When it comes to certain investments in your home, you may feel like you know when you need to call in a professional to help you with maintenance and cleaning and when you’re able to tackle this task on your own. However, you may be less than certain about when professional carpet cleaning is needed.
If you have a regular vacuuming routine, you may assume your carpets are being cared for adequately without professional help. However, the truth is there are a number of situations in which calling on professional carpet cleaners, such as our team at Chem-Dry®, is a must.
5 Signs It’s Time for Professional Carpet Cleaning We’ve gathered a list of signs that it’s time to request professional carpet cleaning and situations in which working with a professional technician can be a huge help. Take a look at the list below as you determine whether getting in touch with your local Chem-Dry technician is the right next step for you.
Your pet has had an accident indoors. If your furry friend has had an accident on your carpets, reaching out for professional carpet cleaning can make your home feel fresh again.

Your home smells musty or weird smell. You may not realize it, but your carpets act as a huge air filter in your home. They trap tiny particles of dust, dander, pollen, and dirt, clinging to them and preventing them from moving around on air currents in your home. However, while your carpets are superheroes, they’re not invincible. They can only hold onto so much dust without professional cleaning. If you’ve noticed that your home has a dusty, musty, or funky odor, having your carpets deep cleaned can make a huge difference and enable them to continue promoting healthy indoor air quality by improving their filtering capabilities.
You don't have a no-shoes policy in your home. If you often have family members or guests enter your home without taking their shoes off, your carpets may be much dirtier than you realize. All of the dirt and grime that is tracked in from the outdoors can accumulate in your carpets over time and become compacted within its delicate fibers.
The friction of dirt rubbing against these fibers causes premature breakdown and ugly traffic patterns. Of course, that’s not the only concern to consider. To maintain a healthy home environment, it’s also important to remove soil from your carpets through professional cleaning on a regular basis.
Your last professional carpet cleaning was more than a year ago. Can you remember the last time you had professionals come by to clean your carpets? If your last appointment was more than a year ago, it’s definitely time to get in touch with your local Chem-Dry technician.
We recommend having carpets professionally cleaned at least once a year. However, if you have kids or pets at home, you should schedule carpet cleaning every six months. Sticking to a regular deep carpet cleaning schedule can help keep your investment in great condition and extend the lifespan of carpets, saving you from the hassle and cost of having to replace them prematurely.
