Professional Carpet Cleaning Vs. Doing it Yourself

Carpet cleaning is mandatory to maintain and freshen up your home. This task can be dismaying and can take an immense amount of energy to complete depending on how much carpet is throughout your home.

Nylon carpets become flat and dirty from traffic throughout your home. When you clean nylon carpets you raise the fibers back up and give the carpet a fresh appearance. The main treatment of carpet cleaning suggested by carpet manufacturers is steam cleaning. Steam cleaning involves hot water being put onto the carpet and sucked back into the system with whatever dirt or grime that was present. A cleaning solution is typically mixed in with the water to help eliminate stains.   

 

Professional cleaners have portable machines to bring into your home, apartment, or condominium. Steamatic uses hot water mixed with an emulsifying agent to break down dirt. This solution is pushed deep into the carpet fibers and drawn back in to guarantee a fresh and clean appearance for your carpet.

 

The advantages of using hot water are:

  • It effectively dissolves dirt
  • Lifts stains
  • Leaves no stain outlines or water damage
  • Breaks down bacteria
  • Allows for your carpet to dry quickly 

 

Vacuuming on a regular basis and carpet cleaning will decrease the amount of dirt and pollutants in your home. By using professional cleaners you will notice a significant upgrade in the way your carpets look and smell. 

 

Attempting to carpet clean on your own leaves you with options. You can rent a steam clean machine or buy one. These machines can be complex and have various factors involved such as the temperature of the water, amount of cleaner needed, and technique. Professional machines heat the water faster and more effectively. This gives your home the results you’re seeking. Using a steam clean machine yourself can leave wet carpets which require fans to be turned on until its dry. Wet carpets are an indication that the steam cleaner was not powerful enough to do an efficient job. 

 

For long lasting results, professional carpet cleaning is the way to go. Even if cost savings are a concern, having Steamatic come to clean the high traffic areas is affordable and effective.
