"When Tom showed me how much dirt his machine removed from our carpets, I couldn t believe it. We chose the Chem-Dry service because we didn t want harmful chemicals in our house. We couldn t be happier with Tom s work or the results. He was also courteous and professional throughout the process."

Carpet Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can effectively clean and sanitize carpets, especially if you use an industrial vacuum with high-quality filters. Most pros will precondition the carpet and agitate the preconditioning solution for ultimate effectiveness. In some cases, even after thoroughly cleaning, you may notice that the carpet cleaning water still looks dirty. In that case, there may be embedded dirt or you may have mold in the padding.

The best tools and solutions for getting stains out of a carpet depend on the type of carpet. Heavier and more durable materials like wool can withstand steam cleaning, while more delicate materials like jute may get damaged. In those cases, it’s best to immediately address the stain using a mixture of water, vinegar, and baking soda or use a commercial stain remover that’s safe for your carpet. In many cases, the best way to remove a stubborn stain and avoid damage in the process is to call in a professional floor cleaner for assistance.

How you freshen a musty carpet depends on what’s causing it to smell funky. Baking soda can soak up some smells, and vinegar is a natural deodorizer. These DIY solutions can lift out light odors. However, steam cleaning or hot water extraction may be the best way to clean your carpet when the smell is deeply ingrained. These penetrate deep into carpet fibers and can remove musty mold spores and pet urine smells.

Vomit contains organic fluids along with whatever else comes out with it. When left without cleaning, vomit, and its odor can reach deep into carpet fibers and become very difficult to remove without a deep cleaning. In some cases, the combination can cause permanent carpet staining.  

To prepare your upholstery for steam cleaning, start by vacuuming it clean. Pretreat any stains with a professional stain fighter or your own solution of dish soap and water. Pre-condition the fabric with the products of your choice, and be sure to include a shampoo if the fabric allows for shampooing. Start steam cleaning your couch or other piece of furniture with the cushions, then tackle the rest of the chair. Make sure you leave plenty of time to let it dry.
