No matter how tidy your home is, carpet stains are almost inevitable—especially in busy households. From red wine mishaps to muddy footprints, certain stains can feel impossible to remove. But with the right knowledge and professional equipment, even the most stubborn blemishes don’t stand a chance. At K&S Carpet Cleaning Aylesford, we’ve seen it all—and removed it all.
Here are the top five most common carpet stains and how professionals deal with them:
1. Red Wine
Spilled red wine is a classic culprit, and it sets in quickly. Professionals treat this with a combination of enzymatic cleaners and stain-lifting solutions that break down the tannins without damaging the carpet fibres.
2. Pet Accidents
Urine and vomit aren’t just unsightly—they carry odours and bacteria. We use bacterial enzyme treatments that neutralise both the smell and the stain, sanitising the area thoroughly.
3. Coffee
Coffee contains both tannins and oils, making it a tricky stain. A specialist pre-treatment followed by hot water extraction can effectively lift both the colour and the residue.
4. Mud and Soil
These stains are often ground into the fibres over time. A thorough agitation and rinse process, paired with high-powered suction, lifts even deeply embedded dirt.
5. Grease and Oil
Greasy stains from food or machinery are some of the most stubborn. Professionals use solvent-based cleaners to dissolve the oil and remove it without leaving residue.
