These days, carpets have been making a comeback as a great flooring option for both homes and offices. They’re just such a versatile flooring solution-- in my workplace, carpet tiles are used to create professional-looking lobbies and reception areas, and in my own home, carpets make every room feel cosier. It’s also a much safer option for households with small children than hard tiles or other types of flooring because of its cushioning.
If you’re reading this, you probably already own a carpet that you use for your own space. You also likely know that the biggest downside of carpeting is that it can stain and dirty easily. One of the mistakes I made as a new carpet owner is that I didn’t think that carpet cleaning services done by professionals for my carpets mattered. I mean, I already vacuum and spot clean my carpets when it gets stained, and cleaning them can be quite tedious, so does it really matter? I can just lay my carpets away from areas with high foot traffic, right?
Why does your carpet need professional cleaning?
Unfortunately, this isn’t the case, as most carpets will still need a thorough cleaning even if they are well-protected. A simple vacuum or wash will not be able to get rid of all the layers of dirt embedded in the carpet (especially if you haven’t had them cleaned before). The longer you wait to have your carpets professionally cleaned, the more likely for your carpet to obtain hard or impossible to remove stains. And carpet cleaning doesn’t just make them clean-- they also help increase the longevity of your carpets.
Here are a few of the reasons why I’ve had to look into a carpet shampoo service in Singapore and how it helped me out.
1. To get rid of weird smells.
Do you have a pet in your home? Well, you probably already know to keep them away from your carpets if they’re the type to claw, but if they’re like mine and are known to have accidents all over your furniture, you might want to invest in professional cleaning services. My own dog once peed on my carpet, and the smell of urine lingered for days. Even a good scrub didn’t completely eliminate the smell, but a professional company will have cleaning formulas to help with it.
2. Keep your carpets looking their best for years to come.
Over time, grime, mould, and other types of stains and dirt can degrade the quality of your carpet. With carpet cleaning services in Singapore, you can rest assured that your carpets will not be in contact with them. Another thing you should note is that cleaning your carpets yourself can backfire. Homeowners like myself should already be aware of them: how many times have you scrubbed something clean, only to ruin it even more with the chemicals you used? Professional cleaners will know exactly the right way to clean your carpets without damaging them.
3. Eliminate the time and effort needed to clean your carpets.
Even if you’ve somehow managed to learn how to effectively clean your carpets like a professional can, you’ll still need to expend a lot of time and effort to clean your carpets. Having it done by a professional isn’t just more convenient, it’s also faster. That’s because they have the necessary tools and equipment, as well as the knowledge to complete the task quickly and efficiently.
4. To avoid allergies and other health hazards.
I’m allergic to dust, and my family has a history of asthma. Having dust and dirt buildup in carpets, therefore, is not ideal. So looking for carpet cleaning services that can reliably clean your carpets is important. If your family is also at risk, professional cleaning is the way to go.
5. To preserve the look and feel of your carpets.
Ever had any piece of fabric (whether clothes, linen, rugs, etc.) that you’ve forgotten about and then rediscovered sometime later? You’ll often see that these fabrics look faded, dirty, and might feel stiff or uncomfortable to the touch. Cleaning serves the purpose of also softening up your fabrics and preserving their appearance. It’s the same principle with your carpets. A professional clean is much more likely to penetrate the fabric of your carpet without damaging them.
