Keeping a neutral toned carpet clean can be a nightmare.
The usual wear and tear of daily life can cause havoc with the floor covering, especially when it is on stairs.
The steps can really take a battering but one mum has shared a technique that will leave carpets looking as good as new.
She shared the transformation method in the Hinch Army Cleaning Tips Facebook page where users regularly share their best cleaning hacks.
‘Our stairs get a lot of traffic with kids running straight upstairs from outside so I read somewhere about ‘Elbow Grease’ and thought I would give it a bash before ringing in a professional cleaner,’ she wrote.
She explained that she used two products which cost £4 in total. Meanwhile, the thorough clean was carried out in just four steps.
First, she sprayed Elbow Grease on the carpet and left it sit for 10 minutes. Next, she rubbed in Dr Beckmann carpet cleaner and let it work its magic for 20 minutes.
She then ‘scrubbed with warm water and a hard brush and then rubbed it with a white towel.’
In before and after pictures, the difference is astounding. The once stained and blackened carpet is now sparkling and fresh.
Understandably, those in the comments were amazed at the renewal.
‘You should be so proud, your house is clearly well-loved and lived in which is the same for the majority of us who don’t all have ‘show homes,’ wrote one user.
‘Great job. I hope everyone will take their shoes off after all your hard work,’ said another.
While a third commented: ‘Amazing job – looks like a huge amount of hard work. Well done you.’
