The Importance of Regular, Professional Carpet
Cleaning
Many homeowners make the mistake of assuming their
carpet and upholstery are clean just because they look clean. What
they may not know is that, over time, even the most spotless looking
carpets and upholstery collect germs, dust and soil below the surface.
To increase the useful life of your carpets and upholstery, most
carpet manufacturers recommend you have them cleaned regularly every
12-18 months and that could be before you even recognize they're
dirty.
Why choose a professional service over do-it-yourself?
Some homeowners may choose to clean their own
carpets and upholstery with either a heavy-duty vacuum, home steam
cleaners or other portable cleaning units. These options, however,
may not have the power necessary to remove deeply imbedded soil,
dust, spots, pet odors, and they may lack proper water extraction.
Furthermore, portable units that use water may not achieve the temperature
needed to properly care for your carpets and upholstery. The best
alternative is to hire a professional carpet cleaning company that
uses truck-mounted equipment and hot water extraction to remove
the deep down dirt.
