For such a well-used part of many homes, furniture is often way down on the cleaning to-do list. At Canadian Carpet Cleaners, which is based in Toronto and the GTA in Ontario, we can help you remove this pesky task from your to-do list. Here are some reasons why you might consider hiring someone to take care of this for you:
1. It Disinfects
Furniture, such as couches, lounges and mattresses, are some of the most used areas in a home. Because these pieces are put to good use, they can become a breeding ground for dust, bacteria and even mildew. It’s important to use a proper upholstery cleaner to get rid of these particles; especially, since they may contain allergens, which can be harmful to your family. Cleaning companies can safely remove these allergens, to ensure you maintain a healthier home environment. This is also where a maintenance package provided through cleaning companies like our Toronto/GTA-based one comes in handy. The average person sheds around 1,000,000 skin cells and 50 to 100 hairs a day. Meaning if your home is host to a big family, these particles will add up quickly and your furniture will need to be cleaned more often.
2. It Deodorizes
If you have pets using an upholstery cleaner is a must. Pet hair and urine can quickly cause furniture to look and smell poorly. Although these odours are often difficult to get rid of, cleaning companies are experts in reviving odourous furniture back to new.
3. It Maintains Aesthetics
You want to make sure your furniture accentuates your home’s style, not hampers it. This is another area where an upholstery cleaner will be your saving grace. Often times furniture will eventually get browned, a likely result of stains or water damage. Although regular soap and water will not do the trick to get rid of browning, good cleaning companies know the right mixture of chemicals to get rid of it. Cleaning companies will also have the tools necessary to clean special or delicate fabrics. Clean, unstained furniture will help enhance your home and create an inviting space – and you won’t be embarrassed the next time unexpected guests drop by.
Using an upholstery cleaner is very important in keeping a clean and healthy home environment; however, because a steam or upholstery cleaner can be expensive to buy and confusing to use, hiring cleaning companies to regularly maintain your furniture will save you time and closet space. Think of it this way, furniture is often a big expense and investment for your home. In the long run, regular use of an upholstery cleaner will ensure your investments see a longer-lasting life.
