Post by: Ashmond on 09 March 2012, 12:40
My carpets are flat, dirty and in need of a revival. Anybody got any tips, products or processes to get them back up and fluffy(ish) again

Try a wet vac on them with an all purpose cleaner.

Yep as above, a nice carpet cleaner and a good scrub will get some life back into them. This brush is fantastic for scrubbing carpets:
