How often should carpets be professionally cleaned?

We recommend having your carpets professionally cleaned at least once every 6–12 months under normal household conditions. For homes with pets, children, or allergy concerns, more frequent cleanings — around every 3–6 months — are often very beneficial.

Frequent cleaning helps remove deep-seated dirt, allergens, and dust mites that regular vacuuming can’t fully address.  High-traffic areas (like living rooms or hallways) can especially benefit from more frequent service.  Regular cleanings also help prolong the lifespan of carpet fibers by reducing abrasive particles that wear them down over time. 

At Lepore Cleaning Services, our base carpet cleaning packages (e.g., 3-room, 2-room) give you an affordable way to keep your carpets fresh throughout the year. For homes with pets or strong odors, we also offer pet-odor / urine treatment add-ons.
