Tips on Finding Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
It's time to start taking carpet cleaning seriously. You might think that all your carpets need is vacuuming and an occasional airing outside, but the truth is that they need much more than that. Carpets are quite vulnerable to their surroundings and can quickly gather dust, mold, pests, stains, and spots. If you don't get them cleaned professionally once in while (besides routinely cleaning them on your own), they are prone to losing their color and luster, and may even pose a health hazard.
To do that, you will need to find a company that provides professional carpet cleaning services or professional deep carpet cleaning. But since there are so many carpet cleaning companies, how does one find a company which is professional and reliable, located nearby, has a pleasant and efficient customer service and offers reasonable prices? This might be a difficult task, so we've gathered some tips that will help you do it. Read on to understand how to find the best professional carpet cleaning companies!
1. Word of Mouth
We may be in the digital age and feel very advanced and sophisticated having machines, computers, and apps do everything for us, but sometimes resorting to the old-fashioned way of doing things is actually a good idea. So the first step you should take is simply asking around – friends, colleagues, relatives – whether they've recently used the services of a carpet cleaning company that they were happy with.
2. Google, Ratings, and Reviews
In the case that no one can give you a good recommendation about professional carpet cleaning services, it's time to ask Google. To find a local carpet cleaning company, common terms you can use are "carpet cleaning companies near me", "professional carpet cleaners near me ", "carpet cleaning services near me" and so on. Many of the results you'll get will have star ratings, which can serve as a preliminary indication for good companies. But it's best to read reviews clients have written about these services. You can find reviews on Yelp and other business indexes, as well as on Facebook (if the company you're interested in has a Facebook page).
3. Certification
Something you must keep in mind when choosing a carpet cleaning service is checking whether it has been certified by the IICRC. The IICRC, or the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification, is a certification for the cleaning, restoration and inspection industries. If a company has been certified by the IICRC, it means it has met its set of standards (which have to do with customer service and insurance) and had undergone its training.
4. Quality over price
Don't be blinded by very low fees. More often than not, they're an indication of unprofessional work. The job may be cheap but you'll pay a high price by hiring such a company. Obviously, you shouldn't take this as a recommendation to choose the priciest company you can find: only to consider whether the fees seem reasonable. As a rule of thumb, reputable carpet cleaning services offer prices that reflect the quality of their services.
Summary
We hope this little guide has helped you! The next time you'll be asking yourself: "Where do I find professional carpet cleaning near me?" or "I wonder if there are any good carpet cleaning services near me", you can start looking for an answer using this guide. Good luck!
Carpet Cleaning FAQ
- Do I need to vacuum before the you arrive?
Doing some vacuuming is recommended, but not necessary or required in order for us to do our job. Vacuuming, with our own equipment - a powerful machine - is part of our cleaning method. You only need to clean up the place a bit so we can get a round with no distractions.
- What is the preferred cleaning method?
We recommend and almost always use hot water extraction, also known as steam cleaning, for our wall to wall carpet cleaning services. It is the most modern, safe, natural and effective way we know to get the best results available. When we use it, our customers enjoy both the benefits of a non toxic cleaning process, and of a preservative and effective cleaning methods, that actually renew the carpet rather than wear it down with each clean. Other methods simply play around with the dirt, while we extract it completely. You can ask your cleaner to show you the dirty water after cleaning, so you can see for yourself how effective it was.
- what is the difference between truck mount and portable?
Truck mount is heavier equipment, used usually for commercial and industrial spaces, where extra force is needed. For residential customers, we use a portable steam cleaning machine - only professional top of the line models (not available for home rental) - which are easy to carry around, mobilize around the house and is highly effective with any type of wall to wall carpet.
- How soon will I be able to walk on my carpet again?
You may use the carpet lightly immediately after cleaning by wearing socks or house slippers, but they will get wet :). However, we recommend you do not walk on your carpet at all for a period of at least two hours after cleaning. Remember, walking on freshly cleaned carpet with bare feet may leave oil spots that will attract dirt and grime..
- How safe are your cleaning and protection methods?
We use only the safest, most effective technology to assure not only your satisfaction, but your safety as well. We do not use any chemicals, or leave any irritant residues.We use only biodegradable, non toxic and green cleaning products in our cleaning process. It goes right along with our motto of being safe & effective. Keep in mind that completely organic cleaning on a fabric is only achieved by using plain water, or vinegar mixed with hot water. We of course provide our customers with the choice that suits them best.
- How long will it take for my carpet to dry?
Normal drying time ranges from 3-6 hours, depending on the humidity level in the air, air movement and room temperature.
- I've heard it's best to put off having your carpet cleaned as long as possible, is this true?
No. In fact, many of the major carpet mills today recommend professional cleaning at least once every 6-8 months. Our steam cleaning method (portable machine, not truck mount, which is why we recommended using portable) does not damage the carpet, unlike different methods . The build-up of soil in your carpet, combined with foot traffic, creates an abrasion that breaks down your carpet's fibers. The higher the traffic in a given area, the more often the carpet will need cleaning.
- Can you remove a pet odor from my carpet?
Pet odor is a very common problem that often turns out to be much more complex than initially thought. First we start with the surface damage, but pet urine can easily soak through the backing of the carpet into the padding underneath or even deeper than that, which would cost more. In more severe cases, the urine can penetrate into the sub-floor beneath the padding. This creates a more complicated problem, because the urine provides for the growth of bacteria. This, in turn, worsens of the odor problem and can contribute to permanent color loss of carpet fibers. To eliminate this problem, the urine must be removed or neutralized from each of the layers affected. If the contamination is limited to only the face yarn of the carpet, then the cleaning itself may effectively remove the odor. In more severe cases, a urine neutralizer - with a special enzyme cleaner - may be applied. In the most severe of cases, replacement of the carpet padding, and treatment of the under-side of the carpet and sub-floor may be required.
- Do you move furniture, and if you do, does it come with an additional cost?
We do not charge extra for moving your furniture. If needed, our technicians will move - carefully - the furniture and return it right to its place after the cleaning is finished. It is possible that some heavier and less moveable items such as pianos, cabinets and so on, will stay in its place during the cleaning process while work around it (causing no damage whatsoever, of course). .
