4 Major Carpet Cleaning Myths And The Truth Behind Them

There are a lot of myths out there about carpet cleaning. We’ve all heard them—you can clean your carpet yourself, you need to replace your carpet every few years, and so on. But which ones are actually true? Here are 4 major carpet cleaning myths and the truth behind them:

Myth: Carpet cleaning doesn’t really work

Fact: When done correctly, professional Oahu carpet cleaning can actually extend the life of your carpet by removing dirt and stains that can cause wear and tear over time. In fact, most carpets need to be cleaned every six months to one year to maintain their appearance and durability.

Myth: It’s cheaper to buy your own carpet cleaning machine than hire a professional carpet cleaner

Fact: While some homeowners may be able to save money with a DIY approach, it’s important to remember that when it comes to getting your carpets professionally cleaned, you’re paying for expertise, experience, and specialized equipment. So, while you may save some money upfront by purchasing your own equipment, if you plan on keeping your carpets clean on a regular basis, then hiring a professional could end up being less expensive in the long run because they have all the tools, resources and expertise to clean your carpets on the go.

Myth: You need to replace your carpet every 3-5 years if you want it to last

Fact: This myth is also false! Depending on how much traffic goes through your home and how much wear and tear those carpets have taken, they could last anywhere from 7-15 years before needing replacement.

Myth: You should vacuum your carpets every day

Fact: In fact, vacuuming often can do more harm than good for your carpets by causing them to wear out faster. Instead of vacuuming every day, try to vacuum at least once per week and use a soft brush attachment on your vacuum if possible. Don’t forget to use the “bare floor” setting on your vacuum as well! This will ensure that you don’t get any unnecessary wear marks on your carpeting as well as help minimize dust mites and allergens!
