We had an issue with our upstairs hall carpet when we first moved in
to our new house. We were told that the previous owners had kept two
rather large dogs in the house - for much of the day it seems. And when
we finally moved in and began to paint and redo much of the interior
decor, we discovered how much those dogs used and abused the floors. It
almost seemed as if the owners never let the dogs out, from the amount
of mess that we're talking about.
Now this was a cause for concern obviously, as this was not only a
matter of aesthetic appearance, but also health in my mind. I'm talking
about the overwhelming degree of dog messes to the upstairs carpets in
particular. It even appears that the previous owners had started to
replace the carpeting in all three bedrooms just prior to moving. But
they left the upstairs hallway and stairs undone so we could see what
damage must have been done to all the carpet on the second floor. At
any rate, one of our first stops in our indoor renovation of the house
was the Carpet Shop.
The carpet was easy enough to replace thanks to the selection and
service provided by that shop. But the damage done to the underlying
structural wood panels was not. We could only do our best to clean up
the stains we could see and hope that there weren't too many others that
we couldn't.
