Professional Versus Do-It-Yourself Carpet Cleaning

Published on Thursday, 17 December 2009


Carpets do not require professional cleaning on a weekly basis. Often times, cleaning companies would advise you to send the carpets every year. Despite frequent vacuuming at home, you still need to have them professionally cleaned by a trusted service company. The latter not only extends the life of your carpets but contributes to reducing allergens, achieving better air quality, and eliminating pollutants that cause various types of diseases.
 
Do-It-Yourself Cleaning and the Damage it Causes
 
Many people alternate between do-it-yourself and professional carpet cleaning. Although carpets should be maintained by experienced workers, many people choose to clean them in their homes to save expenses. Whilst the latter is far less pricey, they are never as effective as hiring professionals to do the job. Usually, novice cleaners also damage the carpet as they are not knowledgeable of the ways to properly maintain the carpet.
 
Three most common damages incurred by self-carpet cleaners include the following:
 
- Over wetting
- Over shampooing
- Failing to shelter the wet carpet from home furnishings
 
The soapy residue from over-shampooing is almost impossible to clean out. This is also accountable for making the carpet a filth magnet. Over wetting, on the other hand, occurs when too much water accumulates into the carpet fibers. As a result, the carpet will shrivel, making the rug separate from the floor. Once the pad and backing get wet, the carpet becomes high risk for mold and mildew problems.
 
Do it the Professional Way
 
Professional carpet cleaning allows better drying of the carpet. Since these establishments have the proper tools and equipment, they are able to take excellent care of our carpets.
 
They are also equipped with a well-structured plan that has been tested and proven to work efficiently on carpets. Although they're a tad costly compared to do-it-yourself cleaning, it is considered the finest way to maintain the quality of your carpets.
