Answers To Frequently Asked Questions About Professional Carpet CleaningSome first-time homeowners are reluctant to contact a professional carpet cleaner because they don't know what to expect. Studying the answers to these frequently asked questions about professional carpet cleaning will take the mystery out of carpet cleaning for you. How Much Will It Cost? Prices vary depending on the size of the rooms to be cleaned, the amount of the furniture to be moved, etc. Generally speaking, cleaning a living area or family room will cost between $100 to $200, with additional costs for hallways, bedrooms, and other rooms. What Method Should Be Used? A hot water professional carpet cleaning system will guarantee the best results for your home. If for some reason you are in a hurry and don't have time for a water cleaning to dry, you can use a dry extraction method (known as the Chem-Dry method) to hasten the process. Will I Have To Move My Furniture? The professional carpet cleaning company will move large pieces of furniture for you. You should make sure that the furniture to be moved will fit through doorways (i.e., will not have to be disassembled) and that you have an empty room or sunny back yard for the furniture to sit in while the carpet is being cleaned and is drying. You should also remove incidental items, like books from bookcases and knick-knacks from coffe tables, so the furniture can easily be moved without damaging these things. Oftentimes a home will be cleaned in two phases to allow for furniture to be moved from room to room and back again before the next phase begins. How Often Should Carpets Be Cleaned? According to carpet manufacturers, carpets should be cleaned every 12 to 24 months. And think about it: even if you have a super high-strength, deep-cleaning vacuum cleaner like a Dyson, isn't it gross to think about walking around on two-year-old dirt that the vacuum cleaner has missed, or that has dried on the surface of the carpet? Every 12 months is the maximum I would recommend you go between carpet cleanings. Will Professional Carpet Cleaning Remove Pet Odors? In most cases, pet odors will be removed by professional carpet cleaning. Where pet urine has seeped through the carpet into the carpet pad, floor, and subfloor, each layer of odor needs to be addressed. Only a professional carpet cleaner can accomplish this. |
