When it comes the lifespan of your carpets, maintenance is key! It is recommended every 12 – 18 months to have your carpets cleaned. Some may think renting a machine from the local supermarket will do the same job but that’s just not true. Not every carpet is cut from the same cloth and not every spot requires the same treatment; some products may actually make a spot worse. Not to mention a professional system will kill bacteria and dust mites, keeping your home cleaner and healthier. You can go to a hardware store and buy nails and wood, but would you want to build your own house?
