I am often asked how often we recommend a person have their carpets cleaned. Now I would like to send my trained technicians to your home or business every week so I could retire sooner, but I know that is not reasonable or affordable! So we put together a little information so you can make the best decision based on your specific situation. Because the real answer to that question is that it depends. It depends on how many people you have in your home or if you own pets. For commercial customers it may depend on the type of business you operate. This is a good general guideline for Boise Idaho carpet cleaning, but results may differ slightly based on other factors such as climate or seasons.
For most homes the easiest recommendation is four times per year, or once a quarter. This is my suggested schedule that may help you remember when it is time to call a professional carpet cleaner:
- Quarter 1: Get the carpets cleaned as part of your Spring Cleaning punch list. Time to get all those winter germs out and freshen up the house for the new season! Schedule in March
- Quarter 2: School is out and summer is here! Time to clean the carpets so the kids have a clean place for all those summertime sleep-overs. Schedule in June.
- Quarter 3: Halleluiah, the kids are going back to school and the house is yours again! Those carpets deserve a good cleaning and you deserve a clean house. Schedule in September.
- Quarter 4: Clean those carpets in preparation for the holiday season. There is nothing like fresh clean carpets to impress that mother-in-law! Schedule in late November or December.
