Why Should My Carpet Be Regularly Cleaned?

Carpet cleaning is like going to the dentist. You know that you need to go but you keep putting it off. Carpet cleaning is easy to put off. So let me explain why you should have your carpet cleaned.

The first reason is because of the appearance. Clean floors make everything look better. When you have company over do you want them to look at a dirty and stained floor or a clean rug? Of course you want a clean floor. A clean floor shows people that you care about your home and take pride in its appearance.

The next reason is that a clean carpet just lasts longer. Dirt is abrasive and will ruin your carpeting if left in place. Every step you take on the soil in your carpet grinds it into the fibres. This permanently damages the carpet and will cause it to wear out much quicker. Compare the price of carpet replacement and the price of regular cleanings and you will see the benefit in cleaning your carpet.

The last reason is for your health. Clean carpet is just healthier. Do you want your kids crawling around on dirty carpets? Of course not.

Do you have allergies? Carpet is like a giant air filter for your home. It traps dust and dirt and keeps it out of the air that we breath. This filter does need to be cleaned from time to time. Once it is full of soil it stops improving your air quality and starts hurting it.

4 Important Reasons to Clean Your Carpet

1. Health- Carpet cleaning removes dust, allergens and odor leaving indoor air clean and fresh.

2. Appearance- It just feels good when the carpet looks clean. No embarrassment if guests pop in.

3. Investment- Refresh, restore and extend the life of your expensive carpet.

4. Maintenance - Manufacturers recommend professional cleaning at least every 6 - 18 months.

Why we use Hot water extraction method

Aka: carpet steam cleaning

Although there is an industrial cleaning process that is in fact steam cleaning, in the context of carpet cleaning, "steam cleaning" is usually a misnomer for or mischaracterization of the hot water extraction cleaning method. The hot water extraction cleaning method uses equipment that sprays heated water (not steam), sometimes with added cleaning chemicals, on the carpet while simultaneously vacuuming the sprayed water along with any dislodged and dissolved dirt. Many carpet manufacturers recommend professional hot water extraction as the most effective carpet cleaning method. Actual steam could damage man-made carpet fibers or shrink natural fibers such as wool.

The primary advantage of the hot water extraction cleaning method is that effective cleaning is possible using only hot water, or hot water with very dilute detergent solutions. This avoids the problems associated with detergent residues that can remain in the carpet with other cleaning methods. Detergent residues on carpet fibers can attract dirt from the soles of shoes as people walk on a carpet, causing the carpet to become dirty again soon after cleaning.

Since the use of detergents and other chemicals is minimized or avoided altogether with the hot water extraction cleaning method, this method is advantageous for persons concerned about possible chemical exposure, especially for children crawling or playing on recently-cleaned carpets. This method also minimizes concerns about breathing volatile chemical compounds that might be used in other cleaning methods.

The primary disadvantage of the hot water extraction cleaning method is that 100% of the water used cannot be removed. If poor water extraction is achieved, in conditions of high humidity, mold growth could occur or be exacerbated. This is not usually a problem with high end commercial water extraction equipment

You can expect a nice fragrance because we use a pre spray that has both molecules that attract dirt and also a deodorizer.

Carpets will still be damp, not soaking, depending on the atmospheric conditions on the day. Sometimes you may encounter a “Shaggy Dog” smell the day after. This is because dust that may have been laying deep in the underlay has been extracted. A simple spray with air freshener held approx 30 cm above into the carpet will eliminate this
