Carpet care Spain - extend the life of carpets

A good carpet should last for many years, and with the right maintenance, it will stay looking good throughout its lifetime. The advice below is of a general nature and you should always follow your carpet manufacturer's instructions if they are different to these suggestions.

Costa Blanca Carpets offer a complete carpet and upholstery cleaning service.

We can clean fitted carpets or loose carpets at your home using the very latest steam extraction equipment, or if it is more convenient, we can take away loose carpets and clean them in our workrooms. We specialize in the cleaning of Oriental carpets including; Super Washed Chinese carpets, Indian, Pakistan and Turkish carpets, as well as Spanish and British made carpets.

If in doubt consult a professional or test a small area first.

General Cleaning
Every day, vacuum the carpet using an upright vacuum cleaner. (Costa Blanca Carpets supply the famous Oreck high powered upright vacuum cleaners)

Professional Cleaning
Have the carpets cleaned by a professional cleaning company when necessary to ensure all dust and grit are completely removed. (Costa Blanca Carpets offer a professional cleaning service)

Furniture Marks
Move furniture to slightly different positions to reduce damage due to the weight of the furniture. Also place plastic "coasters" (available from Costa Blanca Carpets & home improvement shops) under the feet of furniture to spread the weight.

Stain Removal
Use appropriate stain remover for most stains and types of carpet. Check suitability before use to avoid damaging carpet fibres or colouring.

Sunlight
Sunlight can cause carpets to fade. Close curtains or blinds when strong sunlight is shining directly on to the carpet. Also see the Solarshield section of this site.
