Why do carpets need to be cleaned?
If it’s been weeks, months, or even years since the last time you gave your carpet a thorough clean, chances are there is an unbelievable amount of dirt, dust, and other microorganisms accumulated in it, causing the air in your offices and homes to be impure.
Why should carpets be professionally cleaned?
Giving your carpets a professional clean at least twice a year also grants you the added benefit of prolonging the life of your carpet, making your investments worthwhile.
While regular vacuuming may be sufficient to keep the surface of your carpet clean, there are many more benefits you and everyone under the roof can reap from a professionally treated carpet, that goes beyond just a fresher look.

While our weapon of choice is Dry Carpet Cleaning, there are also a couple more methods the professionals use in the market today.
Hot Water Extraction Cleaning
Known as ‘Steam Carpet Cleaning’, it emphasises on the use of high-pressure hot water to allow for dirt to be efficiently dissolved.
Carpet Shampooing
Similar to how our hair may feel uncomfortable and sticky without a proper wash after shampooing, carpets are no different.
Encapsulation
Professionals believe this to be a ‘level-up’ to the Carpet Shampooing method, as it performs similarly while using lesser water. In fact, Encapsulation carpet cleaning uses 80% less liquid than conventional carpet shampoo.
Bonnet Cleaning
Bonnet Cleaning for carpets yields great results with a heavy-duty motorised machine that effectively absorbs dirt from the carpet. It’s convenience brought about high demand in high foot-traffic areas such as hotels and restaurants.
Different Cleaning Methods for Different Carpet Sizes
There are many solutions on how to clean carpets yourself. But DIY methods using home remedies often involve investing a lot more time, while results often vary; with some cases even making the carpet smell worse after cleaning.
While you can attempt to wash smaller ones on your own, bigger carpets and carpeted floors, such as those in the office, would often be better off with professional carpet cleaners.

Determining carpet sizes
While it’s perfectly natural to shop for carpets based on how beautiful it compliments our dining area or bedrooms, there are certain ‘guidelines’ that you should consider abiding by, just to be on the safe side.
These are the recommended carpet size according to the size of your rooms:
Carpet – Room
3’x 5′ – 5′ x 7′
5′ x 8′ – 7′ x 10′
8′ x 10′ – 10′ x 12′
9′ x 12′ – 11′ x 14′
12′ x 15′ – 14′ x 17′
If you’re unsure about the sizes of your carpet, fret not as there are many ways to get the answer.
Using a measuring tape, simply measure your carpet by its length, then breadth in feet. If you don’t have a measuring tape lying around for a precise measurement, you may use an average two-seater sofa, which spans no longer than 6 feet in length. So if your carpet more or less fits when compared side-by-side, that carpet is more than likely measuring 4 by 6 ft.
Likewise, a three-seater sofa is roughly 8 feet long, and if your carpet measures just slightly longer, it’s probably a 6 by 9 ft carpet.
