Stain Guard in Glen Spey & Port Jervis, New York

Carpets can elevate the appearance of any space. However, carpet installation is expensive, and everyone wants their investment to last as long as possible. One thing that worries people most about the carpets is the stubborn stains that they sustain from coffee, wine, fruit drinks, soft drinks, or other spills. Stains make the carpets look unsightly, damage the fibers, and lower their lifespan. Most new carpets have built-in stain protection. However, its effectiveness reduces after a few years. It is imperative to ensure that carpet stain protection treatment is applied after every professional carpet cleaning job to ensure your carpets stay protected from stains.

Stain guard resistants and protectors protect the carpet from developing a permanent stain. They are applied with a sprayer to coat the fibers after carpet cleaning. It helps create an extra protective layer around the fibers to enhance their resistance to stains. When any liquid spills, stain guards prevent it from immediately soaking into the carpet fibers, giving you some time to clean it and preserve the carpet’s appearance. However, if spills are not clean and left to sit on the carpet for an extended period, they can penetrate the fibers and cause stains.


A stain guard is easy to apply, avoids liquid stains, improves the carpet's appearance and longevity, prevents odors, makes the stain easier to remove during a professional cleaning, and offers superior repellency to allow cleaning up the spills before they soak in.

Is it worth getting a carpet protector?

Several people often wonder if stain protection is worth the extra cost along with carpet cleaning. Carpet protectors may come with an additional price, but they are definitely worth the money depending on how the carpet is used. You need to consider the use and abuse your carpet sees before investing in a carpet protector. 


Homes where carpets are installed in areas where they are used less frequently, see lower foot traffic, or there are no pets and kids may do without a carpet protector. However, a carpet that sees a lot of footfall, there are kids and pets that make a bit of mess on the carpets, people consume food and drinks in carpeted areas, shoes are allowed on the carpets, and if the carpets are not vacuumed regularly, carpet stain protector is a worthy investment. The type of carpet and the cost of stain protectors against buying a new carpet can also help determine whether or not you need a carpet stain protector. 


Experts advise professional carpet cleaning annually. Carpet cleaners will reapply the stain protection every time the carpet is cleaned to keep them looking fresh and clean.
