Video: Carpet Cleaning Frequency


To maximize the lifespan of your carpet,
it's important to know the recommended
intervals for maintenance measures like
vacuuming and steam cleaning. Today, we're
in San Rafael with diamond certified
expert contributor, Ally Bakhtiari of
City Carpets, to learn more.

People frequently ask how often they should
have their carpets vacuumed. Vacuuming at
least once a week is beneficial to the
life of your carpet, as well as having
them professionally truck-mounted steam
cleaned every 18 months. The reason I say
truck-mounted steam cleaning is because
a truck mount will actually allow the
water to get hot enough to clean the
carpets and restore them to their
natural beauty. To learn more from local

Video: Carpets and Air Quality


If you're wondering what type of floor
is best for indoor air quality, you may
be surprised to hear the answer.
Today, we're in San Rafael with Diamond
Certified expert contributor Lee
Bakhtiari of City Carpets to learn more.
Indoor air quality is important to
everybody, but most especially to people
who suffer from allergy or asthma. The
Carpet and Rug Institute has actually
shown that having an area rug or
wall-to-wall carpeting gives a place for
airborne particulates to land, making it
easier to clean. To learn more from local

Video: Hard Floor Cleaning Tip


Whether you have tile, hardwood, or laminate floors in your home, there's an important cleaning guideline that you don't want to overlook. Today, we're in San Rafael with diamond certified expert contributor Lee Bakhtiari of City Carpets to learn more.

When cleaning any type of hard surface floor, whether it's tile, hardwood, LVT, or laminate, make sure to dry clean it first by either sweeping or vacuuming. Otherwise, adding liquid to it could act like sandpaper on top of a hard surface. Also, remember with hardwood floors, it's not necessary to wet mop.

Video: Choosing a Carpet Fiber


In addition to style and color, an important attribute to look at when selecting a carpet is the type of fiber it's composed of. Today, we're in San Rafael with Diamond Certified expert contributor Lee Bakari of City Carpets to learn more.

Everyone knows style and color are two of the most important factors in choosing a new carpet, but what you might not know is the fiber that you choose is equally important in maintaining appearance, functionality, and cleanability.

Two of the best fibers in carpeting are Stainmaster and wools of New Zealand. Stainmaster is the number one trusted brand in carpet for good reason. It sets the standard for durability, stain, and soil resistance.

Wools of New Zealand are the natural choice for fine wool carpets. They offer outstanding benefits in your home as they act like a natural air filter, trapping allergens like dust and pollen. They also absorb indoor air contaminants and can clean the air of harmful gases.

Make sure you know what your carpet is made out of and the features and benefits of the style that you choose. To learn more from local top-rated companies, visit our Diamond Certified expert reports at experts.diamondcertified.org.
