Unless there’s a giant stain on the carpeting, many occupants of a building don’t think about having their carpets cleaned. The life of the carpeting depends on the maintenance performed such as regular vacuuming and cleaning. Although a carpet scrubber can be purchased from a retailer, none of them have the same ability to clean like Carpet Cleaning Services in Grand Rapids MI. Excess water is often left behind by machines purchased or rented in a store. The padding becomes saturated with water, and the carpeting can develop mold in the backing or between the padding and the floor.
Changing a filter in a furnace or HVAC unit helps to eliminate some of the dirt within a building, but carpeting will harbor bacteria, viruses, pet dander, hair, food particles and many other things that can create dust and make the air unhealthy. If someone’s noticed a lot of dust on the furniture, the majority of it is coming from the carpet fibers in the room. Animal dander and dust mite droppings stay in carpeting and can create allergy, asthma or sinus problems. Areas that are heavily traveled can become crushed and look worn even after vacuuming. Regular carpet cleaning services in Grand Rapids MI can keep the carpeting looking its best all year around.
Upholstery in a building should also be cleaned on a regular basis. Chairs and couches that have a fabric covering can retain the same dust mite droppings and animal dander that’s found in a carpet. When liquids or food are spilled on furniture, only the top layer of the material usually gets cleaned by a cloth. Removing the particles from the upholstery will keep it from developing a foul smell or absorbing dirt into the stain. Business and residential furniture are very expensive to purchase and regular cleaning will keep it looking like new for years to come.
Oil from people’s skin can accumulate on furniture from their hands, hair and any part of their body. These oils can create a grungy film on the fabric. Dirt in carpeting can quickly destroy and fibers and wear out the carpeting well before its time.
