How Often Should You Schedule Carpet Cleaning?
Most people vacuum their carpets at least once per week. Unfortunately, vacuuming isn’t enough to keep your carpets thoroughly clean. Pet Dander, dirt, bacteria, and food crumbs easily work their way deep beneath the surface fibers, where they are difficult to remove using standard vacuum cleaners. If you want your carpets to last a long time and continue looking great, you’ll need to schedule professional carpet cleaners on a regular basis.

The Standard Recommendations for Carpet Cleaning
Most homeowners should schedule professional carpet cleaning every six to 12 months. The more heavily used the carpeted areas of your home are, the more frequently they will require professional cleaning. In addition, you should check the warranty information for your carpet. The manufacturer may require you to schedule a professional cleaning at specific intervals in order to keep your warranty valid. Remember to keep the receipts for all of your professional carpet cleanings. The manufacturer may ask for copies of the receipts if you ever need to file a warranty claim with the company.

The Situations When You Should Schedule More Frequent Cleanings
Some homeowners find that they need to get their carpets cleaned more frequently than the standard recommendations. For instance, if you have a light-colored carpet, you’ll notice that dirt and grime are more highly visible. White, off-white, tan, and other light-colored carpets tend to require more frequent cleanings. You may also need to get your carpets cleaned more frequently if you have young kids or pets, as they can be rough on carpets! Finally, you may want to schedule a professional carpet cleaning if you’re planning on hosting a family reunion or similar get-together at your home.
