Top Tips to Keep Your Carpets Cleaner Between Cleans

Regular and more frequent vacuuming contributes to healthier and cleaner carpet fibres.

Keep Carpets Cleaner Between Professional Carpet Cleaning Services

Carpets are one of the most used—and most overlooked—surfaces in any home or workplace. They absorb footsteps, spills, dirt, pet hair, allergens, and daily wear. While routine professional carpet cleaning services are essential for maintaining hygiene and prolonging carpet life, there’s plenty you can do between visits to keep your carpets fresher, cleaner, and looking their best.

At Cleaníge Ltd, we believe in helping customers protect their investment. Here are our expert tips to maintain cleaner carpets between your scheduled deep cleans.

Vacuum Regularly (More Often Than You Think)

Regular vacuuming is the simplest and most effective way to keep carpets clean.

For most homes and workplaces, this means:

• 2–3 times a week for high-traffic areas

• Daily if you have pets

• Weekly for low-traffic rooms

  
  

Frequent vacuuming removes dust, crumbs, grit, and allergens before they can embed deep into the carpet fibres.

Why it matters:

Embedded dirt wears down fibres faster and makes stains harder to remove—even for professionals.

Tackle Spills Immediately

The sooner you act, the better the outcome.

• Blot, don’t rub — Rubbing forces the spill deeper into the fibres.

• Use clean white cloths to avoid colour transfer.

• Apply a small amount of warm water or a mild carpet-safe solution if needed.

  
  

For oily, coloured, or stubborn spills, avoid DIY chemicals—they can cause permanent damage. Instead, keep the area clean and book a professional carpet cleaning service like Cleaníge.

Use Door Mats and Shoe Policies

One of the biggest causes of dirty carpets is what gets tracked in from outdoors. Adding practical habits can significantly extend the life of your carpet:

• Place door mats at every entrance.

• Use runner rugs in hallways.

• Encourage a no-shoes policy indoors.

Why it matters:

Most carpet dirt comes from outside. Preventing it is easier than removing it.

Our Carpet Cleaning Technicians use a trusted 4-stage process to completely remove embedded dirt and stains.

Add Area Rugs in High-Traffic Zones

Areas like hallways, living rooms, office entrances, and break rooms experience the most foot traffic. Area rugs and runners help absorb wear and dirt before it reaches your carpet. These are easier to wash, replace, or clean more frequently.

Freshen Carpets with Gentle Deodorising Methods

To keep carpets smelling clean:

• Sprinkle bicarbonate of soda and leave for 20–30 minutes before vacuuming.

• Increase ventilation to reduce trapped odours.

• Use pet-friendly carpet fresheners if needed.

  
  

Avoid strong chemical sprays, as they may cling to fibres or cause buildup.

Move Furniture Occasionally

Furniture dents and trapped dust build up when heavy items remain in the same spot for too long. Occasionally moving furniture:

• Allows you to vacuum hidden areas

• Prevents compressed fibres

• Spreads wear more evenly

Book Professional Carpet Cleaning Regularly

Even with the best home care, carpets still collect deep dirt, allergens, bacteria, and residue that only professional carpet cleaners can remove.

For homes: Every 6–12 months

For workplaces: Every 3–6 months

For households: With pets or allergies, every 3 months

Regular professional cleaning helps:

• Extend carpet lifespan

• Improve air quality

• Restore carpet pile, softness, and appearance

• Remove deep-seated odours
