Keep your rugs happy and secured

Carpet cleaning, care and maintenance have gained popularity over the recent years. There is several carpet cleaning methods used professionally and personally at homes by users. What matters in the end is how frequent the cleaning is, the depth of stain and carpet quality. Silk carpets are very sensitive. Wool on the other hand is a rough and tough fibre. However, if the dirt is not cleaned properly, the stain is likely to reach the fibres deep enough causing considerable damage.

<b>Yogesh Chaudhary, Director of Jaipur Rugs Company </b>says, “By cleaning the carpets or rugs yourself, you can extend your carpet’s life duration. They will last long and will look cleaner for a long time. The cleaning process starts with an awareness to prevent all those nasty things that can cause harm to your carpet. It is advisable to use house slippers or walking socked while stepping on your rugs or carpets. Wearing shoes on expensive rugs are sure to bring stains, dirt and sand particles.”

It is vital for any user to purchase a carpet cleaning equipment such as a vacuum cleaner or a hoover for frequent removal of dust and dirt. Stains can be removed by professional help or by using carpet cleaning products available in the market. Some experts also suggest carpet cleaning through home-made solutions.

Whenever professional help is sought, it is necessary to be sure of what method is applied for cleaning. Some of the most commonly methods used are absorbent pad cleaning and dry carpet cleaning. Carpets can be cleaned through several ways. However, the equipment used depends on the type of cleaning to be performed. Available ones are steam generators, rotating brushes and single circulating scrubbers.

In most cases, the manufacturer of the rugs and carpets plays a distinct role in guiding its customers to the right place. Jaipur Rugs, a quality exporter of hand-made rugs suggests its customers that for any carpet cleaning equipment it is important to consider the quality of any carpet or rug. For instance, long pile shag rugs will require a different method of cleaning than the rugs that resemble indoor-outdoor carpet. The short pile carpet may be best cleaned by rotating brushes while deep pile carpet may be better cleaned using steam carpet cleaning equipment.

“Strong chemical products can be quite irritating to the nose and the lungs. One should wear gloves and mask so that the toxic materials do not affect much. Wearing goggles to protect eyes from corrosive carpet cleaning chemicals can also be used. Also, while cleaning one must remember to turn off the air conditioner and open the room windows,” says Yogesh Chaudhary.

The bottom line is the same. Ask your vendors or suppliers about the best method that you can apply to make your rugs happy and sparkling clean. Moreover, first try to dig information about the type of rugs that will suit your pocket, maintenance costs and more details of the fibres used to make your carpet. The best deal is to know what you are getting and the act of maintaining it.
