Carpet Care Tips Cumberland County

How to clean up a spill (including fresh urine spots), without damaging your carpet

STEP 1: Cover spill with WHITE napkin or paper towels. DO NOT use colored paper! It might transfer onto the carpet. Be sure to use a THICK stack to absorb as much of the spot as possible.

STEP 2: Blot by stepping on stack of towels.

REPEAT THIS PROCESS UNTIL NO TRANSFER TAKES PLACE. DO NOT RUB!!!

STEP 3: Apply Spotting Agent. Warning: Do not use spot removers that you get at the grocery store! They leave a sticky residue behind and may discolor your carpet. Get a Spot Out Pro Spotter FREE from Carpet Majik. Ask us how.

Pet Spots: Only Use Pet Spotter on pet spots. Urine turns “alkaline” from being exposed to oxygen. Pet Spotter is designed to neutralize urine salts. *GET YOUR CARPET CLEANED AS SOON AFTER A PET SPOT AS POSSIBLE! Even when you do a great job cleaning the spot, urine salts can still be left behind which will discolor your textile and collect odor causing bacteria. Warning: Do NOT use over the counter spotters for urine. They are not designed to neutralize the urine salts.

STEP 4: REPEAT Steps 1 and 2. If the spot does not come out, do NOT attempt any further action, as you may set the spot and/or damage your carpet.

Instead, call us immediately. If you call after business hours, try to keep it moist until morning by misting a little more solution or water. Leave a voice mail message and we will contact you immediately the next business day.
