There are several rules you can put in place to help your carpet last and stay as clean as possible. You can have people remove their shoes when they enter your home, or even not allow food or drink in areas of your home that are carpeted. However, no matter how careful you may be, there are going to be accidents every now and then that leave you with a mess on your carpet. If you have stains that have popped up, it may lead you to attempt to clean your carpets to get rid of them. Carpet Dry-Tech is here to talk about what you need to do to ensure you don’t end up with crunchy carpet when you clean it on your own.
Why Does My Carpet Feel Crunchy?
No one wants to wind up with crunchy carpet after they have worked so hard to remove stains from their carpet. It can happen pretty easily though. Anytime you use soap to clean your carpet, you are more than likely going to end up with crunchy fibers when all is said and done. This is because you will more than likely not be able to rinse the carpet well enough to get all of the soap out of the fibers. Not only will this soap residue leave you with crunchy carpet, but it will also attract dirt and grime in the future. When this happens, you could wind up with carpet that looks dirtier than ever.
Carpet Cleaning Mistakes to Avoid
There are other carpet cleaning mistakes that you want to make sure you avoid as well.
– Scrubbing: When you scrub a stain that is in your carpet, you end up doing more damage that you do good. It can unravel your carpet fibers and leave them damaged rather than clean. You should always blot a stain away rather than put elbow grease into it.
– Waiting: If you see a spill happen, make sure you work quickly to remove it from your carpet. Don’t wait. The longer you wait, the deeper the spill seeps into your carpet fibers. This makes it far more difficult to remove successfully.
How Do I Make My Carpet Not Crunchy?
The best way to avoid crunchy carpet when you’re trying to remove a stain is to leave the carpet cleaning up to professionals. With the right equipment, you know that any cleaner that is being used to clean your carpets will be removed completely so you are left with soft carpet. Professionals will be able to deliver.
