Keeping the house in order

Professional Carpet Cleaning Is Highly Recommended If You Belong to Any of These Categories

24 March 2015 by Thomas Jones

Apart from the regular vacuuming, dusting and blotting that is offered at home, carpets require through professional cleaning regularly. This type of cleaning not only gets rid of dust inside the carpet, it also rids the carpet off dirt, grit, hairs, fibers and dried-in stains. Although everyone needs to get a professional carpet cleaning service, the service is dire if you are in any of these categories.

Pet Owners

Pets are great additions to any homestead. However, if you have a pet at home, you will have realized that your cat, dog or other pet, sheds a lot of fur around the house. Of course, the carpet is one of the favorite places for pets to rest so it collects a lot of these shed hairs every day. When disturbed, these furs are released into the hair where you can breathe them in, and experience respiratory problems, especially if you are asthmatic. In addition, these furs contain animal bacteria that can cause diseases as well.

Families with Small Children

Babies spend a lot of time on the floor, especially if they are at their crawling stage.  More specifically, they will spend a lot of time on the carpet. As is in their nature, they will collect things from the carpet including toys and food. It's therefore very easy to spread harmful bacteria from the carpet to your child if your carpet is not hygienic. Getting professional cleaning can go a long way to remove this unseen dirt and avoid having to seek expensive medical treatment.

People with Allergies

For people with allergies to pollen and other allergens, even the slightest irritations can trigger negative reactions that can cause great discomfort. Unfortunately, carpets tend to act as sponges where they accumulate dirt that has settled from the air and the people around the house. This includes dust, hairs and bacteria. When walking round or vacuuming, these allergens get released back into the air where they can get easily get inhaled and trigger allergies.

If You Haven't Sought Professional Carpet Cleaning in the Last Year

If you haven't had your carpet professionally cleaned in the last year or so, you too need to get your carpet cleaned as soon as possible. This is because most of the carpet's dust settles below the top fibers where vacuum cleaners cannot reach. Other types of dirt such as hairs and fibers get entangled inside the carpet making them hard to get out.

Professional carpet cleaning introduces hot water or steam into the carpet where the dirt and stains get dissolved before being sucked out through powerful suction machines. The final result will leave your carpet looking brighter and smelling fresh. Most importantly, your carpet will be clean from pet fur, germs, allergens and other dirt normally found in the carpet.
