Protect Your Carpets When Cleaning Up After The Big Freeze

Report this content

The winter weather has left hundreds of thousands of home owners counting the cost of burst pipes, floods and roof damage since the big freeze set in last November. Floor protection products stockist Trio Plus warn further hidden costs could also ramp up the price of repairs as workmen troop in and out of the house in dirty boots and with essential pieces of equipment including paint and adhesives.

Mud, dirt and builders materials can all wreak havoc on carpets and in some cases, even ruin the floor covering. For the more fortunate, a professional carpet clean may lift the dirt but can be quite a costly exercise after paying for insurance excesses on building work. Having supplied floor protection products for carpets and hard floors to large public spaces and busy film sets, Trio Plus know a thing or two about prevention rather than cure. They recommend rolling out a temporary carpet protector such as their double-thickness carpet protection 24-hours before the repairs are due to start. With twice the depth of their regular, best selling carpet protector, the heavy duty roll provides up to 45 days temporary protection so can be left on for the duration of the repairs. At twice the thickness of the standard carpet film, the heavy duty carpet protector is ideal for protecting carpets from the dust, dirt and grime associated with building and repairs – perfect if plumbers are tackling leaks and removing ruined sections of pipe, or painters and plasters are cleaning up after deluges of water from burst radiators and tanks. The self-adhesive film can be applied by hand or by applicator and is quick and easy to roll out. It does not leave any residue or mark on the carpet when removed. Trio Plus also stocks a wide range of other floor protection products for carpets and hard floors. To view the entire range and order online, visit http://www.trioplus.co.uk/.
