Often those who have a carpet believe, mistakenly, that they can independently carry out all necessary cleaning and maintenance operations.
It is the traditions that are handed down from generation to generation that inculcate the idea that, in one's own homes, there is everything you need to wash this piece of furniture yourself. But is not so.
Speaking with Gino Piricò of the Carpet Workshops, we tried to find out more about the importance of assisting professionals in this area. In reality, the operations we carry out every day "do not concern the cleaning of the carpet, which is quite different, but it is only ordinary maintenance.
Professional washing ", he continues," is not an optional, but should be
a forced choice for hygienic purposes.
At least every two or three years a Carpet Cleaners should be performed to sanitize the carpet, so that the wool and materials that make it up do not deteriorate”.
A very important aspect of cleaning treatments is indeed this: their purpose is not only to guarantee healthier environments in
- Our homes, but also to make our carpets last longer.
- Why can they deteriorate with dust? “Because
The carpet has a reticular base structure; this grid is filled with nodes. Over the years, the overlapping of the dust in the base creates a state
of rigidity in the lattice that, losing its elasticity, tends to create the carpet micro-spots, as well as a hygienic problem; therefore, Carpet Cleaning Coventry is also a condition for safeguarding the building
Steps
Why is it important to rely on professionals? "Because", as Piricò recalls, "each carpet, having peculiar characteristics, must be analyzed as a case in itself; there is never a standardized path, and this is what makes our work different”.
But what is cleaning in practice?? Piricò told us how things work at the Carpet Workshops.
"Before washing, each carpet is beaten with a professional beater to remove the bulk of the dust, which otherwise, mixing with water, would make our work more difficult. Subsequently, we wash them with specific detergents, strictly by hand; the only machine we use is to subtract 70-80% of water from the fabric. The semi-humid carpet, in case of favorable temperature, is exposed to the outside while, in situations where the weather is adverse, it is placed in thermo regulated rooms.
The carpet is then brushed and softened; the fringes are treated separately, as they represent the most delicate part. Finally, a quality control is performed and, if the result does not satisfy us, we repeat the entire cycle of operations, without this affecting the final price agreed with the customer, because our goal is that the Coventry Carpet Cleaning”.
The costs of washing are not prohibitive: it is an operation that takes place every two or three years, and, for the same treatment, the cost does not change as the value of the carpet increases.
- The collateral damage of the do-it-yourself
- Do not use professionals and specialized facilities for washing carpets
- Can even be counterproductive.
- As noted by Gino Piricò, the precautions that must be taken in these operations are many: "not everyone would be able to understand how long the carpet can stand in water, which specific detergents to use, how much
- These must act on the stain ..."
Another problem is that of space: not everyone has the opportunity to let them dry on the outside. Then we think about the difficulty of handling them:
Piricò reminds us that “a dry carpet weighs 6-7 kg per square meter; if someone thought to wash it at home, the weight would triple”.
Finally, there is the question of the products: "often we use foams that simply push the dust even further into the carpet, ending up worsening the hygienic state".
