How can you perk carpet up after you mash it down in places? Especially down the hallway and in front of our chairs.

I also used a carpet rake after cleaning the carpet. My first home had this problem. When we were going to sell it we had the carpet cleaned. Then every time a buyer came, and I had time, I raked the carpet real fast. It looked great!
I just wanted to thank Deeli. Even though this post is nearly two years old, the link she provided saved me a lot of money (nearly forty dollars!) Thank you Deeli!
Easy fix! No need to buy a carpet rake if you have a dog brush, the wire kind....even a wire cat brush. Spray a little water to dampen it, brush it and don't walk on it 'til dry.
Ice cubes wink eliminate dents in the carpet caused by heavy furniture. You can also use a steamer to fluff up the nap.
