Kids, critters, and crowd are tough on carpet. It seems that half of Colorado gets tracked into the
house or into the front door of your business on a daily basis. Vacuuming can only do so much
and doesn’t remove all the dirt and grime. To win the day, you have to end up cleaning the
carpets.
Carpeting is one of the single most expensive installed items that you have to budget into a new
home. You also have to budget for replacement every so often. It makes sense to do regular
maintenance on a carpeted floor to keep dirt from breaking down the fibers and destroying the
backing, as well as stains and odors from becoming permanent residents.
Most people do not realize that a lot of people can smell your carpet when they walk in your
house. What has been on the carpet makes a big difference if it is not unpleasant, or it makes
you want to run out the door. You might be used to your dogs and cats and kids, but the visitor
may well not be. This is especially serious when you have a home business and receive
customers, are trying to sell the house, or have someone who has allergies that has to live in or
regularly visits.
If you have rented a carpet cleaning machine from a big box or hardware store, you know how
much work it is to clean your own carpet. You also know that the carpet and backing seems like
it takes forever to dry, and you really did not get all the stains out. It is also easy on certain kinds
of carpet like berber to get a thread snagged and yank out a whole row of stiches with the
strong rotating roller in the machine. Since few people really know what kind of fiber their
carpet is made of, let alone the backing and padding, they really start blind trying to clean a
carpet with a water filled machine and questionably effective spotting chemicals. If you have
had pets or babies or even elderly in the home, there can be additional biological challenges to
getting a carpet clean, sanitized, deodorized, and dried.
While some of those machines work ok, none of them really do a great job. Carpet cleaning is
one thing that really needs left up to professionals. It is reasonable, and they know how to
assess stains, condition, and fiber content for the best cleaning combination and best outcome.
Carpet cleaning Colorado Springs needs done is a bit more of a challenge than some areas. Our
variable weather means we are constantly tracking in stuff from the outdoors onto our floors
and carpet. Because of boots and dirt and wet coming in, it tends to make trails of grime in the
carpet that also are wear lines. Letting a professional handle those tough cleaning jobs is well
worth the price.

Sometimes carpet gets damaged. Your new Fido really liked the pizza sauce from the flipped box
last night. He decided to help remove it from your carpet, and carpet along with it. Call a

room if not more due to wear and fading. Everyone likes to save money, especially when it is a
lot, which carpet replacement will be.
