The Best Approach to Removing Glue from a Carpet

We were called to this carpet by our client. They have had some building work done in their home, but the builder had left the plastic carpet protector down far too long. This meant that the friction of being walked on had transferred the glue from the sheet onto the carpet.

As this had happened over a long period of time, it meant that the glue had really affected the carpet fibres. If there is ever a challenge, we feel may dictate the results we can achieve, we will always discuss these with our clients. We were able to remove a lot of the glue but not all, client very happy with the results. It made a real difference to them.

As well as sticky carpet protection we also understand that anti-slip rug underlay can also do the same thing. It will stick to the carpet and your rug and steady the movement. Although this seems to be an appropriate way of keeping your rug still, lots of our clients report it leaving a tacky appearance after removing it.

If your carpet is tacky or sticky, it will easily attract dirt. This will offer an unsightly appearance really quickly. If you would like advice and information on carpet cleaning how best to regularly clean your carpets, get in touch by calling FREE on 0800 695 3455.

This is a really important part of the process. If children are sitting on the carpet each day it is vital that it is sanitary for them to do so. As with many commercial carpets, children will be using the area with their shoes on. They may be playing, eating or drinking on the carpet so it is easy to see how it became so ingrained with dirt. It is not acceptable to leave the carpet in this way, so we were happy to help.

How to clean carpets:

We use an antimicrobial treatment as standard in all of our carpet cleaning services.

Firstly, we apply a pre-treatment of an antimicrobial solution to the fibres of the carpets. We leave this to work with our cleaning solution, and then use an agitation machine to gently ensure all fibres receive the treatment.

Secondly, after a dwell time, we then thoroughly rinse the solutions and the dirt from the carpet. Another treatment can be done; this gives you a double cleaning solution.

Our antimicrobial treatment destroys virtually all germs. Although this provides a sanitised and clean carpet, there is no harsh smell. Products are carefully formulated in order to remove dirt and bacteria but not to overpower the area that has been cleaned.

Cleaning dirty carpets is really important, especially where children are involved. They will suffer less from allergens and bacteria. We aim in many ways to keep our children safe so this needs to remain as a high priority task. If you would like to enquire about how carpets cleaners can help you, please call 0800 695 3455.
