Frequently Asked Questions | 732-250-0974 | East Brunswick, NJ Carpet Cleaning PROS

What is the best type of carpet or rug to buy?

This is a tricky question as everything is relative to price. The important thing is to inquire about the quality of the pile and fibers that make up the carpet. Various fibers have different qualities. Our experience is that natural fibers such as wool and other animal hair are more durable and look better for a longer period. However, these are usually very much more expensive than synthetic fibers. This does not mean that synthetic carpets won’t satisfy you. They will, but nature is always the best.

What carpet maintenance is required of the general householder?

Regular vacuuming is highly recommended. Make sure to vacuum your carpets, upholstered furniture and drapes at least once a week in order to keep abrasive dust particles down to a minimum. However, remember to ensure maximum removal of all harmful dust, mites and allergens, regular professional cleaning is essential.

How can I remove stains and blotches from my very expensive oriental rug and carpets?

Many stubborn stains can be removed by wetting out the area and blotting up the stain. Care should be taken not to let the stain run onto a larger area. Always blot the wetted area with an absorbent paper towel or clean white cloth. Do not rub or brush as this can cause irreversible color running and pile damage as well as set the stain. Some stains cannot be removed using normal household cleansers. Do not treat stubborn stains with more vigorous mechanical action or potentially dangerous chemicals. Consult Carpet Cleaning East Brunswick, NJ. We know what to do.
