"Had a couple of stains from kids and pets that I weren’t sure were going to come out. Happy Lion Cleaning was friendly, fairly priced, and did a great job at making my carpets look like the day they were installed. I will definitely call Happy Lion again."
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 should clean your suede couch at least once a month, which includes vacuuming and small spot cleaning to remove any stains. Try to do a deeper steam cleaning only once a year, unless your couch is in a high traffic area, in which case it may need more frequent deeper cleans.
You can use rug shampoo on an oriental rug, but you need to make sure you use a natural, non-abrasive shampoo. While other carpets made from synthetic fiber can stand up to harsh chemicals, the natural material—sheep’s wool, cotton, silk, or camel hair—that goes into an oriental rug will break down and get damaged if they come in contact with traditional rug shampoos. In many cases, it’s best to let a professional assess your carpet and determine which gentle shampoo would be most appropriate.
To prepare for mattress cleaning, clear the area around the mattress or move it to a different area so you or your hired specialist has ample space to clean thoroughly. This may involve moving furniture and any fragile décor items. Remove all bedding from the mattress. If possible, schedule your cleaning on a sunny day with low humidity to help speed up the drying process.
