How to Care for Carpets and Majlis Cushions

Carpets and the majlis receive your guests the most, and they take the most dust and spills.

Regular care protects them and delays the need for a deep clean.

These are simple tips you can follow yourself, with no special tools.

For carpets

  • Vacuum regularly. Built-up dust works into the fibers and is harder to remove later.
  • Treat a spill right away. Lay a clean, dry cloth on it to soak up the liquid. Do not rub, because rubbing pushes it deeper.
  • Start with the gentlest method. Try water or a mild cleaner, and test any product on a hidden corner first.
  • Avoid strong bleach on colored carpets.
  • Move the carpet around from time to time, so one walking path does not wear out and one side does not fade.

For majlis cushions and backrests

  • Air them in the shade now and then. Fresh air reduces trapped smells.
  • Avoid long, direct sun. It fades colors.
  • Follow the care label on the fabric. If the covers come off, wash them as the label says.
  • Do not soak the filling. If it gets wet, dry it completely before use.
  • Swap the cushions around from time to time, so the use is shared across all of them.
  • Wipe up coffee and tea at once. They are what spills on a majlis most.

Daily habits that protect carpets

  • Take shoes off at the entrance of the majlis or living room.
  • Put a small mat at the door to catch dust.
  • Put protective pads under the legs of heavy furniture, so they do not leave marks in the carpet.

Dry it completely

A carpet or cushion that stays damp picks up a bad smell.

So:

  • Open the windows or run the AC after washing.
  • Do not put furniture back until the carpet is fully dry.
  • Do not fold or store a damp carpet.

Drying can take longer in closed spaces, so give it enough time.

When to call a professional

Home care may not be enough in some cases:

  • A large or old stain that will not come out.
  • A smell that stays after airing.
  • A carpet that looks dull from built-up dirt.
  • Before guests arrive or an event at home.
  • An old, expensive or hand-made carpet: ask first which method suits its type.
