Stains on carpet should be attended to as quickly as possible to increase the chance of removing the stain. The longer the stain remains in the carpet, the higher the chance the stain would become permanent mark.

It is highly recommended to contact a professional carpet cleaning service company to treat the soiled carpet as quickly as possible after the spillage takes place to ensure all the stains are fully removed from the carpet and prevent micro-organisms and bacteria from growing.

When we talk to property and facility managers, they tell us about three primary cause of spills and stains in their facilities:

  • Food and beverages in the office. Coffee and soft drinks can really do a number on your carpet. One of the biggest culprits of messes is employees eating and drinking in the office especially with on-site cafes or food trucks readily available during the day at the office. Some companies encourage employees to stay on-site to eat lunch at their desks. And while these efforts can positively impact productivity, the downside is the increased likelihood of food spills and stains.
  • Messy customers – especially children. Customers rarely have the same care for your office space as you do. They might not pick up after themselves or report when they have spilled something. And if you host children in your space, they can bring a lot of spill risks with them. Crackers, Juice boxes, Kool-Aid, sports bottles, fruit snacks, crayons, markers, chewing gum, or even the dreaded upset tummy can really leave some marks on your upholstery and flooring. This can cause odors too.
  • Unreported spills. The biggest problem is silence no matter who makes the mess. Not reporting a spill right away gives the stain time to soak into a carpet or flooring and it requires professional cleaning to remove. Oils, Salad dressing or dark liquids, such as coffee or wine, can be especially problematic as they attach to the carpet fibers and hold fast. The longer a spill sits on your carpet or upholstery, the tougher it will be to get out. And even if you don’t have carpet, unreported spills leave floors slick and unsafe for pedestrians and increase risk.
