Your carpet is a big portion of the look of your room. If your carpet is dirty, then it could throw off the entire feel of your home. Here is a list of regular practices that will keep your carpet looking pristine and beautiful.

1. Vacuum Regularly

Regular thorough vacuuming will keep most of the dry dirt, pet hair, pollen, and allergens out of your carpet. This regular maintenance will ensure that your carpet does not deteriorate faster than it should. Your carpet will benefit from being vacuumed at least once a week.

2. Remove Shoes

Taking your shoes off will prevent dirt from coming into your home from outdoors in San Mateo. Beyond that, wearing shoes in the house can deteriorate the carpet itself by putting extra stress on the material. This simple step will prevent your carpet from becoming dingy and deteriorated before its time.

3. Clean Up Quickly

If there is a spill on your carpet, then clean it up immediately, working quickly to ensure that the stain does not set. Blot the stain with a clean cloth, and make sure you remove all water and cleaning product afterwards to prevent deterioration.

4. Place Rugs in High Traffic Areas

Putting a rug at the door or in a hall with high traffic will make sure that all of the dust and dirt is collected before reaching your carpet, and it will add a protective layer to your floor. It may seem redundant to put a rug on your carpet, but it will protect your carpet and has the added benefit of tying a room together.
