There's nothing worse than a
musty and smelly or grubby carpet.
Professionals help by not only cleaning
carpets but reducing allergens in the
area. So, air quality and clean carpets
go hand-in-hand. But all too often pros,
who should know better, make carpet
cleaning mistakes that can absolutely
trash carpets and with them, your
business' reputation.
Over-wetting is out!
It takes experience to get the balance
just right. You want to get a deep
cleaning, but you don't want to get
the backing too wet because it will
take a long time to dry and can cause
discoloration. And just as sweaters can
shrink in the wash, so can carpets that
have been overwetted. Once this kind
of damage has occurred, replacing the
carpet is the only option.
Over-shampooing
Whatever agents you use when
cleaning carpets, you want to get all or
most of the residue out. The residue
actually sticks dirt to the fibers, so the
carpet becomes an absolute magnet for
dirt. Cleaning it out is difficult and can
even be near impossible.
