Top tips
Tip 1
Rugs will shed fibres especially when new. Vacuum rugs regularly to remove dirt and excess fibre. Use a suction type vacuum cleaner with a rotating brush attachment to prevent damage. If loose strands occur, trim with scissiors, do not pull
Tip 2
Blot wet spills with an absorbent tissue, do not rub - use caution as colour transfer to other objects could occur & damage property
Tip 3
Clean with mild carpet shampoo or consult a professional carpet cleaner for a deep clean
