How to Maintain Rental Carpeting or Apartment Carpeting
Any landlord knows how hard it is to keep a rental clean. Maybe a tenant smokes, has a pet that had a “few accidents” or a small infant. Accidents happen and aside from relying on your tenant to perform a spot cleaning and hope for the best, your wall-to-wall carpeting could have a much more limited life compared to the ultra careful homeowner. So what do you do?
Apartment Carpet Replacement Cost vs Carpet Cleaning Services
When a renter moves out it is your responsibility assess whether or not the carpeting is up-to-snuff. If there are a few stains here and there, or the carpeting has been compressed from heavy furniture sitting on it, a professional carpet cleaner can usually be able to get more life from the carpet. Even a carpet that smells stale or has a particular odor can benefit from a deep cleaning to sanitize the fibers. Generally pet deposits are a nonreturnable fee in anticipation of more wear and tear on a carpet and this can be used towards a freshening. But if a carpet has a lot of staining, or there is a significant odor, such as cat urine which has been left untreated, a carpet replacement may be the best way to start fresh.
