Approach your landlord with your request.
What happens if you don t get carpet in apartment.
Most renters don t pay close attention to the details of moving out of their space when they move into their apartment but most leases stipulate that before handing over your keys on move out day you need to clean your apartment or risk losing a portion of your security deposit.
Pollen will gather in the nooks and crannies pet dander will lie in wait and dust mites will come out in force.
A clean carpet is good for you.
Show the landlord the carpet if possible to help build your case.
The longer a carpet goes without a deep cleaning the harder it is to eventually get it looking good.
You can also get a free copy of your credit or tenant screening reports if a landlord or property manager declines a rental application or takes another adverse action against you.
Despite these tactics however.
Rent a steam cleaner from a local hardware or grocery store and go to town addressing any obvious deep stains first by hand with a professional strength carpet cleaning solution.
A clean carpet can brighten your surroundings and open up the room s space.
Oh those rental unit floors.
You might be surprised at the difference that clean carpet makes in the overall appearance of your apartment.
Floor décor may seem as permanent as a wall but just because you don t own your home doesn t mean you have to live with bad laminate splintering hardwood or pastel.
Your apartment s flooring may seem dire but you can t really know how bad the problem is until you give your carpeting a proper cleaning and fluffing.
Give details about why you think the existing carpet needs replacing.
If you don t dust or vacuum your apartment will turn into an allergen festival.
