Many people choose to decorate their home with furniture, artwork and rugs. They each add style and personality to the homes décor. When you pay good money for an area rug such as a Persian or Oriental rug you want to be sure that they are cared for. An area rug can come in many sizes and styles to fit whatever style you are looking for. The great thing is that if you care for them properly you can have the rug for a long time and it will remain looking great. There are people that are not sure how to properly care for their rugs and they tend to roll them up and out of the way when they are doing their deep cleaning. That is a terrible mistake and you want to add your rugs to the cleaning as well.
 

Steam Green Carpet Cleaning Outline the Care Steps to Take to Extend the Life Of Your Area Rugs

Have Area Rugs Cleaned Professionally: One of the things that you want to always do with anything that is made from any type of fabric is to have them cleaned. That goes for upholstery, drapes and especially your rugs. You spent quite a bit of money on the rug so taking the time to have them cleaned professionally is a great way to extend the life of the rug. The professional cleaning will get the deep set in dirt out of the fibers. We also will be able to treat the stains that are sure to have been spilled since that last cleaning.
Vacuum Area Rugs: Another way to ensure that rugs are kept looking their best is to run the vacuum. Some people make the mistake of choosing to roll up the rugs when they run the vacuum. The problem is that you have just rolled all the dirt up with it. The dirt needs to be removed from the rugs on a regular basis. If the dirt is left on the rug it can start to buildup and cause the fibers to collapse. Once that happens there is nothing you can do to correct it. If you like the feel of the nice soft rug be sure to run the vacuum regularly.
Rotate & Shift Area Rugs: You have probably set up the room and laid out the rug. Once it is in place you don’t want to move it since you finally got it just right. The problem is that if you allow the rug to stay in that exact location you are going to end up with areas that are more worn out. These are known as high traffic areas that are where people tend to travel through the home more often. These will be dirtier and can also cause damage to the fibers over time. The best way to stop this from happening is to be sure that you rotate the rugs to even out the wear and tear.
