Berber Carpet Cleaning Done the Right Way
In order for berber carpet cleaning to be done the right way you have to know what berber carpet is, and what the proper cleaning methods are. There is more than one type of berber carpet and each type needs a different cleaning process.
In the past, there were many types of carpets manufactured, all of which tried to provide an attractive appearance as well as great comfort for the home. These same manufacturers tried to make a carpet looking good for a long time. At times, this meant manufacturing carpets that are thick and elegant looking. These types of carpet are very comfortable and always looked great but they quickly became flattened and dirty.
During the seventies, the manufacturers of carpet quite frequently would make carpets that were very hardwearing and able to stop a lot of wear and tear, resist the sand and grit, which is pounded into the carpets. These carpets were made with synthetic materials and quite often, these materials lacked comfort.
These days one of the trendiest style of carpet for the house is berber carpet. This style of carpet comes from many distinctive materials, which commonly include nylon, wool and olefin. The name berber does not mean the type of material used, but instead the actual weave of the carpet. In spite of the type of material used, berber carpet is small loops tightly packed together which create either a pattern or a uniform color.
As a result of berber carpeting having such tight weaves, it is able to stop the dirt and stains from causing damage much better than most carpets. It is important to remove the stains and dirt quickly because the tight weave will make the stains very hard to get out once they penetrate the carpet. Cleaning a berber carpet often needs fast action in the event of spills from either a powder or a liquid.
One method of cleaning berber carpets thoroughly is to use a steam cleaner with a cleaning chemical. This is very effective and gets great results in cleaning the carpet. However, because of the tightly woven fabric the moisture is harder to remove. This means that the carpets will take longer to dry than other types of carpet. If you use this method to clean your carpet you must make sure that you allow plenty of drying time, and choose a warm dry day to do the cleaning.
The best way to keep the carpet looking good is to prevent any surface dirt, dust or grime from penetrating the weave. You can accomplish this by vacuuming regularly at least three times a week. Take your shoes off before you walk on the carpet and you will help to stop the dirt from getting in the carpet and causing any damage.
Nylon berber carpets are very popular and cheaper than their wool counterparts are. Nylon is also able to resist stains such as mold or mildew much easier than a wool carpet. To clean a nylon carpet it is best to use either dry foam or a low moisture cleaning method. This will give you a great cleaning result and at the same time reduce the time that it takes for your carpets to dry.
Wool berber carpets are more expensive but they have many natural qualities that can resist wear and tear as well as stains more effectively than synthetic materials. Wool is absorbent and any cleaning method will need very little moisture. As long as a low moisture method of cleaning is used, a wool berber carpet will look as good as new.
Possibly the easiest type of berber carpet to clean is made of olefin, which is a synthetic material that is very resistant to stains. Olefin carpets are almost entirely stain proof except for those stains, which are oil based.
Whichever type of carpet you have remember never to scrub a stain; this will make the stain go deeper into the carpet and could permanently damage the carpet. Use an absorbent cloth to absorb the stain, and use water to dilute the stain. Your best chance to remove a stain is to work on it immediately. Following these tips will help to keep your berber carpets looking great for many years.
