Millions or rather billions of homeowners around the world have carpets in their heavenly abodes. Very few alternatives provide plush comfort like carpets do – they create a cosy ambience and exude elegant aesthetics. You can actually walk barefoot, be it summers or winters, and take a relaxing and comfy stroll around the house. They are a great choice when it comes to flooring, and can do wonders to any room. Just imagine you enter a boring and neutral hued room and your eyes fall on a colourful, intricately designed woven carpet or a deep rich hued furry carpet — what’s going to be your reaction? The very first thing you do is complement the homeowner for the pretty carpet. Now, do you get the picture as to how important a carpet can sometimes (mostly) be?!
But, as important carpets may be, there’s an even more important thing to keep in mind. And that’s the proper care and maintenance that your carpets expect from homeowners like you. A series of mishaps and stubborn stains may have taught you a hard-earned lesson about the importance of maintaining a good carpet cleaning routine. You should keep it clean on a regular basis on your own, and have it professionally cleaned every 6 to 18 months, or whenever the need arises. Just contact a well-known company that offers carpet cleaning in Adelaide. Bensons Cleaning Services is one such example, and have been in this industry since 2004. They use the best of equipment and manpower to get your carpets free of all those stubborn spills, stench and stains.
Reasons why your carpets suffer during parties:
Parties are all about dining and wining in the company of your loved ones. The celebrations and dinner parties at home surely make your evenings more enjoyable and memorable. But, needless to say, dealing with the aftermath of parties is not a fun experience at all. And it’s even more torturous for your innocent carpets. The best solution to combat the problem is — calling over a professional to help with the carpet cleaning or for tile and grout cleaning in Adelaide. They help you with this first chore that’s lined up for you on the after party morning.
These are the few carpet stains that you can’t help avoiding during parties:
- Food Stains: Food stains are most common (and rather inevitable) when you are having a party in a carpeted room. Be it your special spaghetti sauce or mustard or gravy or even ketchup, a tiny spill takes no time to turn into a big stain when walked on. Food colours tend to last long and the stains hardens into a permanent one. There may be bits of food that get stuck to the fibres of the carpet and develop a stale odour the next day. Doesn’t that sound gross?
- Wine spills: Red wine spills are infamous for being one of the most stubborn stains ever. The burgundy pigment present in the wine is due to the presence of tannins. It can instantly dye any fabric that it comes in contact with. We can’t even imagine the horror if you have a white carpet! So, it’s very important that you remove these stains ASAP.
- Dirt and muck: God save you if your party is held on a day that has the sky raining cats and dogs. All the invitees are going to enter with rain boots filled with dirt, muck water etc. and you can’t do anything about it. No matter how much your guests wipe their feet on the door mats, there’s bound to be dirty footprints and wet stains on your once clean carpet.
- Vomit: In case your party continues beyond a decent time, chances are people will be too drunk to realize what’s going on. Some of them may be too wasted to even drive back home. And there’s always that sloshed friend who throws up on the carpet. It then becomes unbearable to bear the smell, let alone scrub it clean.
We all have been there, done that. Among all the hustle bustle of parties, it’s impossible to protect your carpets and rugs from the above dangers. As a host, you are more into making your guests happy. And the next morning seems like something straight out of a horror movie for you. But, no worries, call over the professionals, and get your home (and carpet) back to being clean, comfortable and charming!
