A bedroom carpet will automatically enhance the vibe of your bedroom by a thousand folds.

If you are hesitating in investing in a carpet because you think it’d get dirty and will be high on maintenance.

- Vacuum: Vacuuming your carpet once a week is more than enough. Dust regularly enters the house and settles very quickly on a carpet, which is why you need to whip it out once in a while and run a vacuum cleaner over it every week. Vacuuming the carpet doesn’t only take away the dust and dirt but also small rocks that collect on your carpet over time.
- Steam cleaning: You can’t clean your carpet by yourself every time. To keep carpets fresh and clean, a deep cleansing treatment is a must, and for that, you need to book professional carpet cleaning services. Steam cleaning will ensure the steam penetrates every fibre of the carpet and cleanses it thoroughly.
- Kick off your footwear: Whether you have kids in the house or guests coming over, imply the ‘no shoe policy’ in your house, especially if you have carpets. When your guests enter your house without their footwear, they will not only protect your carpet but will also be able to enjoy them in a better way.
- Use rugs and mats: Placing a rug or a mat on top of your carpet can be extensive, but it goes a long way in protecting your carpets, which in turn increases the longevity of your carpets. You can place rugs and mats on carpets in the areas of your house with higher traffic such as the living room and bedroom.
- Opt for wise carpet colour: When buying a new carpet, consider the colour. Darker carpets can easily hide dust, but if you have pets in the house, the carpets will easily show their fur shed. Whereas, lighter carpets can hide pet hair but are easy to stain. Choose carpets depending on your lifestyle.
