkali's and can lose their dye.
• Always clean up spills and accidents as they happen. Most dirt can be removed if attended to quickly. Only when it left to react does it become a 'stain'.
• Never rub or brush spots; always work from the outside in and then soak it into a paper towel or cloth.
• Do not overuse any carpet chemicals, or you will be left with residue in the carpet that cannot be vacuumed.
• Wool carpet is ideal material as its texture and resilience means that it is easily cleanable, harder to dent and harder to get soiled.
