When most homeowners chose a carpet, a fair amount of thought and investment go into it. In fact, a lot of times a carpet can be the 3rd expensive asset a home owner has apart from his vehicle and of course, his house. Of course with that comes maintenance, specifically, regular cleaning. It’s very crucial to a family’s health and periodic cleaning is a must. Carcigons, smog, nicotine, pet dander, soil and dust mite are just among the few environmental pollutants that get trapped on a regular basis.

Getting a professional to do the job ensures that every last bit of pollutant is removed. Make sure you choose the right fabric protector or a carpet servicing company, preferably a registered one.

Below is a list of advantages in detail.

1. Acid Dyes: Food particles, especially children’s food because of an infant’s tendency to spill, can create stains that can be difficult to remove. Sometimes if it gets dry, it can leave a permanent mark, damaging an expensive carpet in the process. A certified professional carpet dealer has the necessary chemicals to remove the stain without damaging the material.

2. Dry Soil: In countries like Australia, South Africa, and other areas with arid soil, dry soil is always present and can easily attach them to a carpet.

So is it safe for the environment?

So a popular question remains, is it eco-friendly? Well professionals who are eco-certified apply natural methods like baking soda to remove stains. Club soda is also used, along with white vinegar or fresh lemon juice to seal the deal.
