Like any textile, carpets require proper care to maintain their original beauty. There are three main things that you can do to maintain your carpets: 1- vacuum regularly, 2- clean spills immediately, and 3- have your carpets professionally cleaned at least once a year.

What to do when a spill happens…

1.  Take up as much of the spill as possible using a towel.

2.  Gently press a clean cloth into the spill to remove as much moisture as possible. Don’t scrub! Scrubbing can damage the fiber and set the stain.

3.  Add warm water, and blot the stain until color stops transferring to the cloth.

4.  If the stain persists, make a spotting solution by mixing white vinegar and water in equal parts

5.  Apply the solution to the spill and let sit for 5 minutes, and then rinse with warm water. Repeat until all the solution is removed.

6.  Place paper towel on the spill to absorb the liquid. Weigh down the towels and let sit overnight.

7.  Once the carpet is dry, vacuum to restore the texture.

8.  If the stain persists, repeat step 3 through 7.
