When a dog urinates on carpet, act promptly: blot the area with a clean white cloth to absorb as much liquid as possible — do not rub. Use a pet‑safe enzyme cleaner or a cleaning product recommended for the specific fibre to neutralise odour and treat the stain; always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Blot to lift moisture and, if appropriate, lightly rinse with clean water and blot dry. Allow the area to dry completely before vacuuming to restore p…
How do I remove tar off my new carpet?How to remove tar from a carpet depends on whether it is soft or hardened. If soft, carefully lift excess with a blunt edge; for hardened tar, firming it with ice in a sealed bag can make lifting easier. Always blot spills with a clean white cloth and avoid rubbing, which can spread the stain or damage fibres. Test any treatment on an inconspicuous area first and follow the carpet or manufacturer care instructions. For valuable wool or woven carpets, or if…
How best to clean blood stain from carpet?Treat fresh blood stains promptly. Blot — do not rub — with a clean white cloth to lift as much as possible, working from the outside of the stain toward the centre. Use cold water sparingly to help dilute and lift the mark, dabbing rather than saturating the carpet. Test any manufacturer care instruction or product on an inconspicuous area first and follow the carpet maker’s guidance. For valuable wool or woven carpets, persistent or large stains, seek pr…
Charcoal wool carpet gives a deep, natural appearance and suits many interiors. Wool fibres can resist some soiling but are not stain‑proof and need appropriate care. For spills, blot promptly with a clean white cloth — do not rub — and follow the carpet or fibre manufacturer’s care instructions. Regular gentle vacuuming with a suitable setting and soft brush head helps remove surface soil. For valuable wool or woven carpets, seek professional cleaning adv…
Is it okay to use vinegar and water to clean off dog wee off my carpet?Blot up as much urine as possible immediately with a clean white cloth—do not rub, which can spread the stain and damage fibres. Check the carpet fibre’s manufacturer care instructions before applying any product and always test any cleaner on a small, inconspicuous area first. For valuable wool or woven carpets, or for persistent odours and stains, seek advice from BCC at the Taren Point showroom (Unit 3/46 Bay Rd, Taren Point) or call 02 9526 6421 to con…
I spilled coffee on my rug. How do I clean it?Blot a fresh coffee spill promptly with a clean white cloth or paper towel — do not rub, which can push the stain deeper. Work from the outer edge of the stain toward the centre to limit spread and avoid vigorous scrubbing. If a cleaning product is needed, test it first in an inconspicuous area and always follow the carpet manufacturer’s care instructions. For valuable, woven or wool carpets, seek professional advice before attempting removal; BCC can advi…
Blot promptly with a clean white cloth—do not rub. Work from the stain’s outer edge toward the centre, blotting to lift liquid rather than spreading it. Use a very mild detergent solution (a small amount of neutral liquid detergent in cold water) applied sparingly with a clean cloth, then blot to remove the detergent. Rinse by blotting with a cloth dampened in cold water and blot dry. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first and follow the carpet ma…
How do I clean vomit from my new carpet?For vomit on carpet: remove solids promptly without rubbing. Blot the affected area gently with a clean white cloth to absorb moisture, working from the outside edge toward the centre. A mild detergent solution (a few drops of neutral dishwashing liquid in cool to lukewarm water) applied with a clean cloth can be used, blotting rather than scrubbing; rinse with clean water and blot dry. Speed drying with a fan helps. Once dry, baking soda can be tried to h…
What should I do if my dog vomits on the carpet?Act promptly. Remove solids carefully by lifting rather than spreading. Blot excess moisture with a clean white cloth — do not rub.

Is wool carpet easy to keep clean?Wool carpet can be relatively straightforward to maintain, but no fibre is maintenance‑free. Regular vacuuming removes grit and reduces abrasion. Deal with spills promptly by blotting with a clean white cloth — do not rub — and follow the carpet manufacturer’s care instructions for stain treatment and cleaning methods. For valuable wool or woven carpets, seek professional advice before attempting deep cleaning; periodic professional cleaning can help prese…
Is plush pile easier to clean spillage off than looped carpet?Plush pile often allows fresh spills to be blotted from the surface more readily, while looped construction can trap soil and liquids within the loops. Cleanability and durability also depend on fibre type, weave, pile height and traffic levels. For spills: blot promptly with a clean white cloth — do not rub — and follow the carpet manufacturer’s care instructions. For valuable wool or woven carpets, seek professional cleaning advice or contact BCC for gui…
