It is important to protect your carpet through proper care and maintenance. 3M ScotchGard Protection allows you to prevent stains from penetrating your carpet. We recommend 3M ScotchGard Protection as a preventive measure against long-term carpet damage.

Why Apply Carpet Protector?

Isn’t shampooing your carpet enough? What are the other benefits of applying carpet protector? We at Spectrum provide the following benefits when we apply 3M ScotchGard Protection to your floor.

• Prevents soil from sticking to the carpet fibers, making vacuuming more efficient.
• Resists moisture penetration and hinders stain from setting, making stain removal a more successful endeavor.
• Increases the lifespan of your carpet while improving its overall appearance.

Other Factors to Consider

Most carpets come with both stain and soil protection qualities. However, foot traffic and regular use will wear off the initial protection in 2-4 years. We recommend that you reapply a protective barrier after receiving a professional carpet cleaning. 3M is an innovative corporation whose products are water-based and safe for almost every type of carpet. Similar to wax on a vehicle’s paint, or Teflon on a cooking pan, the 3M products protect your carpet by repelling water, oil, and dirt. It also makes cleaning the surface far easier.

Does Your Carpet Need Extra Protection?

If your carpet sees a lot of foot traffic, or you have pets or small children, we recommend you call us as soon as possible. Not only can you schedule a professional carpet cleaning, we will use products to protect your carpet and increase its overall lifespan.

Still Have Questions?

Here are some frequently asked questions that might answer a few of yours.

1. “What products do you use and recommend?”

Our products are non-toxic and hypo-allergenic. As already mentioned, we recommend 3M ScotchGard Protection, the world’s best-known carpet and upholstery protection. Not only does it protect your carpet and furnishings from oil-based spills, but it also protects against damaging dry soils.

2. “Can you guarantee full stain removal?”

Please keep in mind that fiber damage cannot be restored in the cleaning process. Additionally, some spots on the carpet might be permanent due to a color change in the fibers. This means the original color is no longer present.

Occasionally, a spot may be removed during the cleaning process only to come back a few days later. We will be glad to re-treat this area if you call us within one week of the original appointment.

3. “How do I know I am getting the best service possible?”

Our uniformed technicians are all certified and trained by the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration. (IICRC). They are professionals and will make every effort to leave your carpet in the best condition possible.
