How do I keep my new carpet clean?

• <div><p>Keeping your new carpet clean is vital to extending its longevity. Vacuuming regularly—at least once a week—can help remove dirt, debris, and pet hair. Instead of waiting, treating stains as they appear helps keep your carpet fibers looking fresh. Remember to blot rather than rub, rubbing will only make the stain larger. </p><p>It’s ideal to hire a professional carpet cleaning service to conduct a deep cleaning of your carpets a few times per year. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-carpet-cleaning-cost.htm">cost of professional carpet cleaning</a> is <b>$180</b> on average, which can help remove tough stains, draw out hidden dust and allergens, and eliminate odors. </p></div>

Can I clean an area rug with a hose?

• <div><p>Yes, you can use a hose to clean an area rug. Before you do, it’s a good idea to vacuum out dust and dirt and use a rug brush to remove pet hair and other debris. Just be careful not to be too aggressive, or you’ll damage the material. Bring your area rug outside and wet it evenly with your hose. You can even use a pressure washer on a light setting if you have a new, durable rug. Continue soaking until the water runs clean, and then hang your rug to dry.</p></div>

Q: Can carpet really be cleaned?

• <div><p>Yes, you can effectively clean and sanitize carpets, especially if you use an industrial vacuum with high-quality filters. Most pros will precondition the carpet and agitate the preconditioning solution for ultimate effectiveness. In some cases, even after thoroughly cleaning, you may notice that the carpet cleaning water still looks dirty. In that case, there may be embedded dirt or you may have mold in the padding.</p></div>

Q: Does hydrogen peroxide remove dried blood stains?

• <div><p>Hydrogen peroxide can be a good option for removing dried blood stains, but it&rsquo;s an aggressive solution that could discolor or damage your carpet. It&rsquo;s often a better option to call in a professional to deal with dried blood stains. A pro will have commercial cleaning solutions that do a better job as well as the experience necessary to get the stain out without doing irreparable damage to your carpet.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth cleaning a 15-year-old carpet?

• <div><p>If your carpet is 15 years old and has yet to be cleaned regularly (every year or two), then you may need to replace the carpet. Wear patterns, stains, and dirt that has filtered into the carpet may not come out if it isn&rsquo;t maintained properly. However, a professional carpet cleaner will test clean a small area or room to see if cleaning will give your carpet another couple of years of life. Otherwise, your best option may be to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-signs-you-need-replace-your-carpet.htm">replace the carpet</a>.</p></div>

Our kitchen used to feel dark, cramped, and totally out of sync with how we live. We finally decided it was time for a change, and that’s when Zamir and his team came in. Day by day, we watched our old kitchen transform into a bright, open space that actually works for our family. The new open...
