A protector treatment is applied after a carpet clean and works by giving the fibres a layer that makes everyday spills sit on the surface for longer, giving you more time to blot a spill before it sets into a mark. In Chermside homes this is most often booked for hallways, living rooms and any carpet near an outside door, since these are the areas that take the most foot traffic and the most accidental spills.
The treatment is applied evenly across the room once the carpet clean itself is finished and the fibres have had a chance to dry to the right point, since applying it too early or too late changes how well it takes to the pile. The crew we book will explain the drying and settling time for Chermside's weather on the day, since humidity changes how long the treatment needs before the room can be walked on again normally.
Protector treatment is not a substitute for cleaning spills up when they happen, and it will wear down over time with regular foot traffic, so it is usually reapplied at a future clean rather than expected to last indefinitely. It suits busy households with kids, pets or a lot of visitors through the front door, where everyday spills are more likely.
