Over time as with all things, rugs and carpets can take a beating through daily wear and tear. Rugs will see their fair share of dirt and staining over the years. This can be especially true in a home with pets and children. But the longevity of rugs can be significantly increased with the proper maintenance and upkeep. While spot cleaning can maintain a rug in the short term, deep cleaning truly is the way to maintain the fibers of any rug. While this process does not need to be done monthly, it should be done at least once a year.
There are different types of rug cleaning that can be done, but the best type of rug cleaning will provide a deep cleaning. Not all of the different types of rug cleaning get to the lower fibers of a rug, and these types of cleaning are more surface. As dust and grit build up in the rug pile, it will start to cut away at the rug fiber. This will increase the wear and tear on a rug and can start to create area where the pile is worn down. But to ensure longevity for a rug, a deep cleaning is the best. This is typically done once a year depending on the amount of traffic your rugs get.
The first time of year when a deep cleaning can be important is during the springtime. After the harsh winter months it is important to refresh a rug’s fibers. This cleaning is to take out excess accumulated dirt and stains from the heavy amount of indoor living that is done during the winter months.
The second time of year that is important to have a deep cleaning, is early fall as a family gears up for the holidays. This can be an especially important time of year to give rugs their luster back and refresh them. As family and friends gather around for the holidays a deep cleaning of a rug revitalizes its look and feel and makes your home look and smell clean and fresh.
The other important time of year to consider a good cleaning is often during the middle of the winter months. This can be a critical time to maintain a rug that is being exposed to a considerable amount of dirt, wear and tear. While not all rugs in the home may need this type of cleaning during the peak of winter, heavy snowfall can lead to a build up of dirt and mud in the main traffic area in your home and any rugs that are walk on.
