Living in the Northern Beaches means sun, surf, and salty air, but your carpets frequently suffer the most. With sandy footprints, spilled coffee, and other problems, it’s not enough to just vacuum the carpets here. Don’t rush the vacuuming if you want your carpets to appear good. Use Carpet Cleaning Sydney‘s tips long, overlapping strokes and allow the suction do the work, like in a slow dance. Going fast won’t get rid of that tenacious beach sand that’s stuck deep in the fibers.
Coffee stains are a common problem. If something spills, simply dab it up with a dry cloth. Don’t massage it. Then mix warm water with dish soap and gently dab the area. If the stain doesn’t come out, try a mix of vinegar and water. Just make sure to test it on an inconspicuous spot first to avoid any surprises.
Dealing with pet hair can be very hard. A rubber squeegee, like the kind you use in the shower, works great for getting hair out of carpets. If the hair sticks too much, softly spritz the carpet with water before using the squeegee to get it off more easily.
Humidity is another subtle issue that can lead to mold or bad smells. Sprinkle baking soda on your carpets every few weeks to make them smell better. Let it sit for an hour, then vacuum it up. It’s a simple, natural way to get rid of smells without spending a lot of money.
Renting a carpet cleaner once a year is a good way to get a deep clean. Pay attention to areas with a lot of foot activity, and make sure your carpets are totally dry by letting air flow through your home with fans or open windows. Mold can grow on wet carpets.
Don’t forget to move your furniture around every now and again. Moving objects a few inches can help you find dirt that is buried and stop things from wearing down unevenly, just like rotating tires on a car.
If you’d rather let the specialists do it, check for carpet cleaners in your area who know how to deal with wool, salt, sand, and synthetic blends. These are the ones who will do the greatest job.
Kids, dogs, and beach days make life messy, but you can keep your carpets clean with some simple spot cleaning (club soda in a spray bottle is a great tool). Every stain on your home tells a story.
Follow these steps, take off your shoes, and appreciate how clean the carpet feels. It’s one of the small pleasures of living on the Northern Beaches.
