A carpet protector is a clear treatment applied to the pile after cleaning. It coats each fibre so that spills sit on the surface for a short time instead of soaking straight in, giving you a better chance to blot them up before they become marks. Carpet protector treatment in Fortitude Valley is usually added to a carpet clean, since the product needs clean fibres to bond to properly.
The crew we book cleans the carpet first with hot water extraction. While the fibres are still slightly damp, they spray the protector evenly across the room and groom it into the pile with a soft brush so it reaches the sides of each fibre, not just the tips. Walkways, dining areas, lounge rooms and the space in front of the couch get the most benefit. The treatment can also be applied to rugs and many fabric couches if you ask on the call. It dries clear and does not change the colour or feel of the carpet. Keep shoes off the treated rooms for a few hours afterwards so the coating can settle into the pile before normal use starts again.

A protector does not make carpet stain proof. Spills still need blotting quickly, and the coating wears down with foot traffic and cleaning over time, so many people reapply it after each clean. It suits homes in Fortitude Valley with light coloured carpet, pets, young kids or regular entertaining. Tell us the rooms you want treated when you call and we will include it in your price range.
