Carpet Cleaning Essentials

Why Carpet Cleaning Matters: 
Regular carpet cleaning not only improves appearance but also enhances air quality and helps your floors last longer. Dust, dirt, and allergens get trapped in carpet fibers—routine cleaning ensures a healthier space for your family or team.

• Vacuuming: For most households, vacuum high-traffic areas two to three times a week and other areas weekly. The best vacuum for carpet cleaning features height adjustments and a rotating brush (beater bar) to remove deep-seated dirt. If you have pets, a vacuum with a HEPA filter is recommended to capture dander and fine particles. 

Explore area rug care for additional cleaning tips.

• Wool Carpet Care: Wool carpets are a sustainable, luxurious choice, but require gentle care. Avoid harsh chemicals—never use bleach, ammonia, or high-pH solutions, which can break down the natural fibers. For wool, choose a suction-only vacuum or set your vacuum to its gentlest brush mode. Always opt for carpet cleaners specifically rated “wool-safe.”
• Products to Avoid: Never use alkaline or bleach-based products on wool carpets, as these can cause irreversible fiber damage and color fading. Stick to solutions recommended by your carpet or cleaner’s manufacturer for best results.
• Cleaning Coffee Stains on Carpet: Accidental spills can happen to anyone. For carpet coffee stain removal, act quickly. Blot (don’t rub) with a white cloth to absorb as much liquid as possible. Then, mix one tablespoon of mild dish soap, one tablespoon of white vinegar, and two cups of warm water. Dab the mixture onto the stain, working outward from the center, and blot with a dry cloth. Repeat until the stain is gone. For tough spots, consult a professional or visit our blog for stain removal tips.

By following these cleaning tips and using a high-quality vacuum, your carpet will stay bright and beautiful. Our San Rafael showroom features a huge range of premium carpets in many colors and patterns. Can’t find your desired shade? Ask us about custom dye services for the perfect match.

Customer Testimonial
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"We recently worked with Ken’s Carpets and Flooring to replace the carpets in our entire home. From the initial introductions to the completed job, we received the best possible service throughout. Ken took the time to talk us through all the various options available to us. There was never any hard sell, to the contrary, Ken worked with us to stay in budget. They have so many different options to choose from and Ken and his wife gave great advice throughout the selection process. When the weekend came for installation, Ken’s team arrived on time and completed the job in the most efficient manner. They were so careful with all our furniture and with our home. We are beyond thrilled with the finished product and cannot recommend Ken and his team highly enough. It also felt great to give our business to a local, family-owned company."
