Carpets are a great way to add warmth and color to your home. Unfortunately, they also collect dirt, dust and grime. Regular carpet cleaning is one of the best ways to keep your carpets looking their best.
Carpet cleaning is an important part of home maintenance because it helps prevent damage caused by dirt build-up. Over time, dirt and germs can accumulate in the fibers of your carpeting, which can lead to discoloration and permanent stains if not cleaned regularly.
Carpet Cleaning Methods
There are two main types of carpet cleaning methods: hot water extraction (HWE) and dry foam cleaning. Hot water extraction uses hot water, detergent and vacuum suction to remove dirt from deep within the carpet’s recesses. The steam loosens debris so it can be rinsed away using a high-powered vacuum with a rotating brush attachment. Dry foam cleaners are applied directly onto the surface of your carpet using a spray bottle or aerosol canister; they then penetrate deeply into the fibers where they dissolve any soil or stains present before being vacuumed up again.
Carpet Stain Removal
Stains like food, drink, mud etc are usually removed by applying an appropriate stain remover solution directly onto them and scrubbing them in order to remove the stains.
