This carpet was laid less than a year ago, it should last a good ten years, what do you think? I will never understand how people live in filth! the clean place is where he had his bed in the floor! Do you?

The carpet our landlord put down two years ago will need to be replaced when we move out. If I owned the house, I would have called the installer the day we moved in....it was t installed properly (or it's flawed carpet). The seam in the living room has had 'threads' popping up since the first day...I trim them so they don't catch, keeping it less noticeable. The doorway between the carpeted area and the non carpeted area has frayed out from under the metal separator. (Almost since the first day) Stains have appeared in areas that no one walks, or could possibly spill things. That said, when I carpeted the apartment s I owned.....my first tenant was the for a year. The carpeting looked virtually brand new when they moved. The next tenant???? Catches, stains....we shampooed twice and they were only there for six months.

I have this same carpet in another of my houses and its been there for several years, the difference is she cleans her house and cares. I once rented an apartment and the carpet was bad, so many fibers came up when I vacuumed it would stop up the vacuum cleaner every time.

Light colored carpets do attract more dirt than other colors.

why was it not maintained?. We purchase things spending a good amount. But we show little interest in the maintenance. Such articles should be maintained frequently. This is the meaning of maintenance. This is the duty of every member in a house. So once in a month apply some baking soda and hot water over such markings.Rub lightly a lemon peel over it. After 5 minutes clean with some lukewarm water. Finally, clean it with a vacuum cleaner.

This is a rental house and I did inspect but this was done in the last 10 weeks, when he was under eviction, OR it just build up over the entire 5 months he lived there.

I guess it would be better to just put a regular floor.
