• <div><p>A carpet cleaner uses steam to penetrate the fibers of your carpet and remove dirt, while a carpet shampooer uses a detergent to clean the carpet’s surface.

Q: How do you tell if a carpet has been professionally cleaned?

• <div><p>Looking clean is only half the battle. A professionally cleaned carpet should feel soft and fluffy, i.e., not caked down with dirt or matted from excess cleaning product. It will not have any unpleasant odors, since carpet cleaners go deep enough to eliminate the most sunk-in smells. It should also be free of stains or discoloration from heavy foot traffic. Keep in mind that, in some cases, your cleaner may not be able to remove every stain.</p></div>

Q: Why does my carpet turn brown after cleaning?

• <div><p>Carpets can turn brown after cleaning due to a phenomenon called &quot;wicking.&quot; It occurs when deep-seated dirt and moisture rise to the surface as the carpet dries because of excessive water or improper rinsing. Additionally, not allowing the carpet to dry thoroughly before walking on it can lead to browning. </p></div>

Q: What is steam cleaning, and how much does it cost?

• <div><p>Steam cleaning your furniture is a popular method used by most professional services. It calls for special equipment that uses steam and suction to pull dirt, dust, pet hair, pet dander, and other debris out of upholstery and other materials. It&rsquo;s a great way to get out stains and messes gently without risking damage to the fabric. It is covered by the professional furniture upholstery cleaner&rsquo;s rate average of <b>$150 to $250</b>.</p></div>

Q: How often should rugs be professionally cleaned?

• <div><p>If you choose to have a professional clean your rug, you should schedule a visit every 12 to 18 months. Higher-traffic areas like an entryway should be cleaned more frequently, but a seldom-used guest room can go for more than 18 months without a professional cleaning. Discuss your rugs with your cleaning pro to get an idea of your home's particulars.</p></div>
