Stain Protection
We’ve made your carpet and upholstery look like NEW AGAIN™ – now let’s keep them that way! Protectant is a spray that attaches itself to the fibers of your carpet, rugs, and upholstery creating a protective barrier. Ayoub Carpet Service® specializes in spot and soil resistance using only the best protectants for your carpet and upholstery. While a protectant is no guarantee, it will certainly act as a defense against spots or soil turning into stains. We serve the areas of Northern Virginia, including Alexandria, Arlington, Falls Church, McLean, Vienna, and Chantilly, as well as Montgomery County MD, and DC. For questions or service, call us today at (703) 255-6000.
Benefits of Protectant
Your rugs, carpets, and upholstery undergo a lot of traffic – maybe some areas more than others. Dining room rugs have food particles even the best vacuums cannot reach; regularly used couches have microscopic body oil and grease particles; and wall-to-wall carpets can store up to 4,000 times their weight in dirt, germs, and bacteria brought in by your shoes, children, and/or pets. While having your rugs, upholstery, and carpets regularly cleaned by a professional cleaning company is necessary for decreasing all of these issues, applying a post-cleaning protectant can be equally as important. Here’s why:
- Vacuuming is more thorough because dirt is less likely to stick.
- Helps keep your furnishings stay cleaner and last longer.
- It creates a protective barrier to prevent spots and spills from permeating the fiber.
Adding a protectant not only makes it easier to clean up spots and spills when they happen, but it also helps professional carpet and upholstery cleaners during yearly cleanings. Experts can always tell when a protectant was added – every spot comes up with ease and the carpet and upholstery is left looking like NEW AGAIN!™

Carpet Protectant
Most wall-to-wall carpet is made with nylon fibers – and most of the time new carpet comes with a stain-resistant barrier. But like any protectant, it does not last forever. Over time, with wear, the protectant breaks down leaving the fibers susceptible to staining. It is important to have your wall-to-wall carpet inspected by a professional in order to determine if it is time to add protectant.
Rug & Upholstery Protectors
Specialty fabric? That's no problem for Ayoub Carpet Service®! Our Sentry Shield CA-1 Fine Fabric Protector is a solvent-based fluorochemical treatment that imparts both oil and water repellency to fabrics and carpet and is safe for use on delicate fabrics. What's even better? Sentry Shield dries up to four times faster than the alternatives! This means you can spend less time standing or tiptoeing through the house waiting for your textiles to dry you can spend more time relaxing in your clean, protected home.
Area Rug Protectant
Most fine area rugs are made with wool or a combination of wool and silk – both of which are natural fibers. Natural fibers are much more likely to absorb liquid than nylon fibers (what most wall-to-wall carpet is made of) – meaning the difference between spilling coffee on a nylon fiber versus a wool fiber is astronomical. Wool absorbs 30% of any liquid that touches it. Removing a stain from a wool rug with no protectant can be challenging and there are no guarantees it can be fully removed. This is why rug experts recommend having a protectant applied to your area rugs following every cleaning – about once every two to three years.
Furniture Protectant
Some new furniture will come with a layer of stain protection, but this wears out within a short span, making your sofas more susceptible to soiling and staining. There are various benefits to adding a protectant:
- Prolongs the freshly cleaned appearance of your furniture
- Extends the life of your furniture
- Offers effective stain protection
- Repels liquid
- Boosts indoor air quality
- It’s budget-friendly
