One of the easiest way you can look out for your carpet is by not wearing shoes in the house. Shoes bring in dirt that sometimes you can even see but it can build up in your carpet. If you don’t want to ask visitors to take their shoes off then why not have good quality mats at the door so they can wipe their feet instead?

Second, and this one won’t be much of a surprise, but hoovering regularly will make a huge difference.

Another small change you can make that will help improve your flooring is a protection spray. These sprays can be a life saver in busy households, however it’s worth testing the spray out in a small area of carpet that is hidden away. This is to make sure the spray is suitable for your carpet and won’t damage or stain anything.

When it comes to spill and stains, it’s important not to let anything sit on the carpet. It needs to be mopped up as soon as possible. And don’t forget, always use a blotting motion, don’t wipe it backwards and forwards.
