North Shore people, get ready to roll up your sleeves. We’re diving into carpet cleaning north shore style click reference. This topic gets dirtier every day than my kid does after a trip to the park. Myths, misconceptions and misunderstandings are as common as dust bunnies underneath the couch. Here’s a scoop to keep your shag looking fresh, your Berber glowing, and pile soft.

Let’s start off with an outrageous statement: Carpets should only be cleaned when they are dirty. If that was true, I wouldn’t wash my dishes until after a full year of five-course dinners. You can find allergens in your carpets or even last year’s cookie crumbs. The same as waiting until they look dirty to brush your teeth, you should not wait for them to become filthy.

Let’s add another: all stains are equal. In truth, not every stain requires a Herculean attempt to remove. Some stains can be removed with vinegar or mild detergent. Aerosols or drenching can make some things worse.

Beware the myth about vacuuming too much ruining carpets. Vacuuming for carpets is like exercising – regular can be good, but obsessive is not. My grandmother would vacuum every day, as a form of cardio before Zumba became a thing. She kept her vacuum on low and her carpets lasted much longer than the average sitcom.

There’s also the myth that carpet cleaning shrinks your carpets. The only way this is true is if you use a cleaner that plays around with temperature and gives it a steamy bath. The majority of modern cleaning methods are kind to fibers. It is important to note that you should not clean your carpet using boiling water, unless it’s for a huge pot of spaghetti.

Apparently, expensive machines are needed to achieve perfect cleaning. This is the type of story that companies selling these machines will tell. You could say you need to fly a helicopter from Seattle to your family. This can be achieved by using a cleaner that is well-reviewed or even DIY.
