How often should I clean my rugs?

We are being asked this question frequently as how often we should clean our rugs. Your carpets and rugs should be cleaned every two years whether they look dirty or not. This is recommended by most carpet and rug manufacturers. There are circumstances in which you might have it done more often.

It depends upon the traffic your rugs get and who is providing the traffic. It varies from home to home as often as every six months to two years. You should professionally clean your rugs between eighteen months to two years if your rug is under moderate use. Mostly entry rugs or rugs that are with a lot of activity from pets or small children, can be cleaned annually due to high traffic. It is always advisable to clean your rugs every two years if you live alone or with a partner.

Our pets are always cute but sometimes have occasional accidents. Pet urine, left unattended, can damage rugs and carpets in several ways. With pets at home, you should professionally get your carpets and rugs cleaned every 6 to 12 months.

Also the deep down soil, that settles to the base of your carpet fibres can cause damage to your rug by reducing its life. Removing these particles frequently by professional cleaners will save your rug. Also make sure you vacuum your carpets and rugs on a regular basis.
