Choosing and Proper Caring of Carpets

 

The range of carpets is almost endless. When buying a carpet, think about three things beforehand:

 

• What do I need the carpet for - as a runner in the hallway or as a gem in the living room?
• What color should it be?
• How expensive can it be? 

Anyone who buys a carpet that pleases and corresponds to the previously set price has done everything right when purchasing a carpet from carpet shops Redlands. The biggest mistake is to overestimate yourself and think you can get a bargain purchase. That can lead to nasty surprises. 

The Quality of An Oriental Carpet 

There are various criteria for determining valuable carpets. The following features are decisive for the quality of carpets when buying at carpet shops Redlands:

 

• the provenance in which the carpet was made;
• country of origin;
• age;
• the size;
• the quality of the material such as wool, silk, or goat hair;
• and the number and regularity of the nodes. 

The knot density is of great importance both in the country of manufacture and in the quality assessment. The type of warp thread tension, the thread thickness, and the weft thread guide can be used to determine precisely what a number of knots a carpet will later have per square decimeter. 

The knot density also depends to a decisive extent on the strength of the threads used. A carpet made of thick yarn threads allows only a tiny number of coarser knots.  

Proper Care & Cleaning of Carpets 

Whether soft on foot, with a surface structure made of wool and cotton, or made of natural fibers such as jute - carpets can amazingly change the look of a room and the feeling of well-being when walking. To feel this comfort for a long time, you only need a little carpet care, which does not have to be a burden. 

What should you consider when caring for carpets you bought at carpet shops in Redlands? 

Easy daily cleaning and care 

For the daily cleaning of carpets acquired in carpet shops Redlands, rely on a vacuum cleaner with an electric brush roller. A new vacuum cleaner is unnecessary for this; there are brush attachments for almost all models in electrical shops. In entrance areas, corridors, or similarly highly frequented rooms, carpets often no longer look nice. Unique carpet cleaning products help here, freshening up the colors and reviving the fibers.
