The average carpet lifespan is somewhere around 10 years, but taking the proper steps can ensure that yours lasts even longer. Here’s a breakdown of our best advice on how to increase the lifespan of your carpets.
Carpet Grooming & Vacuuming
The best carpet cleaning Sioux Falls has to offer is a great start, and regular carpet cleanings are a must to avoid costly carpet replacements, but there’s plenty you can do to maintain your investment.
Regular vacuuming is a must, especially in highly trafficked areas of your southeastern South Dakota home. Learn how often you need to vacuum »
Not many people take the time for this unless they’re selling their home, but some carpet grooming efforts will go a long way. Grooming takes that next step beyond vacuuming to keep your carpets in good shape until their next professional cleaning.

Watch What You Track In
There are a lot of tiny efforts you can make to maintain your carpets as well.
Taking shoes off in the house, wiping your dogs paws on the way back in, and other attempts to control what enters your home (and gets into your carpets) can make a big difference.
Duct cleanings can also help protect your carpets – the less dirt in the air, the less dirt settles into your carpeting. Combined with regular Intek carpet cleaning services, you’ll be able to stay ahead of all the dust and particles building-up in your home.

Let Replacement Costs Motivate You
So when we say the average lifespan is 10 years, it’s because a lot of folks neglect their carpet and only get about half that time out of them before they have to cough up the money for new carpets.
Meanwhile, the people who take the time to vacuum, groom, and get regular professional cleanings can expect their carpets to last closer to 15 years. Here’s a comparison of the cost of replacing carpeting vs. hiring professional cleaners like Intek.
