Wool carpets

Generally, wool carpets are available in two different alternatives. These include 100% wool or 80/20 wool mix carpet. To fully appreciate this type of carpet we thought we would highlight some of the advantages of a wool carpet.

Advantages of Wool Carpets

Durability

As a natural material, wool provides long-lasting durability and strength. It is a robust material that has good elasticity. This means that issues such as pile compression and tracking marks are significantly minimised. This also helps to make a wool look great over time.

Comfort

Wool as a material offers great luxury, comfort and warmth. It acts as an insulator which helps to retain heat and keep your floors warmer than other materials. Furthermore, wool will work to act as a sound absorber which is great for busy homes and large spaces.

Stain and Fire Resistance

As a natural fibre, it contains oils that are resistant to dirt. It will also work to repel other oil-based dirt which helps reduce staining and soiling. Wool is naturally fire resistant and has a slow ignition rate. Therefore, this offers great peace of mind for people looking to fit wool carpets in their homes.

A Natural and Sustainable Product

Shearing sheep of their wool is a crucial part of their care. This is a needed process that is then regrown the following year. As such, it is a completely sustainable product. Furthermore, as a natural material it is biodegradable in soil. This process itself produces plant nutrients and makes 100% wool carpets a brilliant choice for those with a focus on preservation.

Most importantly, wool carpets can be deep cleaned by professionals, leaving them hygienically clean. The steam cleaning process attacks any ingrained dirt and grime and removes it to leave beautifully cleaned and perfectly cared for wool carpets.

Our client in Preston made contact to see if we could help clean her wool carpet. A mystery stain had been found and they were concerned about damaging the wool fibres. We were able to deep clean the stair carpet, eliminating the carpet stain and leaving their wool carpet hygienically clean. Call to request a carpet cleaning quote on 0800 695 3455.

Sanitising carpets

Sanitising Carpets in Schools

Schools are indeed a prime example of having to been extremely thorough about their cleaning processes. This is a school we cleaned in Fullwood, Preston recently. Some of the carpets were past their best and in need of replacing. However, with a deep clean we were able to prolong the life of the carpets. Not only do they look brighter, but the school are in the knowledge that they are not only deeply cleaned but also properly sanitized. This is incredibly important for both the staff and the students at the school.

When people consider cleaning carpets, they are usually thinking about stain removal and improving the appearance of your carpets. These are incredibly important elements. However, it is also important to appreciate the health and hygiene benefits of professional carpet cleaning.

Some do not know that poor hygiene within your carpets can lead to health issues. Bacteria, allergens and other harmful elements cannot be seen. This does not mean that they are not bad for your health. These can cause respiratory issues, allergies and skin irritation. These are just some of the issues caused.

Respiratory issues are probably the most common. Debris can be expelled into the air and breathed in. This can exacerbate problems for those suffering but can also cause issues for those who have never experienced any.

If you are suffering with allergy-like symptoms, it is important to consider that the cause could be your carpets. Even if they don’t look soiled. This leads seamlessly into skin irritation. Rashes, itchy patches, athlete’s foot and even eczema can be caused by dust mites in a carpet.

By requesting the help of an expert carpet cleaner, you are able to avoid any of these and achieve sanitized carpets. Call Brights Cleaning on 0800 695 3455.
