Carpet, Tile, and Rug Cleaning Tips In Jefferson City Missouri

Okay, this isn’t my biggest recommendation.  The best idea is to use a wet vac to extract the urine before even doing any spot removal.  But I realize many homeowners are either going to be too lazy to get out the wet vac or spot removal machine.  Or, they may have never gotten around to buying one.

So it’s inevitable people will still use paper towels.  If you do use paper towels to remove urine, follow these tips.

First, put a stack of paper towels on the urine spot.

Second, put a heavy non-porous object on top of the paper towels.

Third, allow this to sit to 1-2 hours. 

Fourth, check to see if all the urine was extracted into the towels.  If not, repeat the process.

That’s it.  It does often require repeat steps.  If you don’t repeat the steps, you’ll have urine left in the backing or padding.

When finished, use a good enzyme.  Call our office at 632-4400/796-4139 for a great enzyme product.

If you’ve ever read any of the coupon mailers, you’ve seen the cheap carpet cleaning offers for whole house carpet cleaning at around $70 for the whole house.  But what you don’t realize is many of these companies never intend on doing a professional cleaning for that price.

Instead, they bait you with a low price and switch a higher price when they get in your home.  They say that since your carpet is dirty, you’ll need an extra special cleaning.  Don’t fall for it.  Chances are, they won’t give you a professional cleaning even if you pay their higher price.

You get what you pay for.  We never bait and switch and back our work with a 100% guarantee. 

Candle wax is the most common type of wax to be spilled on carpet, and one of the most difficult waxes to remove due to the high heat and coloring of the wax during the spill.

Other types of waxes that can find their way into textiles include those used in polishes, cosmetics, hobbies, cooking and more — but these are usually easy to remove with extraction and dry solvents.

Customers may think that the removal of candle wax should be easy… and at times removing the visible wax is easy, but there often are residues and colors left behind that make the job much more difficult than originally anticipated.

Understand wax before cleaning

Wax can come from many sources, such as from beehives, petroleum products, plants, animals, etc.

Most waxes used in candles come from petroleum by-products, commonly referred to as paraffin wax. It typically melts slow and allows the user to enjoy a burning candle for hours, if not days.

In order to appreciate how wax can bind with fibers, think of the characteristics of fibers.

Olefin and polyester are oil loving fibers, and thus will tend to bond faster and stronger with anything petroleum based — like candle wax.

Although it may not be noticeable during cleaning, to some degree you will often find olefin and polyester somewhat more difficult to remove the “greasy” aspect of the candle wax, but at the same time, repelling the colors that can be in the wax.

Nylon may be more forgiving to the waxy part of the spill, but not as forgiving to the colors in the wax.

Wool is mostly a nightmare when it comes to removing wax, but it can be done.

Bottom line for cleanup of wax on carpet is call your carpet cleaner quickly and while they are on the way, keep the area slightly damp with hot water and a WHITE ONLY towel.

You walk in and out of your house dozens of times per day, tracking in soil. Your carpet acts as a filter to all the unhealthy oil, dust, pollen, and pollutants that you carry in on the bottom of your shoes. Plus, drink spills, food spills, and pet accidents add to the unhealthy status of your carpet. This filter (your carpet) needs to be cleaned regularly to keep your home healthy.

The EPA and carpet manufacturers recommend that you have your carpet cleaned every 6-12 months. Your carpet is a fabric. It needs regular cleaning to be kept clean and to stay looking beautiful.

When you call us to clean your carpet, we concentrate on three important health benefits for you:

1. First, the safest cleaning agents possible are used to pre-spot your carpet and break down oils. We use cleaning agents that are formulated specifically for chemically sensitive people.
2. Soil, pollen, and dust mite dander are broken down and bacteria is reduced with 180 degree water through our machine. The dirty water is extracted into a holding tank.
3. No mold or musty odors will grow because we’ll use turbo dryers or special tools to ensure your carpet dries fast. 
    

    If you have allergies to dust mites, we have an excellent anti-allergen treatment that neutralizes the der-1 allergen in your carpet, upholstery, or mattress. This treatment is applied after a thorough extraction and cleaning of the dust mite dander. For a limited time, try our Anti-Allergen dust mite treatment in one room FREE when you get your carpet cleaned.

Most people don’t know this, but carpet makers recommend annual cleaning.  You’ve probably heard the old wives tale that says, “Wait as long as you can to clean your carpet.” 

The reasons behind this is many homeowners would have their carpet cleaned and they would look uglier after cleaning.  This is still true today if your carpet is cleaned improperly. 

Many years ago, dry cleaning and shampooing were a primary method of cleaning.  As well, many companies would perform steam cleaning, but they would do it incorrectly. 

Any method of carpet cleaning done improperly WILL DAMAGE YOUR CARPET and cause resoiling.  It’s not the method that’s important, it’s the technician who is cleaning your carpet.

If you pulled some poor unsuspecting soul off the street and gave him brand new, state-of-the-art cleaning machine, he would make a mess out of your carpet.  Unfortunately, that is what many carpet cleaning companies do.

The education and experience is as important as the method being used.  Yes, carpet makers recommend yearly cleaning.  But they also recommend you have it done by certified, trained technicians.

And here’s a tip…the company with a great reputation, education, and experience isn’t going to charge you $99 for the whole house or $19.95 per room.  Sorry.  But you do get what you pay for.
