Get matched with top carpet cleaners in Quinter, KS

Spring and fall are the best seasons to clean your carpet because of the mud and leaves that tend to get tracked into the house. However, cleaning your carpet during the summer can be convenient as you can open your windows to allow the carpet to dry naturally rather than running the HVAC system.

The best way to deep clean a carpet yourself is to buy or rent a carpet steam cleaner. First, spot-clean the carpet to pre-treat any stains, then vacuum to remove any lingering dirt or debris. Next, use the carpet cleaner across the room, repeating as needed for heavily soiled areas. Let the carpet dry thoroughly before walking on it—this could take a full day, depending on your home’s humidity level and air circulation.

While you don’t have to move everything out of a room for a carpet cleaning, doing so will reveal hidden dirt and allow for a more thorough cleaning. However, for heavy or rarely used areas under furniture, cleaning around the pieces can be enough. Professional cleaners often work around large items or move furniture as needed.

You can use baking soda to start getting the urine odor out of your mattress. Baking soda is highly absorbent and soaks up odors, so it will not only draw the urine out of your mattress but it can also get to work fighting the lingering smell. You can also use an enzymatic cleaner to break down the urine to make it easier to clean. Just keep in mind that you need to remove enzymatic cleaners from the mattress after use, as leaving them on could be dangerous.
