Yard looks as nice as your carpet.

Yard looks as nice as your carpet.  Real question should be does the carpet match the drapes.

Very Nice! Carpet looks brand new. What was your mixture ratio? Thanks! one pint white vinegar three pints water (roughly). Did one section at a time from the front to back. Saturated the section with water, scrubbed with brush to loosen any dirt, debris etc, rinsed off, then sprayed down with the white vinegar/water mixture and let set for four -five minutes, scrubbed with brush then rinsed off while continuing to scrub. Once all sections were done, I used a wet vac to get any left over water out of the carpet and let it dry in the sun for a couple of hours. Once dry, I use a clean bursh against the grain to "fluff" up the carpet so it looks new. Full disclosure, this was someone elses method that I had written down but can't find where I got it from, but it works! I wish I had taken some before pics cause it had red dirt all over it from almost getting stuck in the mud at possum kingdom several weeks ago.

for single spot cleaning the product is called Fantastic, it comes in a spray bottle - get some to have on hand... spray on area and use a towel to work into the area, in a short order the spot is gone, great stuff and it won't hurt the carpet or the glue...

Pressure washer held at a safe distance.
I’m through with the scrubbing part of my life.

All I use is water a brush and a shop vac. I do a section at a time, back deck, floor, front deck. I wet it down, let it soak, brush where needed, then vacuum it up. So far I haven’t needed any soap.
