Carpet Cleaning in Fredrick, CO

Whether or not you have a mudroom, you can create a welcome area for guests and loved ones to stop and remove their shoes. Place a thick welcome mat at the door you use most (and every entrance to the outside, for that matter) and, if there’s room, place a bench or chair and a shoe rack. By creating a comfortable area, you won’t dread having to take off your shoes. 

Plus, a noticeable area will make your “no shoes” policy clear so, hopefully, you won’t have to spell it out for guests. However, don’t be shy about telling people who don’t take the hint; you might even consider putting a sign somewhere noticeable in the entryway.

If you have a pet (or pets), you likely require more carpet cleanings than your average person. Still, you can bring the number down by regularly trimming your pet’s fur. Also, keep a towel by the entrance and wipe down their paws whenever they come back inside.

Additionally, by keeping the areas around your home clean, you might decrease your chances of tracking in dirt and other debris. Sweep the pathways, porches, patios, and garage floors and regularly wash your welcome mats.

By using one door into your home, you’ll limit the pathways through which dirt can enter your house, and you’ll have an easier time keeping track of the area where it does. This rule will prove particularly useful in bad weather when you’re coming in with mud and other gunk on your shoes. 

Keeping your doors closed will prevent dirt from blowing into your home and finding its way into nooks, crannies, and your carpet.
