A Warilla homeowner thought the red stain on her carpet was impossible to clean
The homeowner revealed that the bedroom carpet had a fist-sized reddish brown stain from spilt tanning lotion.
The customer didn’t think we would be able to remove the stain from the carpet because it had been there for a while. She was willing to pay extra if it disappeared and we made sure she got her money’s worth!
Carpet stains can come in a rainbow of colours!
Most coloured stains won’t disappear after a typical carpet clean, especially if they were not spot cleaned when they happened.
Top tips to deal with coloured carpet stains:
- Act quickly – clean the spot as soon as it happens.
- Don’t rub the stains. Instead, gently blot them with a clean cloth, sponge or paper towel.
- Vacuum your carpets regularly, then if you do spill something, there is less chance that it will come into contact with loose dirt, making it even harder to remove.
- When a stain seems too tough for regular cleaning, call professional carpet cleaners. Sometimes your own efforts to clean stains from your carpets make things worse.
