Moisture does not penetrate the backing of the carpet although the process does rinse the carpet deep down. We use powerful equipment for the deepest clean possible so in the end your carpet is thoroughly rinsed, but left only damp to the touch.

Can you remove pet odors from my carpets?

We deal with removing pet odors all the time and realise it is a very common problem in most households. We deal with a lot of cases of pet odors that become much deeper then they initially appear. Pet urine can easily soak through the backing of your carpet and into the padding underneath. At times it can be even more severe when the urine penetrates into the sub-floor beneath the padding. We call this a multi-layered problem. Depending on how long the urine has been in your carpet sometimes it starts to grow bacteria worsening the odors and damaging your carpets colour and fiber. In these cases we do out best to neutralise and remove the urine from each effected layer. If it is too deep we may have to replace the carpet however we can not guarantee removal of the odors but we can do out best to fix your pet odors problem. It is very important that you don't leave your problem untreated because it can be harmful to your health.

Ask the seller if he/she can guarantee you that the carpet you purchase will not shrink during cleaning, that the colour is fast and will not run or fade and that the fibers are of the highest quality. Carpets manufactured from natural fibbers are usually more durable than synthetics.

I wish to lay down wall-to-wall carpets, but am afraid of high maintenance costs. Should this concern me?

The cleaning will help preserve your carpet and is always a better idea for long term results.

How often should carpets be professionally cleaned?

All residential carpets should be professionally cleaned a minimum of every 12 to 18 months AND as soon as possible after the carpet has been heavily soiled or stained. Prompt attention by a professional will provide the correct treatment and best results.

Will carpet cleaning destroy the stain-resist treatment?

No. It is not necessary to reapply the stain-resist treatment after every carpet cleaning service, depending on how frequently the carpet is cleaned.
Foot traffic can destroy some stain-resist treatments. Therefore, those treatments should be reapplied after every 2nd or 3rd carpet cleaning service. Carpet that is only cleaned each every 12 to 18 months may require treatment at that time.

No. Hot water extraction is the method preferred by many leading carpet manufacturers. It is considered by many to be the best method of removing embedded soil and other contaminants

Can the carpet be walked on right after it has been cleaned?

Yes. We use powerful equipment that extracts the majority of the water immediately from the carpet fibres. The surfaces below the fibres should not get damp. In most cases, the carpet should be completely dry within 2 to 6 hours (depending on the humidity and air flow).

Is it possible to clean carpets too often?

No. Frequent cleaning of the carpet will help keep maintain its original appearance.

It is recommended that high-traffic areas (doorways, hallways, etc) and areas of heavy-soiling (near kitchen, dining room, rumpus room, etc) are cleaned more frequently than the other areas.

Between professional carpet cleaning services remember to vacuum at least weekly with a good quality vacuum in proper working order. Allowing dry soils to accumulate in the carpet pile causes permanent fibre damage, resulting in a dirty and dull appearance.

Dust mites live on dead skin and require warm, damp conditions to survive. They are rarely found in dry carpet.
