Why Hire a Carpet Cleaning Service ?

Professionals deep clean carpets as opposed to home carpet machines that can only remove dirt from the surface.

What to expect from a professional

A professional carpet cleaning service performs the following tasks:

  • Inspects your carpet to determine the best cleaning methods.
  • Pre-treats stains and spots as needed.
  • Applies a cleaning solution to loosen soil.
  • Removes cleaning solution and soil along with the rinse water, leaving the carpet clean.
  • Re-treats spots and stains if needed.

If requested, the service can also apply a carpet protector for additional protection

Caring for your carpet in between professional cleanings

It is important to remember carpets are made from different fibers, so not all carpets are cared for the same way.

Each carpet manufacturer recommends different treatment methods for cleaning carpets depending on fiber content and construction. It’s important to check with the manufacturer to determine which method is best for your carpet. Manufacturers often offer toll free numbers as a service to their customers. Or you can check their web site for carpet care information.

Basic daily care

Regular care and correct treatments can extend the life of the carpet.

Vacuum your carpets thoroughly to pick up as much dirt as possible. It is a good idea, in fact, to vacuum several times from different angles to loosen dirt so it gets picked up. Experts agree that a single pass with the vacuum doesn’t pick up much dirt. You really need to make 3-5 passes with the vacuum.

If you do spill, blot stains, don´t scrub them. Avoid soap, ammonia, or too much water, especially if the weather or the house itself is cool. Too much moisture may give molds and mildews a foothold, which can be a costly, annoying problem.
