To keep the carpet cleaning nightmare at bay, here are major mistakes that you can avoid to provide longer and healthy life to your carpet.
Too much Waiting For The Cleaning
Always remember the ‘2-Times’ formula for your carpet in your whole life. Two times a week for regular vacuuming and dusting and two times calling or hiring professional carpet cleaning services can vehemently save your carpet from any deadly mishaps.
If you have noticed any spills, try to rub it with a soft cloth at the correct time. If you have invited guests or relatives at your house, try to clean the mess at the right time (next day or hour). Always remember that your speed and regularity of cleaning can make your carpet to live a long life.

By acting quickly, you are also diminishing the probability being stubborn of the stains.
Carpet Rubbing
Do you know this is one of the top crimes that many homeowners do to their carpets? Are you one of them?
Well, fret not!
Most people start frantically rubbing or scrubbing with a piece of cloth when they spot any kind of spill on their carpet and this helps the stain or particles go deeper than they ever had been. This forces the stain go deeper and become more stubborn or difficult to shoo away which may also become responsible for the discolouration. The same act can also damage the quality of the carpet fibres.
Avoid or say never use scrubbing brushes or tools.
Not Fully Aware Of The Carpet Cleaning Products
A serious damage or permanent ruin can be the case when using stronger cleaning chemicals. Never neglect reading the label carefully, as there are ample products which may not suit your carpet type. The carpet fabric or fibre also decides the usage of the type of chemical. Understand the methods before applying any DIY methods on your dear carpet; it may not take the harsh treatment.

But if you do not have any choice nor time, take a small hidden area of the carpet and perform a small spot test before applying the chemical on the main stain.
Cleaning Your Carpet With A Coloured Cloth
Trust me beauty is not the case when it is your carpet cleaning tool(s). Never select coloured cloth or multicoloured cloth to clean your carpet because the dye of the coloured cloth may run and spot the certain area of the carpet.
It should not become a ‘doubling the mess’ story!
Doing The Over Dampening
Understand the type of the carpet fabric. Not every carpet needed to be drowned to get cleaned. In fact, over drowning or dampening may increase the moisture content between the fibres and this may result to discolouration. The damp odour is another issue which is consequent to this act.
