In our work as carpet technicians, we’ve come across the same problem with our domestic customers in London: how to deal with a carpet that’s beyond cleaning.
It shouldn’t surprise you that there are carpets out there that can no longer be restored to the way they were when new — and any carpet cleaning company that promises you this is not really professional.
For example, let’s say that you have a fifty years old carpet that needs cleaning. In mostly 99 percent of the cases, we will be able to clean it and restore it to the way it was; however, sometimes that’s rather impossible.
It’s situations like these that can be avoided by thinking ahead and they can be prevented in three simple steps:
A. What to do when buying a new carpet
When you buy a new carpet, remember to buy a carpet that’s ten percent larger than the room you’ll place the carpet it.
The price for the extra ten percent shouldn’t be that high; if it is, look for a different carpet seller.
B. Store the extra carpet tile
Ask the carpet seller to carefully trim the extra ten percent so that you can store it elsewhere (like in your attic, for example).
It shouldn’t take that much space, especially if you roll the carpet really well.
C. Use the extra carpet tile when needed
Once you run into a situation where the carpet is beyond repair or cleaning, you can cut out the part of that carpet that’s bothering you and replace it with a clean tile from the spare carpet roll.
That way, you won’t have to pay a penny for having a carpet technician trying to remove the stains or clean the messy carpet.
