Carpets and Upholstery Cleaning
Carpet cleaning is an essential practice for maintaining a clean and healthy indoor environment. Over time, carpets accumulate dirt, dust, allergens, and stains, which can pose health risks and diminish the aesthetic appeal of the space. Professional carpet cleaning involves the use of specialized equipment and cleaning agents to effectively remove these contaminants.
The process typically starts with vacuuming to eliminate loose dirt and debris. Then, a pre-treatment solution is applied to break down stains and soils embedded in the carpet fibers. This is followed by hot water extraction or steam cleaning, which involves spraying hot water mixed with cleaning solutions onto the carpet and then extracting it along with the dirt and grime. Alternatively, dry cleaning methods may be used, utilizing specialized cleaning compounds or foam to lift and remove soil.
Regular carpet cleaning not only enhances the appearance of the carpet but also extends its lifespan. Moreover, it contributes to a healthier indoor environment by reducing allergens and bacteria. It's advisable to schedule professional carpet cleaning at least once or twice a year, depending on foot traffic and specific needs, to maintain a clean and fresh living or working space.

Professional Cleaning
Our professional cleaning can address moderate and heavy soil conditions in your carpets. How often you’ll need professional cleaning depends on soil build-up, traffic, type and color of carpeting. A good rule of thumb would be to professionally clean your carpet every 12 months. The best advice is to clean carpets before they become totally saturated with soil. If you wait until carpets look really dirty, the carpets may never be restored to their former appearance. Dirt builds up in layers, and when a carpet looks dirty you are only seeing the dirt at the tips of the fibers. More dirt is hiding below the surface down near the base of the pile, causing damage to the carpet. When a carpet is saturated with dirt, the soil has penetrated crevices and has become firmly lodged.
