It’s finally Spring- Time for Spring Cleaning From All Phase Carpet and Upholstery!
I hope all of you have had enough of winter and are ready to get back outside hiking, tending to gardens, and all the other activities you could not do since Fall. This time of year, we are back in full swing- all of our clients are calling for us to pick up their oriental and area rugs in Boulder and Broomfield County and have them cleaned of all the accumulated pounds of dust, dander and various spills that have occurred over the winter. Last year, our clients increased their use of our Oriental and area rug cleaning services by about 33% over the year before. This makes sense, as many Boulder County residents and business’s tend to maintain their valuable belongings better when the nations economy slows down- it is much cheaper to maintain a rug or carpet than it is to buy a new one:) If you are afraid to look at your rugs anymore after a long winter- just give All Phase Carpet and Upholstery a call at (303) 938-1793 so we can make your rugs and your home or business clean and fresh smelling again.
The Importance of Cleaning Oriental and Area Rugs Properly
Your oriental rug is a work of art that you fell in love with in the store, or perhaps your beautiful rug has been in your family for generations. Why would you ever trust a coupon guy to take care of your work of art? We have taken classes through the IICRC in oriental and area rug cleaning and have been cleaning rugs for over 15 years – make sure the company you choose has taken the time to learn how to properly take care of your rugs. The most important information we learn in classes is when to say no- if your rug is beyond cleaning or repair, we will tell you. We also have a relationship with another company that has been in the rug care business for decades- if we can not take care of your problem, we can send it to them to make sure you always get the very best service and care for your valuable rugs. Many of you bought your homes in the past decade and are just now realizing that your area rugs, wood, and tile floors need to be cleaned on a regular schedule to maximize your enjoyment of the flooring in your home. Cleaning of the rugs and tile also helps keep your home in a healthier state as all the dust and allergens just keep on building up in your home until they are removed by proper cleaning techniques. Woven rugs, especially hand knotted rugs are designed to hide dry soil. A few years ago, the Eureka company did a study and found that a 9 x 12 rug could hide 87 pounds of dirt! One test you can perform on your rugs is to turn the rug upside down on a clean hard surface and use a vacuum equipped with a beater bar to vacuum the back of the rug. Next, remove the rug from the surface and you will be able to see a portion of the soil that your rug is hiding! If you notice quite a bit of soil on the floor after performing this test, it is probably time to call us to have your rug cleaned. We can also evaluate your carpets, upholstery, and tile and grout to see if it is time to clean those surfaces as well. In times when the national economy is struggling, it is more important than ever to protect your very important investment in your rugs, upholstery, carpets and tile.
