Bristol Carpet Cleaners are almost vital if you have surfer in your family. Whether it’s your husband still mourning his university surfing days, or if it’s a son or daughter just getting into the sport – with the long drives from Bristol to the beach at the weekend included in your schedule -- when they come back they’re covered in sand and salt. Having a carpet cleaners Bristol agency handy can be a boon for you at such a time!

It’s not a massive leap to realise that sand and salt residue is not going to do your carpet very much good. Of course when said surfer comes home, with that happy glow about them, they’ll dump towels and wetsuits on your carpet, really not worried about how much your carpet can be damaged by the sand and salt that drops off.

Salt residue and sand will get deep into your carpet’s weave and attack where it’s weakest. While carpet fibres are remarkably strong, when any irritant – like salt, sand, even dust – gets into the material the fibres rub against it and break the fibres down.

Think of those Bristol carpet cleaners in the shampoo adverts where they show a ...
... broken strand of hair miraculously cured by a shampoo or conditioner. Amazing stuff. But the broken ‘before’ shot is how your carpet looks with all that West-country sand and salt worked into it. Contacting a Bristol carpet cleaner for a professional steam clean should be considered your miracle cure!

Steam cleaning your Bristol-home’s carpet in a surfing family should be done at least once every six months if you want your carpet to survive either mid-life crisis or teenage obsession surfing. In the meantime, between steam cleans, make sure that your carpet is vacuumed soon after the sand and salt has been dumped on it.

Although it’s not an easy job, try to encourage your surfers to hose their wetsuits down before hanging them out to dry in the garden or garage, rather than dragging them through the house and dropping all that sand on your carpet. When the wetsuits are dry, make sure they are shaken out to get rid of as much sand as possible.

Obviously wetsuits aren’t the only problem: there are the towels as well, which will have been draped on the car, dropped on the ground, thrown in the boot – all areas guilty of adding more particles that can fall off and damage your carpet when they get back to Bristol from the coast. Back to Bristol may not be a short drive, but it’s also not long, so there’s every chance everything will still be wet, or damp at the very least.

If your surfers aren’t very well house-trained, leave a laundry basket or bag out for them to put towels, rashvests and any other surfy trappings that, if dragged through the house and left on a carpet, could damage your carpets. I’ll bet my bottle dollar as well that if those wet towels and so forth make it back to a bedroom they’ll be dumped on the floor and left to fester and further damage your carpet.

Keeping Bristol weekend surfers under control is a battle at the best of times, but when it comes to carpet care you really need to be pretty rigorous, or face the cost of a new carpet. And if you can’t manage it on your own, carpet cleaners Bristolcompanies are a good option for you to check out.
