Typically, we recommend cleaning your carpets every six months to one year, depending on the type of carpet and how much traffic it sees. Most carpet warranties also require professional cleaning about once annually to remain valid. However, if you have pets or children, you should consider cleaning high traffic areas more frequently. Spills and deep stains should be cleaned immediately because the longer they sit, the tougher they are to get out.

Each tenant will be required to have the carpets professionally cleaned when they vacate the property. To ensure that the carpets have been cleaned as well as possible, we require that your tenants hire professional carpet cleaners. To further ensure that the quality of the work, and to ensure the carpet cleaners will guarantee their work if problems are discovered after the next tenants move in, we require the tenants use only approved carpet cleaning companies.

Vacuum regularly with a HEPA filtered vacuum cleaner. Clean entranceways more often. Always clean up spills immediately. Have a fiber protecting topical treatment applied by a professional. This really depends on what is causing the odor. Some odors such as animal, mildew, and smoke odors require specific odor treatments. Other areas such as walls may have to be cleaned also. Removing the source of the odor and thorough cleaning is the first step.

The best answer is “It Depends.” It depends on fabric, construction, use, even how much cooking is done in the home. A good rule of thumb for pieces used regularly is every 12-18 months. Since upholstery fabrics are more delicate than carpet, mild soiling conditions can leave permanent discoloration. If there is visible soiling, act quickly and have it cleaned as soon as possible.

At the moment we don't clean upholstery because our preferred operative is not available to do so. We will however be offering this option very soon. Giving you more great value on your cleaning costs!

Carpets should be professionally cleaned every 6-12 months. Cleaning more often will not affect your carpet life; in fact it can extend the carpet's life.

This depends on what level of service you receive. If you are after a quick, cheap service where only a 1 stage process will be used, some companies quote as low as $5.00 per room. If you own your carpet and require a high standard of service, where there may be a 4 or 6 stage process, you can expect to pay between $25.00 and $35.00 per room.

When cleaned and maintained correctly carpet life is considerably extended. Carpets these days are designed to hide dirt particles deep in the pile, so even if your carpet does not appear to be particularly dirty it's the unseen soils, bacteria and allergens that cause the real damage to both your carpet and to you and your families personal health. Makers of quality stain protected carpets recommend professional cleaning to Australian Standards 3733 every 12 to 18 months depending on use.

We recommend vacuuming frequently, especially high traffic areas. Vacuuming removes dirt particles which cut your fibers and cause carpet to look worn out. Every 2 years or whenever your carpet looks a little shabby or dirty, get a professional to deep steam clean your carpet. Never rent a shampooer because they simply leave too much soap in your carpets after cleaning. We recommend Brandon’s Carpet Cleaning; you can reach them at 410-686-5480

No. Ideally, if a person can be there just to let our technician in and get started, then go about their errands, etc. A key can also be left under the mat, and the job pre-paid with any major credit card.

Let's compare traditional hot water extraction machines to vapor steam cleaning. The "steam cleaners", you may be familiar with or seen used by a rug cleaning service are all based on water extraction. The ones that are truck mounted, can cost up to $30,000! Home based systems are only a few hundred dollars and their performance is more often than not congruent with their price. Low price equals low performance.

Vapor steam cleaning does not clean everything and in fact there are some materials/surfaces to avoid. These are very heat sensitive materials such as some silks clothing and Persian rugs, velour and the exterior paint-work of your car. We have also found that it may also take the shine off some [not all] vinyl flooring. Otherwise, the list of tasks that may be tackled by vapor steam cleaning is a long one.

The water is put into a special boiler. The better grade vapor steam cleaning systems allow for continuous refill of water without allowing the system to cool down between fills. The less expensive vapor steam systems have a heat sensitive safety cap which does not allow you to refill the system until it has cooled down. These boilers fast heat the water, which is discharged as "dry steam" which contains 6% water.

Surprisingly, vapor steam cleaners operate at low pressures usually 50 to 60 psi. The better machines allow you to vary the pressure and regulate the steam, as more delicate tasks need less pressure. A nice feature is fingertip controls of the steam pressure. The low pressure feature is important in getting the job done without making a mess and spraying particulates all over the place. This was a big criticism we had of cheaper units- they seemed to create as much mess as they cleaned.

Yes We Do! We pre extract the fabric, dry solvent clean the material & apply a fabric guard, so there is no shrinkage, color loss or puckering all at no additional charge.

A professional carpet cleaner should carry both dry and steam cleaning systems in the vehicle and after inspecting your carpet should be able to advise you on which system is best going to clean your carpet. Unfortunately most carpet cleaning companies only offer you one system on its own. You will also find that companies that only offer the one system will degrade the other system that they do not carry. Why do some carpet cleaners advertise extremely low prices (as low as $5.
