How Can I Extend the Life of My Carpet?

Some people think that in order to keep their carpets looking pristine they need to be replaced periodically. This is a big job, creates a huge hassle, and costs a lot of money in communities like Las Olas. We’re here to tell you there is a better way. Routine maintenance can extend the life of your carpet for decades. The first line of defense is your vacuum cleaner. Depending on how much foot traffic your carpet sees, you want to vacuum two to three times a week. In addition, you should have your carpets professionally steam cleaned three times a year. Carpet restoration experts like Steam N’ Shine use high-temperature, pressurized cleaning solutions to break down dirt and stains. The dirty solution is then extracted from your carpet, leaving it to dry in a mere few hours. This process can restore your carpets to like-new condition, removing stains and dirt, leaving your carpet looking clean and smelling fresh.

In addition to regular vacuuming and steam cleaning, we recommend carpet protection like Scotchguard. This treatment will make your carpet stain and moisture resistant, leaving your carpet easier to clean and less susceptible to damage. Scotchguard forms a barrier that dirt and liquids have a hard time penetrating. Spills can be simply wiped away and dirt can be vacuumed up before it gets trapped in the carpet fibers.

A new option when it comes to carpet protection is the Home Depot’s new line of Lifeproof carpeting. This brand of carpet features superior stain protection called Nanoloc Spill Shield that is designed to never wash off or wear away. Lifeproof carpets also feature a 25-year warranty against stain and soil. With this type of carpet, steam cleaning only needs to be done every 12 to 18 months.

Moving In or Out? Time to Steam Clean Your Carpets!

If you’re moving out of a Las Olas apartment or rental and want to get your security deposit back, steam cleaning your carpets is a great place to start. Clean carpets are a major factor in the overall cleanliness of your apartment, and landlords often look to this aspect when evaluating the return of a security deposit. At Steam N’ Shine we steam clean your carpets with a pressurized, high-temperature cleaning solution, as well as spot treating specific areas. Whether general dirt from high-traffic areas, food or drink spills around your eating areas, even rust stains, in stains, and wax drips, we can restore your carpet.

If you’re moving in to a new apartment or rental, the old tenants may leave things behind like unpleasant odors or unsightly stains on your carpet. Steam and Shine can remove those stains, restore your carpet, and even sanitize it to remove mildew, bacteria, and odors. As always, customers are urged to take advantage of our 100% odor removal guarantee. A thorough cleaning and sanitizing will also kill dust mites trapped in your carpet, giving you peace of mind, and making life easier for allergy-sufferers.

My Carpet Smells Bad, What Can I Do About It?

It can be very embarrassing to have a smelly home, making it uncomfortable for guests. It can also be bad for your health, as those odors may come from bacteria. Air fresheners can only cover up the smell so much. Sprays like Febreze offer a temporary solution, but can’t mitigate the underlying cause of the odor. The best way to deal with smelly carpet is to hire a professional steam cleaning service that also specializes in odor removal. Steam N’ Shine offers deodorizing services that are specially designed to treat common odors. We can eliminate smoke smells, pet odor, and our treatments also kill odor-causing bacteria. We offer a 100% odor removal guarantee. Household cleaners can’t compare to the power of professional-grade deodorizers and sanitizers.
