There’s nothing like having freshly cleaned carpet in your home. And while hiring us at KPI for professional carpet cleaning may be more of a special occasion than a regular maintenance task, having us come in and clean your carpets on an ongoing basis can help you maintain the appearance and longevity of this flooring material.
How often you should turn to us for professional carpet cleaning depends on several factors. We typically suggest the following guidelines:
- Every 12-18 months — If you have average foot traffic in your home, having your carpets cleaned approximately once a year is usually sufficient to maintain them.
- Every 6-12 months — If you have several children living with you, pets, or heavy foot traffic, you may need to clean your carpets more often. While you can aim for once a year, twice a year may be the better approach.
- Every 3-6 months — If someone in your household suffers from allergies or respiratory issues, more frequent carpet cleaning can help reduce allergens, dust, and pet dander.
- As needed — If you notice visible stains or odors, it’s best to schedule a cleaning sooner rather than waiting for the annual schedule. This way, you can take care of stains before they become permanent.
Regular vacuuming between professional carpet cleanings can also help prolong the life of your carpets while maintaining their appearance. For more information or to schedule carpet cleaning, reach out to us today.
