Caring For Your Carpet

• Regularly vacuum areas where there is heavy traffic
• Vacuum the entire carpeted area a minimum of twice per week - we recommend an upright cleaner with active beater bar for cut pile carpets and a suction model for loop pile carpets.
• Carpets should be periodically shampooed using the best proprietary carpet cleaner available for the type of carpet. We recommend you get this done by a professional cleaning company.
• Attend to spills and stains immediately.

Stain Prevention

Many of our carpets come with Stain proofing or ScotchgardTM protection. However, it is still important that you react quickly to any spill - the longer the delay, the higher the probability of a spill becoming a stain!

 Take immediate action dependent on the nature of the stain.

• Absorb liquid spills by blotting (DO NOT RUB) with absorbent cloths or plain white paper towels
• Scrape lightly to loosen a hard or crusty type stain
• Scoop up soft substances with the dull edge of a spoon
• Vacuum any loose particles that can be readily removed

Sponge warm water onto the spill, blot the spill firmly using a sponge or cloth. Repeat this procedure several times, rinsing the sponge or cloth frequently. Take care not to over-wet the carpet and do not walk on it until thoroughly dry. An application of salt will remove the remaining dampness.
