"This company did a fantastic job! They worked with me on my schedule and were very professional. The carpets looked amazing and more than met my expectations. A few days later, my dog had an "accident" and they were available and willing to come back and do a spot cleaning. I highly recommend this company."

Carpet Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Yes, vinegar is a popular DIY carpet stain remover that can get ink out of carpeting. Try saturating the ink stain with undiluted vinegar and blotting it until the stain is lifted. If this doesn’t work, try rubbing alcohol as a plan B.

Yes, hydrogen peroxide can actively remove stains from carpets. Just avoid using anything more than a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution. Anything more than 6% could bleach your carpet.

While they both help to penetrate tough fibers and have similar designs, there is a difference between an upholstery cleaner and a carpet cleaner. Carpet cleaners are much tougher on stains and use much more concentrated solutions, while upholstery cleaners are a bit softer on fabrics and use lighter solutions. While an upholstery cleaner may work on a carpet, your carpet cleaner might be too rough on your upholstered furniture.

The best cleaner to remove soot depends on the surface material and the type of fire, but consider dish soaps or degreasers, baking soda, rubbing alcohol, and hydrogen. Low-oxygen fires often leave behind greasy soot, which is best removed with dish soaps or degreasers. Baking soda can be useful for absorbing soot deposits from carpets, followed by rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide to clean the set-in stains.

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.
