Not only do very few people remove their wet, muddy shoes before stepping into the building, there\u2019s also a greater amount of foot traffic and dirt that commercial carpeting has to endure.

Regular vacuuming removes soil and dirt that can damage carpet fibre and therefore reduces the longevity of the carpet.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another convenient and cost-effective alternative to traditional vacuuming for buildings with large carpeted surfaces is a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sabco.com.au\/2020\/02\/11\/carpet-sweeper\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">carpet broom<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Unlike traditional vacuums, carpet brooms are capable of picking up larger items without damaging the brushes or motors of a vacuum, and is an investment that will help keep your carpets free of debris.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>Use an area rug<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Area rugs are ideal for being placed at major entrances to act as a buffer zone. In this case, most people will be able to leave their dirt and mud on these rugs when stepping in. This reduces the likelihood of your office carpet getting dirty. You can also place the rugs in high traffic areas and areas that tend to be messier than other parts of the office. Take note that area rugs should be heavy and easy to clean. However, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/services\/office-carpet-deep-cleaning\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">office carpet cleaning<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> should still happen once a month if you experience high foot traffic. One advantage of deep cleaning is that it can help to remove dirt trapped not only in the carpet fibres but also below the carpet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>Use baking soda\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1565\" src=\"https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/carpet-stains-cleaning.jpg\" alt=\"carpet stains cleaning\" width=\"1110\" height=\"474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/carpet-stains-cleaning.jpg 1110w, https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/carpet-stains-cleaning-300x128.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/carpet-stains-cleaning-1024x437.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/carpet-stains-cleaning-768x328.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/carpet-stains-cleaning-585x250.jpg 585w, https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/carpet-stains-cleaning-176x75.jpg 176w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1110px) 100vw, 1110px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stains that are caused by things like coffee, soda, wine, ink, and anything that is colourful or dark, but without any oily or fatty residue can be removed using baking soda. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Baking soda helps by working like a magnet, attracting dirt and clumping them together for an easier clean up. To use baking soda as a cleaning agent, sprinkle the powder dry, or mix with a liquid such as vinegar, to form a paste. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Apply on stained areas and allow to dry before vacuuming up the powder. For the dry method, simply work in the baking soda using a bristle brush, then vacuum it up completely for a carpet that looks clean and bright. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, baking soda isn&#8217;t the only way to rid your carpet of stains. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cleancare.com.sg\/sem\/services\/home-carpet-rug-cleaning-services\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carpet shampoo services<\/span> <\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">are also a popular and effective option.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Do note<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> though that carpet shampoos might take hours to dry, so the room would need to be off-limits until ready.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>Don&#8217;t wait to treat stains<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, don\u2019t wait to tackle stains. Old carpet stains are infinitely harder to treat than new carpet stains.
