SERVPRO Cleans Carpets in Knoxville Properties Offering Extended Usage and Appearance

For as common as carpeting is to Knoxville homes, it is still very surprising how limited homeowner knowledge is regarding proper maintenance of this functional enhancement to their residences. While anyone can appreciate that a clean carpet looks better than a soiled one, there are multiple benefits to having the carpets in your home cleaned professionally, and to better understand the ways that you can keep these areas of your house looking like they should throughout the times in between these cleanings.  

Understanding what to do to keep carpets in your home looking nice can help you to reduce the need for frequent professional carpet cleaning in your Knoxville home. It begins with the upkeep, which can be something as basic as ensuring that the area gets vacuumed regularly to help dislodge dirt and debris from the upper layers of the fibers in the flooring. Other suggestions to keep a fresh look for your carpet is pilating the fibers to prevent matting, spot removal and even moving around the furniture in high traffic rooms semi-regularly to prevent wear patterns. More and more homeowners are placing slidable discs under the legs of heavy furniture to readjust their positioning for carpet cleaning and for help eliminate ugly indentations in the pile.

Ultimately, these practices are only intended to keep your carpets looking nice in between professional cleanings by our SERVPRO IICRC-certified technicians. These services are necessary for the areas of your home with this type of flooring because the fibers in the material are magnets for dust, debris, pet hair, dirt, and many other soils. The upkeep mentioned above caters to the very top layer of this flooring and is not sufficient to clean the entire length of the fiber down to the base of the material. Fortunately, professional cleaning can offer you this level of cleanliness.  

There are multiple approaches to cleaning, which depend both on the style of carpet you have as well as the level of soiling that is present. For difficult jobs, especially after a water damaging incident we can use our truck-mounted system for carpet cleaning. For short pile carpets, bonnet cleaning is a common practice of our SERVPRO team. Dry cleaning aids in preserving colors that are prone to fade with the wear they experience. The Showcase Premiere Cleaning is the top of the line, implementing the most aggressive methods of cleaning to deeply penetrate all types of carpets and stands as the most effective approach in the industry. Our carpet cleaning also deodorizes the surface leaving a fresh scent.

When you conclude that your carpets are ready for professional treatment, give SERVPRO of Rocky Hill / Sequoyah Hills / South Knoxville a call. Whether it is a recommended annual cleaning or an emergency that requires an immediate response, our technicians are ready to help by calling (865) 862-8907.
