Accidents Happen

Accidents around the home will happen and most can be resolved, however some will require the help of a professional. Read our top tips for dealing with accidents.

Don't use too much water

Never rub or scrub

Don't use inappropriate detergents such as washing-up liquid

Don't mix chemicals

When using cleaning solutions, don't apply directly to the carpet or fabric

Don't panic

Scrape or blot any excess soil prior to treatment

Keep the fabric as dry as possible

Always test any solution/detergent on an inconspicuous area

Follow the recommended ratios & instructions exactly

To avoid spreading, always work from the outside of the stain inward

Persevere, some cleaning procedures need to be repeated several times to achieve the desired result

One of the biggest issues when dealing with accidents is that of reappearing spots or stains. These spots reappear in the carpet fibres due to the residue wicking up from the backing; it could be residues of spot cleaning agents and soil attracting residues. It is common that after D-I-Y attempts to clean up after accidents, that spots keep coming back after being cleaned.

If accidents happen and you're ever in doubt, always contact Trusted Local Cleaners
