Food and Beverage Spills

  Had an accident ? Spilt a drink or some food ? What do I do?

 First point is not to panic don’t go charging in with the 1001 you will likely make matters worse. The best advice is to call a professional carpet cleaner in Essex who uses some sort of hot water extraction equipment if you have spilt beer, wine or other beverages last night most of it will have dried by now and the problem with attempting the job your self is that you leave a residue in the carpet and even if it looks an improvement after your attempt at cleaning it will not last and you will normally find the same area will get dirty very quickly! The professional approach will actually rinse out of the carpet most of what has accumulated and most local carpet cleaners in Essex should have a selection of spotting agents that will assist them in further toning down any residual staining and they will then neutralize any thing that has been used.

   If you have spilt some thing of a more solid nature and want to try yourself the safest approach is to first remove by scrapping or blotting the offending matter then using preferably a white towel to continue blotting the stain this will show you if any thing is still being removed do not rub this can damage the carpet  pile just dab using firm pressure. If there is some staining and what remains appears to have dried you can remoisten just by mist spraying some water and try to blot some more if you notice the staining transferring to the towel continue until you can see no further transference. If you are sensible with this approach you may be successful in removing the offending stain if it is still prevalent at this point my suggestion is to call Carpet cleaners Essex on 0800 0683877  for a free quote and some honest advice.

Best of luck  Luc
