Secrets to Clean Rugs

Vacuum up to High Heaven

Any rug cleaner worth their salt will know that the hype surrounding hot water extraction is not undeserved but totally secondary. The first thing and one of the most important steps when it comes to cleaning rugs is vacuuming. Aim to get as much dirt out of the rug with your vacuum as you can! Since a professional rug cleaner will have an industry-grade vacuum cleaner that vacuums the rugs up to high heaven, what you need to do at home is invest in the best vacuum you can afford. Vacuuming should be done at least twice a week. Take your time and be thorough.

Rinse Your Hands Off of It

Oriental rug cleaning has to be done with care. While many rug owners understand that washing their rugs may be important, they ignore the rinsing part. If you do not rinse the rug properly, there will be detergent left behind. A DIY rug shampooer with a lot of detergent will cause more harm than good.

Stop It!

It would be a smart thing to avoid the need for rug cleaners by taking simple precautions. Accidental spills aside, long-term is the major factor that causes rugs to get dirty. How can you prevent dirt and grime from building up in your house? One of the easiest ways of doing that is to stop wearing outdoor shoes once you are inside the house. Those shoes of yours are the biggest cause of most of the dirt in your carpet because you track it in!

Let the Pros Handle It

While it may look, as if you could manage the job of cleaning your rugs by renting a steam cleaner and purchasing detergents, don’t! For a rug that is truly clean, seek out a professional. Here are just a few of the reasons why they would know best how to clean a rug.

There is a world of difference between washing and steam cleaning! The latter uses hot water and in order to make your rugs achieve a clean surface look. When you wash your rugs at home, you over-saturate them. A rug would take a day or two to dry but at that time, they provide the perfect setting for all kinds of mold, mildew, and bacteria to grow. The detergent that you will use will often leave a residue behind. The residue will attract dirt, making your rug get dirty again!

[su_pullquote]When you clean a rug at home, another important thing that you are missing out on is chem-dry. This process of rug cleaning used by professionals will ensure that your rugs are completely clean for longer.[/su_pullquote]

 Jen and team were so great to work with. We had a hard task at hand removing adhesive residue from residential hard wood floors. We couldn’t find anyone else up for the task and NYC Steam Cleaning got the job done. Highly recommend this service and team for any floor, carpet, rug, upholstery cleaning needs.

5 star experience. I recently got a puppy who turned my new couch into her personal bathroom. I did a google search and found NYC steam cleaning. Luckily, I was able to make an appointment for the next day with this company. The entire cleaning took about 1 hour. My couch is brand new again, thank you!!

 I have hired them two times and have been highly pleased. Our pet was not very nice to this carpet and they were capable to get it clean. They also did my upholstery and the whole thing looks great. Their service charges are very rational and the workers have arrived within few minutes.
