To help you maintain your new carpet’s good looks, you’ll need to take good care of it, maintain it as well as you can, and clean it properly. The key to good maintenance is to vacuum regularly to avoid particles of loose dirt and dust working their way into the carpet pile where they can act abrasively on the fibres and discolour the carpet.

Man-made fibre and wool carpets should be vacuumed regularly as soon as they are laid.

  • Vacuum regularly at least 2-3 times a week.
  • A large, strong doormat will reduce dirt from outside being spread around the house.
  • Removing your shoes at the front door will lessen the impact of everyday wear and tear.
  • Avoid where possible, laying light coloured carpets next to external entrances.
  • Man-made fibre and wool carpets should be vacuumed regularly as soon as they are laid.

Loop Pile Carpet

Loop Pile carpets should be vacuumed with a cylinder cleaner using the suction head only. Avoid using beater heads and brushes – they will catch and lift the fibres, and eventually, this will give your carpet a bobbled or felted appearance.

Cut Pile Carpet

Cut Pile carpets should ideally be vacuumed with an upright vacuum cleaner with a beater bar and brush. You can also opt to use a cylinder vacuum cleaner with a similar attachment.

Soft Deep Pile Carpet

We recommend a vacuum cleaner with an adjustable height for Soft Deep Pile carpets, to ensure proper airflow over the pile surface, during cleaning.

Cleaning your Carpets

In a busy house with a young family, pets, or plenty of visitors, spills and stains can happen at any time. The good news is that carpets can be cleaned easily and simply by following the recommended guidelines below, alternatively, if you have a wool carpet please follow our wool care guide below.

To clean off any remaining stains, blot with a clean, damp cloth.

  • Tackle spillages and stains immediately, don’t leave them until later or allow them to dry.
  • Blot away all the liquid stain with dry kitchen towel or a clean white dry cloth.
  • Semi-solid substances should be removed with a plastic spatula.
  • Remember to be patient – don’t rub vigorously or over-soak the stain.
  • Always work from the outside of the stain inwards to minimise it spreading.
  • To clean off any remaining stains, blot with a clean, damp cloth.

I have been very impressed with All Aspects Flooring from initial contact through to the finished new flooring laid in my kitchen. A special mention goes to Ashley who made an extra trip to put all my white goods back in situ for me. Thank you
