Cleaning carpet?

Question

I recently purchased a house and unfortunately after I bought, realized the stains in the carpet were urine stains probably from a dog.

I was planning to have the carpet cleaned but now I know it's urine, is cleaning still ok, or do I need to replace?

Answer 1

You can purchase a good cleaning product at pet stores. You will probably need to put it on several times but eventually it worked for me. Can't recall the brand.

Answer 2

Urine stains are almost impossible to remove.

You could have someone come in, pull the carpet back & replace the pad & then have them proffesionally cleaned.

Depending on how many stains there are you could have a carpet guy cut out the stains & seem in new peices from a closet.

You could replace the carpet in the rooms that are the worst.

Good luck

Answer 3

if i were you i would replace it because it has soaked into the padding. you don't know how long it has been there like that.i have tried to clean carpet like that and i would have been better buying new. i tried cleaners, vinegar everything.

Answer 4

Best to replace it or go with a tile or one of the new laminate.Carpets are impossible to get truly clean.
