Carpet Cleaning 101
Having clean and fresh carpets adds an elegant sparkle to your home. But this is not the only thing that you should think about when you are cleaning your carpets. Cleaning your carpets is essential to keep your house clean and fresh as they act as a filter to absorb the impurities and debris from the air. Dust particles tend to stick to the fibers of rugs and carpets and this keep the air fresh and clean. But you must make sure that your carpets and rugs are cleaned properly to maintain their quality and to keep your home healthy and fresh. Furthermore, let’s face it; carpet is EXPENSIVE!  Protect your investment.
​
There are a lot of options when it comes to cleaning your carpets. Here are some of the methods from the Tyler Tx Carpet Cleaning professionals that you can use to keep your carpets and rugs clean and fresh.

Vacuuming:
This is what you should do regularly to keep your carpets clean and the air fresh. Adjust the head of the vacuum to scrub the fibers of the carpet or rug without being too high or too low. It is very important to cover the whole carpet in short overlapping strokes to make sure that you are cleaning the fibers from different angles. Vacuum the carpets at least once a week or every day depending on the traffic.

Cleaning kits:
Buying your own carpet cleaning system might save you some money especially if you have light-colored carpets. With a lot of kids and pets in the house, you will probably feel the need to clean your carpets on a more regular basis and hiring a professional every time might not be the most cost effective option. Nevertheless, there are some things to consider. You need to make sure that the cleaning kit you are buying is suitable for your carpet and will not affect its quality. At the same time, these cleaning systems will never have the same cleaning power of the chemicals that professionals use.

Water extraction:
Hot water extraction or steam cleaning is an effective way to clean your carpets and rugs. A clean solution is injected into the fibers of the rug or the carpet and then left to dissolve the dust, debris and impurities. The solution is then absorbed by the machine to clean it thoroughly. This is something that is better left to the professionals as over wetting the carpet can damage the color, the quality and appearance of your carpet. It can also cause a change in the odor of your carpets and your home as a whole.

Dry approach:
This is a more expensive way to clean your carpets and rugs but is by far more effective. This works by spreading a dry absorbent compound that is later vacuumed. This is a better option for some people who are worried about over wetting their carpets which can damage the back lining.  The steam cleaning process that we do it not a concern because of the limited water we use.

Cleaning your carpets thoroughly will keep them in great condition for the longest period of time.  If you have questions about how to best clean your carpets, call us at 903-534-0390.
 

Air quality by having clean carpets
Having carpets and rugs at your home will add warmth and elegance to every corner. But at the same time, your carpets act as filters that keep a lot of things that you don’t want to have around at home.
Dust particles, pollen and other allergens tend to stick to your carpet and rug fibers. This means that what falls onto the carpet will stay in the carpet keeping the air in your room fresh and clean.  Rooms that have hard wood floors or tile floors lack this filter. The quality of the air will be way less as these allergens are free to roam the air in your home causing a lot of health related problems.

How to keep your filter clean:
Having a healthy home is everybody’s number one concern. Having carpets and rugs in the house is an effective way to keep the air clean and fresh as all the allergens stick to the fibers of your rugs and carpets. This means that you will have healthier air to breath. This pretty much resembles the way air and oil filters work in the car to maintain the quality of the car motor.
But keeping your filter healthy and clean is essential to maintain the quality of your car and this is what you need to think about in order to keep your house clean. The proper and regular cleaning of your rugs and carpets will not only remove the stuck impurities and debris but will also keep them in great condition for years to come.
Regular vacuuming and other traditional cleaning methods might be enough to remove some of the dust, pet hair, debris, pollen and other particles that affect the quality of the air in your house. But at the same time, these methods are not really effective for deep cleaning your rugs and carpets. Some of the debris will stay stuck to the fibers of your carpets. Over time, these particles will affect the quality of the air you breathe and will also affect the durability and appearance of your rugs.

Hot water extraction:
Hot water extraction works by flushing out all the debris out of your carpets and rugs to restore their condition and deep cleanse them. This is not something that you can do at home and is better left to the professionals who will not only clean your carpets and rugs of all the debris, but will also keep them looking good and new for years to come.
Using hot water extraction at least once a year or every 6 months will maintain the condition of your carpets and rugs. You can decide on the frequency depending on the level of traffic that your carpets and rugs are exposed to. When you hire qualified professionals, they will use only the safest chemicals and detergents to clean your carpets. They have all the necessary equipment needed to deep cleanse every kind of carpet without affecting its quality.

Ever hear the song "Just Breathe" by Pearl Jam.....
"Yes I understand
That every life must end
As we sit alone
I know someday we must go
Yeah I'm a lucky man
To count on both hands
The ones I love
Some folks just have one
Yeah others they got none
Stay with me

Let's just breathe"

Just leave it to the professionals at Go Color Pro Carpetology and hire the most qualified ones to deep cleanse your carpets and rugs; so that you can "Just Breathe".  #Carpet Cleaning Tyler TX

A lot of people are unaware that the causes of allergy are closer to them then what they could ever think of. Wiping away the dust and trying to use a lot of cleaning tools and chemicals is not enough if you are not cleaning your carpets properly. Using too many detergents and chemicals might clean your carpets but can cause a lot of health problems since these substances are inhaled every time you step foot into the room. 

​The most important causes of allergy are dust mites that are very difficult to remove using the traditional cleaning method. Dust mites are hard to spot and only reveal themselves when you start coughing or sneezing nonstop not knowing that these tiny creatures are the cause behind all your pain. Traditional cleaning that removes the dust particles that you can see is not enough to keep the dust mites away.

​Pet hair is also another allergy cause that makes your room so comfortable to remove. Pet hair will get stuck to the fibers of your carpets and rugs and will not be removed using traditional vacuuming.
Especially in spring, pollen can be a serious problem that will deprive you of a good night’s sleep. Pollen tends to stick in order to help plants and flowers reproduce but this time it sticks to your carpets and rugs. Inhaling pollen can cause serious breathing problems and a lot of discomfort. 

A lot of people think about removing allergens from their carpets and rugs not knowing that sometimes the chemicals they use can cause more damage. Using unsafe chemicals or too many detergents can cause discomfort especially with kids and allergic people around the house.

This is why the experts have come up with new ways and techniques to maintain the cleanliness of your carpets and rugs. These methods don’t depend on using a lot of chemicals and detergents that can affect your health on the short and long runs, but they are still very effective.
Safe treatments will include using hypoallergenic chemicals that are safe and free from perfumes and toxins.

These chemicals are perfectly safe to use around kids and pets and will not affect your health negatively. They are biodegradable and perfectly safe as they are free from volatile organic compounds.
Another safe treatment option is to deep extract the debris from the fibers of the carpet and rugs using hot water and steam. The heat will dissolve the stuck debris particles making them so much easier to remove and clean.

​Choosing the perfect cleaning service is a great investment. In addition to maintaining the cleanliness of your carpets and rugs, it is a great way to keep your house clean and safe for your kids and pets. It is very important to choose a reliable service provider when you are planning to clean your carpets and rugs. This is the only way that could keep your house allergens free.

Before you move out:

1. Remove all the nails and staples that you left on the walls, doors or ceilings. Use a magic eraser to clean all the marks but always test it first as it might remove some of the paint.
2. Clean the kitchen thoroughly. Unplug the fridge and clean the shelves. Wipe the interior of the fridge before putting them back in. Clean the oven using an oven cleaner. Make sure that the lamps don’t have any dead insects inside. Use an all-purpose cleaner to wipe the exterior and interior of cabinets. Always start from the top down. Use an old tooth brush to scrub the corners of the sink and the around the tap.

Now that you have followed these steps and returned your keys, it is time for a fresh start in your new place.
Before you move in:

1. Dust everything above your head, the ceilings, the fans and the chandeliers. If you decide doing this after you unpack, you will end up with a huge cloud of dust landing all over the place.
2. Wipe down and disinfect the walls. Remember that walls can get as dirty as floors. Use soap water to wipe the walls from side to side.
3. Use baking soda and water to clean the kitchen cabinets. This cleaning solution is strong enough to work on tough stains and is safe to use in the kitchen. Use vinegar to spray the corners. It will kill the germs and the bacteria.
4. Have your bathroom disinfected and deeply cleaned. You might consider replacing the toilet seats. Use a bathroom cleaner to clean the corners of your tub, shower and sink.
