How Often Should You Clean Your Carpeting In SW Florida?

How Often Should You Have Your Carpeting Professionally Cleaned?  It Depends.

People often ask, “How regularly should I professionally have my carpeting cleaned?” While we tend to jest and answer with “once a week,” the reality is that there isn’t an exact timeline. The frequency of cleaning depends on how much traffic your carpet experiences and how you maintain it. Some households can get by without professional cleanings for several years, while others may require them every three months or so.

You shouldn’t just decide to clean your carpet based on how it appears. Many carpets can hold up to a pound of dirt per square foot before showing signs of soiling, making it hard to tell if your carpeting needs cleaning or restoration. This is why commercial spaces often put their carpets on maintenance programs – they know the importance of having them cleaned regularly to keep them looking like new. Think about giving this same consideration and protection to your carpets at home!

Nowadays, manufacturers increasingly ask homeowners to put their carpets on a regular maintenance program, especially if a warranty covers them. Why? Soil, grit, and grime in your carpet act like tiny blades that cut up the fibers causing them to lose the “new” sparkle and eroding their lifetime significantly. If you’ve ever been in a home and noticed a “traffic lane” in the carpeting, that’s probably not just dirt but damage and can not be removed by carpet cleaning. When we continue to walk on carpeting or shuffle our feet in front of our favorite sofa or easy chair, we create friction that grinds the dirt and sand into the carpeting. These abrasives cut against the carpet’s nylon fibers and permanently damage them.

Carpeting is also the largest filter in your home. By design, carpeting will filter contaminates, dust mites, pollen, and soils. If not regularly cleaned, these contaminants are released into the house, contributing to allergies and indoor air pollution. With proper care (vacuuming and professional steam cleaning), you can extend your carpeting’s life expectancy while improving indoor air quality.

When contemplating how often to vacuum your carpet, consider the visual aesthetic of it all, a reduction in unhealthy contaminants that can accumulate on carpets over time, and manufacturers’ warranty requirements. Most major carpet cleaning mills require that purchasers of their carpeting have it professionally cleaned every 12-18 months by a CERTIFIED IICRC carpet cleaning company, or risk voiding their warranty.  All these factors should aid you in making an informed decision about when it is best to clean your carpeting!
