According
to Shaw Industries and the IICRC, proper daily and professional
maintenance will lengthen the life of the carpet or other flooring by 2
-3 times.
On
average, commercial carpet is replaced every 5 years and residential
carpet is replaced every 7 years with an Infrequent Maintenance
schedule.
Thus when comparing the Total Cost of Ownership of Infrequent
Maintenance versus Planned Maintenance, you must add
the Total Cost of
Ownership every 5 or 7 years in the Infrequent Maintenance column.
For Planned Maintenance, the Total Cost of Ownership is only
added once in the Planned Maintenance Column. However, maintenance costs
will be carried annually through that 10 -15 year comparison.
Since
replacement costs are dramatically reduced through Planned Maintenance,
you normally can increase your professional maintenance by 200-400% and
still save a lot of money.
This equation is great for the sophisticated consumer and the
biggest number-crunching accountant.

With
proper maintenance we can extend the life of your carpet.
This
means large savings for you!
After you have added
all of your expenses in the Infrequent Maintenance column, and the
Planned Maintenance Column, takes those totals and divide by the
amount of years using the below chart.
This is giving you the true annual cost of ownership. The
longer you can put of replacement, the more you will save and the
lower annual cost of ownership. After
honest evaluation, you will see that a planned maintenance program
will save you tons of money in the long run, retains
the beauty of your investment, saves you time and upset (from
picking out new materials, moving furniture, removal of old goods,
installment of new goods), is better for the environment, and adds
to the Indoor Air Quality of your business or home
