If a householder or business owner in Brighton & Hove wants to extend the life of their carpets, they need to clean it often. A dirty carpet can contain soil and other debris that will wear your carpet's fibres.

Every time you walk on your dirty carpet, you are grinding the soil into the fibres, permanently scratching and wearing them. Carpet cleaning will remove these damaging particles.

But how often should you get it cleaned?

How often you clean your carpet depends on several factors. You must consider how many people are in your home, if you have children, if you have cats or dogs and whether or not smokers are in your home.

For example, if you have a house with two adults, you should clean your carpet every 6 to 12 months. If those two people are smokers, you should clean it every four months. If you have children or pets in your home, you should clean it at least every 6 months and if you have kids and pets, you better make it every three months.

If you have an office, retail, hotel or commercial unit in the Brighton area, then it will depend on the amount of traffic that particular areas of your carpet get.
