Wintertime is not very kind to interior carpets and rugs. For Toronto area homeowners, keeping and maintaining their interior carpets can seem like a full-time job, no matter what they seem to tell their family members about taking their shoes off when they walk in the house.
That’s because when you have to take your shoes off and on when going outside during the winter, especially once the snow has already fallen and you have ice, slush, freezing rain, road salt, and even sand being tracked in and out, eventually there will come a time when somebody just runs inside for a quick second and decides to not take their shoes off and scoots across carpeting to grab their keys, gloves, or hat they forgot.
The older carpets get, the more lax people tend to be with them. This can complicate the process of taking care of those carpets throughout the winter season.
When you have dirt, sand, salt, and who knows what else being tracked in on boots, even if those family members take off their shoes as soon as they walk in the door, their socks are probably stepping on a whole array of foreign contaminants and then tracking those onto your carpets.
Even bare feet can track a lot of debris onto interior rugs and carpets. So while you may be doing your part to help protect those carpets, and even though you may be vacuuming more frequently during the winter, it is not really going to be having the kind of impact that you expect in keeping them clean and looking like new for as long as possible.
That’s why a professional carpet cleaning service is essential for any Toronto area homeowner who wants to keep their carpets looking their best for as long as possible. Professional carpet cleaning services like Royal Interior Cleaning can help maintain your wall-to-wall carpeting and area rugs throughout winter and the inevitable wrath that comes with it.
