Many homeowners believe spring is the best season to kick their cleaning routine into high gear. However, winter can be a messy season in cities like Atlanta, where the lowest temperatures of the year occur in January and the highest rainfall totals are typically seen in February. Mud and dirt are tracked in and out of your home, along with the remnants of dry leaves and dormant grasses. If your carpets begin to look dingy after all of this wear and tear, consider a winter carpet cleaning service to brighten up your home.
Preparing Your Flooring for Winter
To eliminate some of the increased dirt and debris entering your home in the winter, protect your entryways by adding walk-off mats. Martha Stewart recommends a wood or rubber mat right outside of your doorways for wiping off mud and dirt. An inside mat or throw rug soaks up winter dampness. To remove built up dirt from the mats, vacuum them regularly. Also, invest in a good pair of slippers or inside-only footwear for your family members. Wet, soiled rain boots and sneakers should be exchanged for clean footwear when entering the house.
Regular Maintenance
In the winter we all spend more time indoors, so it's more important than ever to keep our living environments clean and healthy. Tracking holiday decorations and presents in and out of the house can also leave a trail of debris on top of the accumulated dust and dirt stemming from everyday life. The combination of high-energy kids and longer indoor play times can also wreak havoc on your flooring. During this cool season, it's important to maintain a regular vacuuming schedule. Should any stains or spills occur, remember to blot them up quickly to prevent permanent carpet damage.
Winter Carpet Cleaning
Although many people might not think of having their carpets cleaned in winter, there are several advantages to hiring a professional. If you're preparing your home for holiday guests, an early winter carpet cleaning will help your home to look beautiful throughout the season. Also, later in the season, your carpets may begin to show signs of dirt buildup.
