Will you remove all my stains?

Let me start by defining the difference between a spot and a stain: a spot is any foreign material (soil, liquid, etc.) that is removable by standard cleaning methods.The foreign material is on, or around the carpet fiber a stain is foreign material (soil, liquid, etc.) on carpet that is not usually removable by standard cleaning methods. The foreign material has penetrated ‘soaked into’ the fiber and has changed or damaged the fiber itself. Some stains may be very difficult or impossible to remove.

Does cleaning your carpet make it wear out faster?

No, actually dirt acts as an abrasive when trapped in your carpet or fabrics and should be removed to reduce wear.

Does your process restore the original feel of my carpet?

Yes, our process leaves your carpet fresh, clean, residue free and soft to the touch.

Should I have a fabric protector applied after cleaning?

Yes, most carpet manufacturers recommend that you have a protector applied after professional cleaning to restore the original stain resistance. Some manufacturers even require it as part of the warranty on the carpet.

My carpet is really old, should I replace it?

With the cost of replacing carpet being as expensive as it is today, it is always best to try having the carpet professionally cleaned first. It is far less costly and may make a world of difference.

Which provides better indoor air quality: hardwood, or carpet?

Carpet actually acts like a ‘filter’ trapping pollutants which are then removed by professional carpet cleaning. As long as a regular cleaning schedule is maintained, carpet provides much better indoor air quality than hardwood.
