Q.   I've heard it's best to put off having your carpet cleaned as long as possible, is this true?   No. In fact, many of the major carpet mills today recommend professional cleaning at least once per year. The build up of soil in your carpet in combination with foot traffic creates abrasion that breaks down your carpet\'s fibers. The higher the traffic in a given area, the more often the carpet will need cleaning. Professional cleaning does not replace the weekly maintenance that you, the householder has to undertake, but it is essential for the weekly maintenance to remain effective.   Sr. Comments Posted Date 1 Posted By :bal 2008-07-29 20:13:08   sdfsdhtyur   2 Posted By :bal 2008-07-29 20:12:49   sdfsdfs   3 Posted By :raju 2008-04-13 23:46:20   test1     1
