"Shari and her crew Kathy, Lexi, and Michelle were on time and the work that was done was top notch. They took an old filthy stove and made it sparkling clean The job was an apartment clean out after client left. There was evidence of a cat pee smell but Shari cleaned and shampooed the carpeting and it now is clean and fresh. I would recommend their service to snyone"

Carpet Cleaning questions, answered by experts

It takes 24 to 72 hours for water to evaporate out of the carpet if you use a wet vac and towels to soak up the majority of the moisture and then run blower fans and dehumidifiers to speed up the evaporation process. The total length of time for the water to evaporate out of the carpet depends on how wet the carpet is, the type of carpet, and the thickness of the carpet.

You’ll need to decide which cleaning treatments and methods are the right fit for your rug. Depending on the rug material, age, and the amount of traffic it gets, different treatments to consider include:

  • Stain removal: $10–$50 per stain

  • Anti-odor treatment: $15–$75 per rug

  • Stain protection: $1.50–$2.50 per square foot

  • Moth protection: $1–$2 per square foot

  • Wool treatment: $1–$2 per square foot

  • Antimicrobial disinfectant: $2–$3 per square foot

The formula for neutralizing skunk smell is one quart of 3% hydrogen peroxide, ¼ cup baking soda, and one to two teaspoons of dish soap. The University of Nebraska says a chemist discovered that this mixture changes the thiols, the chemical compound that causes the odor, into acids that don’t carry a skunk smell, thus eliminating the odor.

Steam cleaning is generally considered better than shampooing for deep cleaning carpets. Also known as hot water extraction, steam cleaning uses heat to penetrate deep into the carpet fibers, effectively removing dirt, allergens, and bacteria without leaving behind a sticky residue. This method also tends to cause less wear on your carpet over time and leaves the fibers feeling softer. While a steamer can be more expensive, the cost is often justified by the longevity of your carpet. Shampooing may be a suitable option for quickly fixing odors or cleaning minor surface stains. However, it can leave behind a soapy film that attracts more dirt, defeating the purpose of the cleaning. The best choice depends on your needs; for a thorough, deep clean, steam is the superior option, while shampooing can handle light, surface-level dirt.

Whether you tip before or after a carpet cleaning depends on when you’re available. If you’re home when they finish up, you can give them their tip after. However, if you need to leave before they’re done or if you won’t be home at all, you can prepare the tip beforehand and leave it for them in an envelope.
