Did you know when you purchase a new home or a new carpet that it typically comes with a 7-10 year manufactures warranty?

Did you know that if there are any issues with the carpet, such as the wrong dyes, fiber issues that cause the carpet to stretch or sag, or an issue where fibers just start falling out of the carpets.

One thing you may not realize is that as part of the manufacturer’s warranty, most larger companies such as Shaw require you to get your carpets cleaned professionally at least once a year. Failure to maintain your carpets and provide the manufacture with proof of receipt can result in a Warranty Claim on your carpets being denied.

Make sure you keep copies or digital receipts of your carpet cleans. Also, make sure the Technician completing the carpet cleaning is ICCRC certified or similar industry standard.

Hopefully, you will never need to make a warranty claim on your carpets, but if you do, this should help the warranty claim process go much quicker.
