Fabulous cleaning news for residents and businesses in Nanaimo and surrounding areas on beautiful Vancouver Island!

When it comes time to have your carpets cleaned by a professional, there are reputable carpet cleaners available to service your needs and work within your budget to restore your carpets so they are clean and beautiful again.

Not only does your carpet provide beauty and atmosphere to your rooms,  it acts as a filter to provide you with important health benefits. Scientists say that our eyes can only see 10% of airborne dust particles, pollen, etc. In a room with hard floors only, dust particles in the air will land on the floor but are easily stirred up to become airborne again because there is nothing on the floor to keep them there.  Carpet acts as an effective room filter to hold on to such particles and keep them from floating back into the air where we can inhale them.  Just like the filter on your furnace needs regular maintenance, so does your carpet in order to help maintain healthy indoor air quality. Regular vacuuming, to remove dry soil particles is an important part of maintaining the filtering capability of your carpet. There are also easy do-it-yourself ways to help keep your carpet clean as featured in our handy 36 page Free Carpet Guide, Carpet And Your Home.

In addition,  experts recommend that your carpet be professionally deep cleaned once each year on average because over time dust and dirt works its way down into the fibre where vacuuming alone can’t extract it.  Deep cleaning will give your carpet new life and significantly contribute to extending its life, thereby protecting your carpet investment.  Regular vacuuming, spot removal and annual professional deep cleaning will avoid the expense and headaches of having to replace your carpet and will enable your carpet to continue doing its job of filtering your indoor air for many years to come.
