We all know the importance of cleaning our carpets and sometimes, we even spend a few hundreds of pounds to have our carpets cleaned professionally. It is therefore a little disappointing when we come home to find apple juice stains and spit ups on the expensive carpets that you spent so much to have cleaned – it will almost obviously happen if you have little children or pets in the house.

How do I get started, which is the best method, which is the best carpet cleaning machine and can I clean my carpets with bleach. These are the common concerns nowadays. All the questions above are crucial. We will therefore answer all... not now though, as we need to address the most serious of them all – the use of bleaches for cleaning carpets. Without being biased, let us look at critical aspects. It is no problem to use bleach if your carpet is white, right? Wrong! What most people do not understand is that the sparkling white colour of their carpets is not the carpet's original colour. It was only dyed with an attractive white colour, more or less the same way it would have been dyed with a beautiful pink colour. So when you use bleach to clean your white carpet, the white dye that gave it that attractive look disappears and instead of a shinny carpet after cleaning, you get a dull one.

If a strong coloured liquid or mud does get trodden into the carpet then you can use normal household bleach to remove it without damaging the carpet in any way. Understand that bleach does not easily remove molds from the carpet. If the carpet is moldy, use a mold cleaning product first to get rid of the nasty molds sticking to the carpet fibers. If there are any caked substances sticking to the carpet, use a knife to loosen them up and clean them afterward. Before proceeding with the application of bleach, use a vacuum cleaner to suck up all the dirt and debris still clinging to the carpet.To remove the bleach odor from the carpet as well as any dirt left, flush the carpet with water thoroughly. Apply carpet shampoo afterward. Use a brush if necessary to remove stubborn dirt still clinging to the fibers of the upholstery. Rinse the shampooed upholstery again with water before allowing it to dry. To speed up the process, use a vacuum cleaner.

If you do have a problem stain then you will need to try bleach or an everyday carpet cleaning product that suits your needs. Be guided by professional Auckland Carpet Cleaning for best reliable assistance
