Caring for your Carpet

While vacuuming is sufficient to remove most dry soil, the oily soil which comes from cooking vapors, air pollution, and tracked-in dirt from outside presents a different type of problem. The particles of oily soil deposited on carpet fibers can cause gradual but significant dulling of delicate pastel colors; the color isn't lost but is hidden under the film. If this type of soil is allowed to accumulate, it literally glues the pile fibers together and begins to attract and hold the dry soil. This is the reason that cleaning is so important when dulling of color is first noticed; if allowed to remain too long, it becomes gummy and difficult to remove.

If carpet is cleaned before it becomes too unsightly, the cleaning chore will be easier and more successful. It is a myth that cleaning the carpet before it is absolutely necessary will cause it to get dirty faster. However, choice of the proper cleaning system is important, in that some systems may leave residues which promote resoiling and defeat the whole purpose of cleaning.

We use the hot water extraction system, which research indicates provides the best capability for cleaning. This system is commonly refered to as "steam cleaning," although no steam is actually generated.

The process consists of spraying, under pressure, a solution of water and detergent in to the pile and recovering the water and soil with a powerful vacuum into a holding tank. This can be done from our truck mounted unit outside the home with only the hose and wand brought inside, or where a truck mounted unit cannot reach, by a portable, self contained system brought into your home.
