On average, hard floors are easier to keep clean and cause fewer problems with allergies than carpeting does. Nevertheless, many homeowners and renters want to live in a place with at least some carpeted rooms. Others don’t have a choice at the moment. They are renting an apartment or house that has carpeted floors, or they own a house and cannot yet afford to change the flooring. Professional Carpet Cleaners in Bellingham WA help these men and women keep the material in excellent condition.
Common Unwanted Substances in Carpet Fibers
In a home where people suffer from hay fever symptoms, deep cleaning of the carpeting at least once or twice per year is advisable. Dirt, sand, pollen, bacteria, mold spores, dust mites, pieces of dead insects and bits of animal waste accumulate toward the bottom of the fabric. The suction action of most vacuum cleaners does not effectively reach that far down.
Tracking in the Substances
The household residents may be horrified to give this any thought. However, in a home where people wear shoes that they wore outside and where pets go in and out, tracking in those substances is frequent. Some substances are never fully eliminated, but they proliferate when the carpets are not cleaned thoroughly. The population of dust mites is a primary example.
Rooms That Should Have Hard Floors
Certain rooms in the home are best without carpeting. Until the material can be removed, having the floors of these rooms professionally cleaned is important. Kitchens, bathrooms, and entry area ideally have hard-surface flooring instead of carpet because they often are damp. In the bathroom, the rug provides a soft place for bare feet. A thick mat can be placed outside exterior doors so people are encouraged to brush and scrape shoes.
Increasing Air Quality and Fabric Cleanliness
Air quality in the home is decreased when all those allergens and other substances are lurking in the carpet fibers. The thorough service of Professional Carpet Cleaners in Bellingham WA eradicates all those unwanted and disgusting substances. Now, everyone in the home can breathe easier again and feel comfortable about sitting or lying down on the carpeting.
