What Cleaning Method is Best?

Steam Cleaning vs. Dry Cleaning

What Are The Differences and Reasons Why Your Carpets Re-Soil After Dry Cleaning?

Have you ever had your carpets cleaned and your carpet re-soiled within a few short weeks? It may have looked good when it was finished, but it seemed to get dirty (especially in the traffic areas) quicker and worse then it did before you had it cleaned. Dry Chemical Cleaners, use equipment that does not rinse the carpet at all! This method only cleans the surface of the carpet. Your carpet dries feeling stiff because there is soap left in every fiber of your carpet. The soap attracts dirt, due to its sticky residue.

Here’s one reason why Supreme Clean uses hot water extraction. Shaw Industries (the worlds largest carpet manufacturer) recommends steam extraction. Why? It is the only method that will thoroughly rinse out detergents & water-soluble soils. Another major benefit is, this method also rinses out allergy causing dust mites, cigarette smoke, pet dander and more! So our method of cleaning will definitely help our clients who suffer from allergies!

How Often Should You Have Your Carpet Cleaned?

Did you know that your carpet manufacturer would not honor your warranty, if you don’t have your carpets cleaned at least once every 12 to 18 months? They go on to say that main traffic areas need to be cleaned more often! It makes sense that home with children need carpets cleaned even more often. Pet owners certainly need carpet cleaning most often. We generally recommend cleaning around your furniture every 6 months as a rule.

So when you hear different Carpet Cleaners say they have the best or they use the best etc. etc…. Now you know what the manufacturer recommends.
