How to Remove Coffee or Tea Stains from Your Carpet

Act quickly to minimise the damage

Grab a clean cloth and blot up as much of the liquid as possible. Don’t rub the stain, as this can help assist dyes to fix deeper into the fibers of the carpet. Take a dry towel and apply pressure or weight until no more of the spill is transferred to the towel. Otherwise contact a professional Coffee stain removal company like us to help you out.
