The top 4 things you can do to keep your carpet looking its best:
- Use entrance mats
- Vacuum regularly
- Blot up spills immediately
- Periodically have your carpet professionally cleaned
General measures of carpet quality include:
- Density: this measures the quantity of carpet fiber per square yard. The denser the better!
- Twist: this measures how tightly each individual fiber has been twisted.
- Ounce Weight : Higher ounce weight carpets feel more luxurious and in general
perform better.
- Fiber Type: The type of fiber (nylon,
polyester,wool, etc.) has a lot to do with the ability of the finished
carpet to resist stain and crushing. Matching your lifestyle to the performance characteristics of these fiber types is very important, (just ask us and we can help).
For carpet alone, there are over 20 different types of Scotchguard protection, each designed for specific fiber and application methods.
Carpet is typically replaced every 7 years. Carpet with Scotchguard protection remains cleaner 2 to 3 times longer than untreated carpet. |
