Carpet Stain? We Can Help

9/19/2020 (Permalink)

Stains can make a carpet appear more soiled that it really is, so no carpet cleaning method is complete unless all removable stains have disappeared.

 Follow these tips below:

1. Always blot or scrape up as much as possible before it soaks into the carpet.

2. For blotting liquids, use white paper towels or tissues. You can use a cloth, but it is not recommended. If used too long, the matter soaked into the cloth will re-deposit into the fibers and spread the stain.

3. For scrapping solid matter, use a table knife or SERVPRO scraper. Never use a sharp instrument.

4. Never use soap. This frequently leaves a sticky residue that causes rapid re-soiling.

5. Do not allow solvent-based products to penetrate to the backing. The might damage and soften the latex compound used to strengthen the carpet baking.
