How Commercial Carpet Cleaning Works

Once you have pets and young infants in your home you have to take special care to clean up after them. Pets are notorious for shedding dander and bringing microbes and pests into your home. The carpets in your home are especially susceptible to pick up dust, dander, allergens, microbes, mould and mildew and pathogenic bacteria. They must be regularly vacuumed to remove surface dust and allergens. But vacuuming doesn’t always remove the smallest spores and residues, stains and mildew. You probably spend hundreds of pounds a year on cleaning products and detergents to keep your surroundings dirt and germ free. Even then, your efforts may not be enough to keep your home surroundings healthy for you and your family. Occasional professional carpet cleaning does help in removing stubborn stains, and deodorizing and sanitising your rugs and carpets. Rugs made from silk, wool and other natural fibres are very delicate and should be cleaned only by experts. Commercial spaces need professional carpet cleaning once in a while to maintain the professional appearance of the facility.

Modern techniques used by professional carpet cleaners are to be practised for large-scale cleaning jobs that must be done in very short time periods. Hotels and hospitality services need fast and comprehensive carpet cleaning done in a jiffy. Some of the professional techniques include:

1. Dual process method: Effective for heavily soiled areas, the dual process produces good results in hours. The professionals will prepare the carpet by pre-spotting and conditioning the soiled and stained areas. Edges and corners are hand cleaned. The carpet is then shampooed with dry fast foam. Hot water extraction follows. The carpet would remain damp for another 4-8 hours after the procedure.

2. Dry Crystal method: When you want advanced deep cleaning to the base, dry crystal method is recommended. The process extracts, cleans and dries within 1-3 hours. The short drying time makes it ideal for commercial cleaning in high traffic zones.

3. Procyon:  An effective biodegradable non-detergent that is eco friendly, it uses a water soluble degreasing agent. Treatment with Procyon leaves your carpets and upholstery looking and smelling fresh and clean.

Rugs need special care and should not be exposed to harsh cleaning agents or water. Oriental rugs and Persian rugs are very fragile and should not be overexposed to sunlight as it will cause the colours to fade. If they get stained or need cleaning consult professionals with expertise in rug and carpet cleaning. Middlesex residents can find dry cleaners in the area that specialise in cleaning rugs.
