Why is it important to have your carpet cleaned?
Imagine coming home after a long day, kicking off your shoes and sinking into your soft, comfortable carpet. Lovely, right? But did you know that carpet also has a hidden side?
Your carpet is like a sponge that absorbs dirt, dust and bacteria on a daily basis. Having your carpet or rug cleaned is therefore more than just a cosmetic matter. It has numerous benefits for your health, the lifespan of your carpet and the overall quality of your interior.
Let's take a look at the top reasons why regular carpet cleaning is essential:
- Health boost: Imagine your carpet as a little jungle. Without regular cleaning, allergens, bacteria and dust mites can roam freely. A thorough cleaning will drive away these unwanted guests, which is especially important if you or your family members suffer from allergies or respiratory problems. Cleaning a flood carpet is therefore very important.
- Enjoy longer: Think of your carpet as a good friend. The better you care for it, the longer it will stay with you. Regular cleaning keeps the fibers in top condition, which not only makes your carpet look better, but also makes it last longer. We can clean your carpet without you having to worry about it.
- Fresh air: A clean carpet is like a natural air freshener for your home. It contributes to better air quality, which is good for the health of you and your family. In this way, everything is clean and fresh again quickly.
- Appearance: Let’s face it, a fresh, clean carpet can improve the look of your entire room. It’s like putting on a new coat – everything suddenly looks better! Not only is everything clean, but it also looks great again. And all the bad smells are gone.
“A clean carpet is not only a feast for the eyes, but also a boost for your health. It's like a spa treatment for your home!” – Anna, our carpet cleaning expert at Randstad Furniture Cleaning. Your carpet cleaning has never been easier.

Our working method for carpet cleaning
Randstad Meubelreiniging has your carpet fresh and clean again quickly. This is due to our special method:
For cleaning
Before we start working on your carpet or rug, we do some detective work. We inspect your carpet thoroughly, as if we were detectives looking for clues. We pay attention to:
- The type of fibers in your carpet (is it a soft wool beauty or a tough synthetic?)
- Present stains and their cause (was it last week's red wine or your dog's muddy paws?)
- The general condition of the carpet (has it endured a lot or is it still in the prime of its life?)
With this information we will create a customized plan. It is like creating a recipe, but for your carpet!
After cleaning
After cleaning, we don't just leave you to your fate. We give you tips and tricks to keep your carpet in top condition. It's like a maintenance manual, but a lot more fun:
- Vacuum regularly (2-3 times a week). Think of it as a workout for your carpet!
- Treat stains immediately. Speed is key, just like catching an ice cream cone that is about to fall.
- Use protective mats at entrances. It's like a welcoming committee for clean feet!
Different methods of carpet cleaning
At Randstad Meubelreiniging we have several strings to our bow when it comes to carpet cleaning. Here are our favorite methods:
- Steam cleaning: This is like a sauna for your carpet. We spray hot water under pressure into the carpet and suck it up again immediately. Effective for removing deep dirt, and your carpet feels wonderfully refreshed!
- Dry cleaning: Perfect for carpets that are a bit afraid of water. We use special powders or foams that absorb the dirt. It is like a dry shampoo, but for your carpet.
- Shampoo cleaning: We brush a foaming shampoo into the carpet and then vacuum it up. Ideal for lightly soiled carpets. It's like a spa day for your carpet!
- Bonnet cleaning: Here we use a spinning pad to rub cleaner into the carpet. It's like a gentle massage for your carpet, perfect for regular maintenance of commercial carpets.
How often should you have your carpet cleaned?
The frequency of carpet cleaning depends on your lifestyle. It’s a bit like washing your hair – some do it daily, others weekly. With carpets, it works like this:
- Do you have a quiet household without children or pets? Then 1-2 times a year is usually enough. It is like a half-yearly check-up.
- Do you have children or pets running around? Then we recommend 3-4 times a year. Think of it as a seasonal cleaning.
- Are there smokers or people with allergies in the house? Then 4-6 times a year is recommended. It is like a monthly detox for your carpet.
