Carpets today are made from a variety of fibres, this also applies to the backing used to construct the carpet. Cheaper carpets tend be made from non natural materials whilst expensive carpets tend to be made from natural materials for example wool.
I would like to inform you about carpet backings since cleaning your carpets once a year is advisable to keep them healthy and remove any bacteria. Without the knowledge of backings you can easily shrink your carpet with a machine that can be hired from your local supermarket or DIY store.
A woven carpet may be very expensive in general however if not cleaned correctly could shrink or begin to show brown stains which is called browning. Most woven carpets have a Jute thread going through the weave, Jute is a natural fibre and can suffer shrinkage when it comes in contact with water.
If you have a woven carpet I strongly advise you get them cleaned by a professional with knowledge of woven carpets.
If you do hire the service of a professional, ensure they carry out a full survey of your carpet especially the backing type and if the colour will bleed from the carpet.
Choosing A Professional Carpet Cleaner. Like any trade there are incompetent carpet cleaners, cowboys call them what you like. So courtesy of Carpet Cleaning Surrey, he are a few tips you can ask them to ensure they are competent and will do a good job.
Ensure the carpet cleaning professional knows the following; how to carry out a carpet survey, how to determine the type of backing and fibres used, they use the correct cleaning method following their survey. Additionally make sure they hoover your carpet slowly and thoroughly otherwise the dirt will get pushed back in to the carpet.
Cleaning using water is always better since a pre spray can be used which is agitated, a pre spray is excellent to break down soiled fibres in your carpet. The 2 main types of pre sprays are micro splitters and non micro splitters. All pre sprays need to be extracted clean using a carpet cleaning machine.
