How to clean carpets at home step by step with home remedies


Bacteria, pollen debris, dust and dead skin coexist on a carpet. Find out how to properly clean carpets to avoid infection or disease.

Keeping carpets clean and germ-free can seem like a challenge. Especially if you have children or animals at home. Here are several options for dry cleaning carpets in the comfort of your home. This comes in handy if your rug is large.

In another article we already saw  how to clean car upholstery . Now we will talk about the different types of rugs and how to clean them.

Types of rugs

There are many types of rugs, and we must take this into account before cleaning. Depending on the material with which it is made, we will have to use some methods and products or others.

Handicraft professionals often use natural raw materials such as wool, silk, linen, cotton, esparto, jute or sisal. As they are made by hand, they are also dyed with natural pigments, a very important fact to take into account for their cleaning and conservation.



Of wool, silk and combined : they are made by hand and originate from eastern countries such as Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan or Turkey .

Wool and cotton rugs : they come from North African countries, such as Morocco, Tunisia or Algeria and are also made in an artisan way. Like the previous ones, its value will depend on the number of knots they contain on the reverse .

From vegetable fibers :
here we can distinguish between various kinds of materials: Jute, coconut fiber, sisal, mats and Sea Grass. The problem with these rugs is that, being made of vegetable fibers, they can deteriorate with humidity, except for Sea Grass as they are waterproof.

Animal skin rugs : they are made with the skin of cows, sheep or other animals. They are very resistant to friction but very delicate against humidity and the intrusion of some insects.

Combination rugs : they often combine natural and synthetic materials, which can make the cleaning process even more difficult.

Synthetics : they are much cheaper because they are made with low-cost machines and materials. However, they are very resistant and we can find them woven with different components : acrylic, nylon, polypropylene or polyester rugs. With this last material the long pile carpet is usually made.


How to clean carpets

  • Depending on the material with which our carpet is made, we will have to do the cleaning in one way or another.
  • The best method that exists to keep any type of carpet in perfect condition is to use a high-powered vacuum cleaner and do it regularly. This is essential for long pile carpet.
  • To clean jute or latex rugs you should know that they are not washable and can deteriorate with the use of water. Do not wet or submerge them, except to remove difficult and specific stains. Lastly, prevent water from penetrating the base.
  • In vegetable fiber rugs , in addition to vacuuming at least once a week, you can wipe with a damp cloth with water and mild soap. Make sure it is well drained and then rinse with just water using the same procedure.
  • Pure wool and cotton rugs can be washed with mild soap, cold water and salt to avoid color mixing. However, if it is large, we recommend that you take it to a dry cleaner to ensure that it is left in perfect condition.
  • Also important is the fact that wool rugs must be collected in summer so that insects such as moths cannot spoil them.


Carpet Cleaning Techniques


  • For cleaning heavily soiled carpets, especially long-pile carpets, vacuum cleaners and brush brushes are often the best options. However, bicarbonate is ideal for cleaning all types of carpets without damaging the fabrics, as well as being very effective. You just have to mix it with a little salt, spread the powder over the surface to be treated, leave it to act for an hour and remove the remains with a vacuum cleaner. The bicarbonate frees the fabric of dust and bacteria and improves its smell.
  • The steam cleaner is a great alternative for cleaning all types of carpets. It removes dust and impurities without damaging fabrics, and if you spread a little baking soda with salt on the carpet, you will optimize steam cleaning. Run the steamer twice over the same area and let it dry completely.
  • Hot water with vinegar is also very effective in removing stains from your carpets. Spray the fabric with this preparation and scrub the moistened surface with a bristle brush . You will see how even the most difficult stains will be removed without problems.
  • For oil or grease stains, cornstarch or corn starch is very effective. Sprinkle a little on the stain and let it sit for about 30 minutes . Then, vacuum and brush the treated area with a dry brush.
  • If you need to remove wine stains or other strong liquids, mix one tablespoon of dishwasher with a cup of hydrogen peroxide and spread the mixture over the stain. Leave on for half an hour and use a damp bristle brush to rub gently. Then dry the mixture with a cloth.

We hope we have helped you with the cleaning of your carpet, whether of animal origin, synthetic or long pile carpet. There will be no stain that resists these tricks.

Why You Should Vacuum Your Carpet


For many people, the concepts carpet and vacuum cleaner are polar opposites that should not be touched. There are many legends, hoaxes and half-documented stories about why it should not be used. But the vacuum cleaner is a tool that can extend the life of our carpet by keeping it clean in the process, if we use it well.

Of course, the questions arise of how often a carpet must be vacuumed and how it should be done to avoid damaging its fabrics. If you want to keep your carpet for many years, you are in the right place. We tell you when and how to vacuum to leave it like the first day for longer.

How often do I have to vacuum the carpet?

The frequency with which a carpet is cleaned varies depending on the type of fabric and the occupation of the home . Although it is usually recommended to clean a carpet every two weeks, it will be advisable to do it before if small children live in the house who play on it or if we have a pet.

We will also have to increase the frequency if we have a rug under the table where we eat, if it is in a damp place, or if it is woven with natural fibers. Factors all of them that help to a certain extent to fix the dirt.

Since a general cleaning is usually done throughout the weekend, we can include the task of a couple of minutes that will take us to vacuum the carpet taking into account a couple of tips to avoid damaging it.

Why vacuum versus shaking?

The vacuum cleaner is not an infallible method of cleaning, but a preventive treatment to prevent dust, suspended particles and organic debris from seeping into the fabrics, sticking to them, and causing damage or a bad odor (such as that generated the mold or fungi to growing up ).

Passing the vacuum cleaner we are removing the first layers of dirt on the carpet, but not those that are already inside, and that require shaking it or going through a specialized cleaning service.

Therefore, the less a carpet is vacuumed, the more times it will have to be shaken to remove the dirt embedded inside, with the deterioration that it supposes . In addition, more trips will have to be made to the dye for cleaning , adding a cost that we could have easily saved.

How to use the vacuum cleaner without damaging the carpet?

However, the vacuum cleaner is not without danger for the fibers of our carpet, and it will be necessary to pass it carefully if we do not want to damage it. We give you some tips to use it:

Leave the carpet for the end of the cleaning

To begin with, we should not vacuum before cleaning the dust on the furniture . Although it seems that it is not related, when cleaning the furniture we are dispersing a thin layer of dirt on the floor (and therefore on the carpet) that we would then have to remove again if we do not want to leave it dirty until we vacuum again the next time.


Similarly, it is recommended to vacuum the house before going over the carpet , saving it for last. Especially if the vacuum is not water, the filter often acts as a blower for hot and dirty air, something for which normal filter vacuums have been criticized.

Choose a low-suction vacuum

As we have said, the idea after vacuuming is not to remove all the interior dirt, but to remove the first layers (the most recent). If we use all the power of the machine we could damage the fabrics, so the ideal thing would be to buy a vacuum cleaner with a power regulator , reducing it when passing especially for not very rigid carpets that can fray.

Carpet care tips

As these types of vacuum cleaners are quite expensive, the alternative is to acquire an independent head, seeking to fulfill two points that help soften the force of the air on the fabric :

  • That the mouth of the vacuum cleaner has a lot of surface.
  • That this is adjustable in height, being able to move it away from the carpet.
  • In this way we will avoid sucking with great force.

Technique is important when vacuuming

Just like when and what to vacuum with, you have to pay attention to how. The ideal is not to pass twice in a row and in the same direction through the same point , so as not to force the fabrics or bend or stretch them excessively.

Vacuuming in a vee, diagonal, or changing the direction of pass helps the fibers to withstand the stresses and will clean the carpet without reducing its useful life.

It is important to vacuum with the carpet horizontally on the floor , and not with it hanging (for example from a clothesline). In this way we will avoid forcing the fabrics more than necessary, in addition to being able to extract as much dirt as possible, since the dirt will move vertically or diagonally inside the fabric, sometimes to get trapped.

In addition to all the previous points, it is always recommended to vacuum dry if we do not want the fabrics to be caked or even to trap dust.

And, of course, if we don't have time or desire, we will always have to go to the dye ...

Note: Hamid rugs is not responsible for any defects that may be caused by the application of these cleaning and care tips, as the products and tools mentioned are advisable, but depending on the way they are applied they could damage the rugs. This is because the materials of each rug are unique and their dyes and composition will react in different ways. We always recommend professional carpet restoration and cleaning.

How to vacuum a carpet


Vacuuming may not be fun, but it is an important chore to keep clean and has many health benefits. Vacuuming dust, dirt, and other particles prevents people with allergies or asthma from suffering from discomfort. Vacuuming also increases the life of carpets and rugs, which can help you save time and money in the long run when you don't have to replace them.

Method 1 Vacuuming a woven rug


1
Find the direction of the grain of the carpet. Woven rugs can have a lot, little or no fiber. This is the density of the vertical fibers that protrude from the carpet. The direction in which the fibers naturally lie is called the fiber direction. [1] To determine it, run your hand along the rug. If you do it against the grain, you will feel the resistance.
You should always vacuum or brush woven rugs in the direction of the grain. Otherwise, softer yarns may break. [2]

2
Vacuum in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the grain. If you vacuum in the direction of the grain, the fibers will cover and protect the dirt you want to remove. Vacuuming against the direction of the grain will cause unnecessary wear on the carpet and can cause fiber loss and damage. [3]

3
Don't vacuum the fringes. When vacuuming the edges, use your hand or foot to pin the fringe down. Vacuuming them could damage the vacuum and the carpet. [4] Suction roller vacuums are better for this task, as the fringes will not get stuck inside the vacuum.




Method 2 Vacuuming tufted rugs


1
Check the underside for possible flaking or peeling. Tufted rugs are held together by a layer of latex glue that secures the fringes and prevents them from falling off. If the carpet is very old, this layer of glue could show signs of cracking and crumbling, which means that the fringes will no longer be secured. If you see patches on the underside of the carpet where there is no glue, be very careful when cleaning that part. Exerting a lot of pressure will cause the fibers to come off and create new patches. [5]

2
Find the direction of the grain. All tufted rugs have a fiber; it is the density of the protruding vertical fibers. They also have a grain direction, which is the direction the fibers naturally lie. [6] To determine the direction of the grain, run your hand over the carpet. It will appear darker and you will feel resistance when you brush against the grain.
If the carpet is rectangular, the grain direction will go the length.
Regular traffic on the carpet can change the direction of the grain in certain places. Rotate rugs on a regular basis so the grain stays even throughout the rug.

3
Vacuum periodically in the direction of the grain. If you vacuum in the direction of the grain, the fibers will cover and protect the dirt you want to remove. Vacuuming against the direction of the grain will cause unnecessary wear to the carpet and could accidentally remove the fringes. [7]
For best results, use a bagless vacuum and stir bar, or a similar vacuum that only uses suction.




Method 3 Vacuuming a flat-weave rug


1
Vacuum frequently. Flat-weave rugs are fiber-free and made of durable materials. Due to their fine, yet tough nature, they will appear dirtier more often than other rugs, as there will be less room for dirt and dust to hide. While excessive vacuuming can often cause wear and tear on the carpet, durable materials can hold up quite a bit before this occurs.

2
Be careful with the fringes. If vacuumed upwards, the fringes can get caught in the stir bar and damage both the vacuum and the carpet. [8] For this reason, temporarily turn off the agitator bar when vacuuming the edges or use a bagless vacuum that uses only suction. If you have access to a vacuum with stir bars, hold the fringes down with your hand while vacuuming.

3
Vacuum both sides. Flat-weave rugs are reversible, and both sides are susceptible to soiling. Vacuuming both sides will remove dirt that can wear down the carpet early. [9] Turn the carpet over occasionally to distribute the wear evenly on both sides. This will increase its life and reduce wear.




Method 4 Vacuuming a thick carpet


1
Flip the rug over and vacuum the underside. By doing this first, you will be able to loosen dirt and dust deep in the carpet. [10] For this step, you will need a vacuum with a stir bar. Stand on the rug and use your feet to prevent the edges from lifting up when you vacuum.
Alternatively, you and a friend can turn the thick rug over and shake it vigorously to loosen dirt and dust. However, thick rugs are very heavy, so it will be difficult to do it without help.

2
Vacuum the floor under the carpet. Roll up the rug and set it aside for a moment. On the floor, there will be dirt and dust that you have previously dislodged from the carpet. Vacuum this part before putting the carpet in place, but this time, face up. [eleven]

3
Vacuum the top with a light suction. Unlike the bottom, stir bar vacuums are not recommended for use on the top, as long fibers will wrap around them and damage the vacuum. Using a vacuum cleaner with mild suction can also cause damage by pulling the fringes from the carpet. Instead, use a small vacuum with low suction or use the crevice tool to gently clean the top.


Tips
Dust your carpets frequently. The best way to remove dust from a carpet is to prevent it from accumulating in the first place. [12]
Regardless of the type of carpet you have, always use a non-slip base! In addition to increasing the life of the carpet, it prevents it from sliding or scratching the surface below. [13]
Vacuuming a carpet is very effective in controlling the hair of cats and dogs in the house.

Warnings
Don't vacuum fur, sheepskin, or fur rugs. These rugs require special attention to care for the coat. [14]

How to vacuum the carpet or carpet and leave it 100% clean


Carpets are present in most homes and it has surely happened to you that after vacuuming it, you feel that it was not as clean as you expected.

Today I will give you some very useful tips and techniques to vacuum your carpet and make it impeccable.

How to vacuum the carpet step by step

If you have pets in addition to carpets , you will be interested in this guide on vacuum cleaners that work very well with the hair of your animals.

# 1 Clear the carpet
The first thing you should do is clear the carpet of all objects that could bother you cleaning, such as tables and chairs.

# 2 Place the appropriate mouthpiece
If your vacuum includes a special carpet brush, you should place it before you start.

If you have a cordless vacuum cleaner, much better, since it will allow you to have greater freedom of movement.

# 3 Aim for medium power
Turn on the vacuum and put it on medium power .

A very high power would absorb the pile of the carpet, and a low one does not have the necessary force to remove the dirt from it.

# 4 Follow the direction of the strands
Vacuum in the direction of the strands of the carpet, in slow movements , and then go perpendicular .

In this way, you will absorb as much dust and dirt as possible.

# 5 Use the nozzle for the corners
If the carpet or carpet reaches the wall, use the nozzle to vacuum in the corners

This is one of the places where dirt accumulates the most because we do not usually clean there. 

How often should I vacuum?

Carpet should be cleaned every day if it is in a high traffic area of ​​the home.

But if you are in a space that is not used much then you can do a weekly cleaning .

How to remove the bad smell from the carpet?

If the carpet is very dirty and has a bad smell, you can dry clean it with baking soda .

Just add it all over the carpet, leave it on overnight, and vacuum the carpet as usual.

The bad smell will disappear and it will look much cleaner. 

How to remove stains from the carpet?

Now, if you want to remove a specific stain, make a mixture of water, white vinegar and liquid soap.

Apply it to the carpet with a spray bottle, and rub it with a cloth or soft bristle brush, then vacuum it.

I do not recommend using a very strong brush as it can loosen the fibers of the carpet.

How to eliminate dust after carrying out works in our home


To clean after a work or renovation in your home it is necessary to be cautious, you must take into account that the objects of your home are well protected with some fabric or plastic against any damage and delimit the areas of the work to facilitate the subsequent work of cleaning. It is also important to open windows and doors, in order to provide the home with adequate ventilation.

After the reform you must protect yourself well , we recommend that you wear clothes that can get stained, a protective mask to prevent dust from going into our lungs and glasses to protect your eyes. The dust produced by a work is nothing like common dust, it is thicker because it comes from the perforation of the materials. This dust can wreak havoc on the respiratory system leading to respiratory illnesses.

Remove dust and plaster from the work area

To begin, the essential thing is to make sure that we have all the materials and tools at hand to carry out a thorough cleaning of our house or the space where the work has been carried out. The most effective option for cleaning is the vacuum cleaner, it will be the first thing to use when collecting and removing the accumulated dust on the floor . Most likely, as it is a thick powder, you will have to empty the bag more than once, do not worry since once you finish with all the powder it will be much easier for you to go for everything else.

The next thing is to clean the ceiling and the walls with the help of a ladder, a bucket and a damp sponge or cloth, this way you will remove the smallest remains of dust and dirt. You can repeat this operation as many times as necessary, as long as the sponge or cloth is well wrung out and you make quick passes so as not to leave a mark on the walls and ceiling.

Removes dirt from furniture and corners of the home

For cleaning specific furniture that you have not been able to protect during the course of the work, the ideal is to use a cloth and a soapy cleaner to get rid of dust and dirt that may have remained, remember to wash the cloth from time to time so as not to re-soiling the furniture with the dust collected on it and that can scratch the surface of the furniture.

To remove the dirt embedded in the furniture and located in a place that is difficult to access for vacuuming, you can use a small brush or, failing that, an old toothbrush. By wetting the brush in a little water you will be able to clean all those corners, once it has passed, remove the dirt with the help of a damp cloth until it is shiny. If this procedure has not produced the desired effect, you can always contact express painting professionals to restore your furniture and return it to good condition in a short time and without causing you any further discomfort.

Cleans cement from embedded soil

In cases where we have a reform or work involved, there are always some traces of it in the form of stains or traces of cement. The best way to eliminate them is to get a descaling product, which allows to permanently eliminate the remains of cement that may have fallen on the floor or splashed the wall. Before starting to clean, remember to dilute the product in water and read the instructions on the container correctly, then moisten the floor in the place where the stains are found with the help of a cloth or cloth. Next, rub the mixture over the rest of the cement, wait a few minutes before rubbing again and repeat the action until the stain completely disappears. Remember that the product takes a few minutes before taking effect, so give it some time.

Once the entire work area is finished, it is possible that throughout the hours you will continue to find traces of dust, the important thing is to be constant and keep a daily cleaning and maintenance rhythm , so that little by little you eliminate every last one. rest of dirt. Do not forget above all about protection and good ventilation in your home.

Remove dust from the construction site


Before starting, the first thing we must do is try to make the dust that has accumulated during the work disappear . Your first impulse will be to take a broom and start sweeping everything, but with this you will only be able to move the particles from place.

Open the window of the compartment where you are going to start cleaning and with the door closed, place a fan pointing outwards.

For the first cleaning itself, it is advisable to use a vacuum cleaner , but you can do it using the traditional brush method, although it will take longer and the effectiveness will be lower. Once you have finished, leave the fan on for at least an hour and the window open, with this you will get the particles that float in the air out into the street .

Repeat this process in each of the rooms in the house. It is recommended that you start with the innermost cabin and work your way towards the exterior rooms from the inside out. In this way you will avoid accumulated dust.

Ceilings and walls

Once we have the house clean of dust and particles, the next step is to remove the dirt that has accumulated on ceilings and walls . In order to do so, I recommend that you follow these steps:


Fill a bucket with water and dip a mop in it until it is completely wet. Before starting, check that it is in a good hurry and does not leak. It is very important, therefore, squeeze it until you appreciate that it is completely drained.

When you have the mop ready and with the right humidity, place it in the upper corner of each wall and proceed to scrub it from corner to corner in the case of ceilings and from corner to corner and from top to bottom when we clean the walls . When you finish each area, you will have to rinse the mop and re-wet it to continue cleaning other areas until both the ceilings and the walls are clean.

The floors after the construction

It is very likely that on the floor of the house you can find traces of mud, cement, plaster . In order to remove those stains that may be resistant to conventional detergents, there are some more specific chemical products on the market for this type of more complex dirt. Antiscale , cement removers , or descalers are usually ideal products for this job.

Before starting, the first thing we must do is try to make the dust that has accumulated during the work disappear. Your first impulse will be to take a broom and start sweeping everything, but with this you will only be able to move the particles around.

If the case that "complicates your life" is how to clean stoneware or porcelain floor after the work, there may be other doubts that usually arise. First you must identify the type of floor and then apply the specific cleaner for stains.

In any case, the ideal solution is the classic vacuum cleaner in the case of smooth floors and the sweeping machine if the surface is rough. The latter is much more efficient and also more expensive.

Cleaning the rest of your home

Once you have managed to remove the dirt from the walls and the floor, the next objective is to clean the rest of the components of your home . Although they should have been covered and insulated during the job, it is very likely that they have traces of dust and plaster from some spatter. The ideal way to remove this dirt is to fill a bucket with water and detergent and use a very damp cloth to remove the remains of dust and dirt. It is important that you use a  degreasing detergent that will guarantee proper cleaning.


When you have the cloth with water and detergent, remove the excess water, but leave it very wet so that it is less aggressive and does not cause scratches and scratches. When you see dirt on the cloth, put it back into the bucket and start over. 

In the case of stainless steel windows, use specific products for this, such as specific spray cleaners or a stripper stainless steel cleaner , in case there is any residual welding.

Once you have managed to remove the dirt from the walls and the floor, the next objective is to clean the rest of the components of your home. Although they should have been covered and insulated during the job, it is very likely that they have traces of dust and plaster from a splash.

Another of the enemies that you can find in cleaning your home are paint or varnish stains , I recommend patience and the use of a good universal stripper that will facilitate the removal of those uncomfortable stains.

Popular and inexpensive remedies to clean the remains of work.

There are some homemade solutions that can be efficient and simple in some cases. They do not reach the level of effectiveness of professional products, but they can be a cheaper option. Let's see the most used.

For lime or plaster stains on the windows you can use acid or cement remover. In the case of aluminum window frames or kitchens, I recommend a mixture of water, soap and ammonia. If it is one of those stubborn stains on floors and walls, carbonated drinks or even hydrogen peroxide have a very efficient effect.


For embedded stains, the classic "vaporetta" from your ironing center is usually very effective in cleaning them, the water vapor penetrates and in many cases it is the ideal solution for those stubborn stains.

In the event that it is paint or varnish, there is a very effective solution: nail polishes that contain acetone. To do this, spread this product on the stain and very carefully and scrape it with a spatula until it disappears.

You have almost finished the end of work cleaning.

Once you have finished with dust, ceilings, floors, walls, windows and doors and have your house “apparently” clean, I recommend that you go back to vacuuming as a review of the previous work . Once this process is finished, you will have your home in perfect condition to start the move and thus enjoy a new place to live.
