Are you getting ready for the holidays? These carpet cleaning tips will likely help you out soon!
Making Christmas Cleanup Easier
Your #1 rule this season will be to clean up any spills right when they happen. The longer you wait the worse the cleanup will be and the more likely to stain.
You are most likely to have some spills this during Christmas time. Even if you take precautions and warn all of your guests not to spill. 🙂 Especially if kids are coming over.
Make it a habit to clean up messes right away. Christmas cleanup will be so much easier and less expensive.
The Dreaded Chocolate Stain!
Are you going to be opening up a box of chocolates near carpeting this year? Chocolate stains are very common this is what to do:
Step 1: Scrape it off gently. Do your best not to spread it or press it into the carpet fibers.
Step 2: Use some carbonated water with a cloth to gently dab the area.
Step 3: Next is more dabbing. Use another cloth, warm water with dish soap. Gently dab and then wait 1 hour.
Step 4: Use cold water and a clean cloth to make passes across the area.
This should get the stain out. Repeat the steps until you see results.
Bright Bright Red Cranberry Sauce Stains
Cranberry sauce consistency is sticky and when cleaning sticky remember not to spread it! Here’s how to clean it:
Step 1: Don’t press it! Lift off the cranberry sauce using a spoon.
As with chocolate you should dab a cloth and carbonated water on the area. You can also dab with dish soap and cool water like with chocolate. Dabbing is the key.
Step 3: If the spill is on a couch cushion.
Mix 1/4 cup of rubbing alcohol and 1 tsp of white vinegar. Dab it gently onto the stain. Wait 15 min and then gently blot it dry.
Turkey & Grease Stains (Oil-Based Stains)
Remember our #1 rule? We need to act quickly with oil based stains.
Step 1: Dab the area with paper towels gently. Continue until it doesn’t look like you are soaking anything else up.
Step 2: Sprinkle the area with either baby powder or corn starch. Wait 10 minutes and then vaccum it up!
Step 3: If it’s still not coming out all the way, spray the area with a carpet cleaning product like Spot Shot. Wait 10 minutes and then use paper towels to dab.

A Google User6/26/2017Advanced Carpet's staff was professional, friendly, and was able to come out very quickly after I called. I also felt the price was reasonable. They eliminated pet odor from our carpets and the carpet looked and felt clean upon completion. Would definitely recommend/use them again.

We had a large protein shake spill on our carpet and found it was very difficult to get out, particularly the smell. After about a week of trying to shampoo it on our own, we decided to enlist professional help. Gary was able to fit us in the same day we called. He and his team were very conscientious, knowledgeable and enjoyable to work with. They also took the time to explain the process of how they were going to treat the carpet. Given the type of spill it was and that it had been in the carpet for almost a week before calling, they offered to come out an additional time to treat it, if needed. Advance Carpet Care saved us from having to replace our carpet. We are very appreciative to them and highly recommend them to anyone in need of carpet cleaning services.

They went above and beyond our expectations, did a very thorough job and the prices are great. I will recommend Gary and his team to everyone. Great job!
