get it. It seems like the bills to maintain a home never end. When your little one spills some red juice or your furry loved ones have an accident, the temptation to do-it-yourself versus trying to hire a carpet cleaning company and the cost associated with that can weigh on your mind.

As an expert in the field of carpet cleaning and thousands of cleans under my belt, I would never recommend using an “over-the-counter” treatment method.  Organic methods that can be made with items you have around your home are not only more cost effective in cleaning stains on your carpet, but a lot of times will do less damage to the fibers in the carpet and decrease the chances of “fiber-lock” where the stain is permantley locked into the fibers either by the chemicals in household cleaning products you can buy for stains or by the stain protectors in allot of these cleaners that can lock the stain in before it is removed.

Before doing any spot treatment, make sure you  Google your carpet manufacture cleaning recommendations. You also do not want to void the carpet warranty by not following the recommended cleaning methods from the manufacture. Many manufactures will actually require a professional IICR Carpet Cleaner to clean the carpets and provide any maintenance.

If you are comfortable you will not void any warranties after identifying your carpet type and the best organic cleaning method test a small sample area behind a chair ina corner to make sure your carpets will not have any reactions that may make the stain worse or not able to ever remove.

Of course, if you need a carpet cleaning company with the knowledge of how to tackle a stain without creating a bigger issue then give Clean Floors Carpet Cleaning a call today.

GOOD CARPET CLEANERS LOVE TO VACUUM

One thing that you learn when going to school for Carpet Cleaning is the importance of a good strong pre-vac before you get started on your cleaning. Many of my awesome Customers vacuum before I arrive and always let me know this right when I break out my Vac. A good carpet cleaner knows that you always vacuum even if your Customer has already tried to save you some time.

Many times my customers are amazed that I can still fill a canister (or 2- lol) when I go right behind them and vacuum an area that they just vacuumed. Sometimes I vac up so much after the Customer vacuums that they believe their vacuum is not a good machine in keeping their carpets cleaned.  Really, almost any vacuum will get the job done (hunter is pictured with a floor vac here, most of the time he uses his backpack vac), as long as you follow these steps for the perfect vacuum.

1. Do not put anything down before the vac. No deodorizers or carpet cleaners. These powdered and liquids can actually keep more dirt in your fibers while the vacuum power focuses on the product you applied wasting valuable suction power that could be used for dirt.

2. Use a carpet rake before you vacuum. A carpet rake is a great tool for pre-loosing soils before you vac. These rakes can be bought online or at a local janitorial supply store. Start at the top of the room and work your way down in 4-6′ sections as you rake.  Rake your carpet all the way to and out the door.

3. Sweep the edges with a crevice tool or brush. Tight corners (especially behind doors) can hold lots of dirt and grime.  Sweep these hard-to-reach spots real well out onto the carpet and then use your vacuum crevice tool to clean it up.

4. Make “Shark Teeth” patterns when vacuuming in a 3-1 pass. Up – back – up and then back with your first tooth. This pattern is a trade tool that helps you make sure you double hit any spot and keep a consistent vacuum.

5. Make sure your vacuum is clean. The importance of a clean vacuum cleaner goes without saying. Always check your roller for debris, make sure your canister or bag is clean, and that your brushes are debris free.

Following these important vacuuming tips will add years of life to your carpet and keep them the cleanest for the best smell and the least amount of allergens.

URINE TROUBLES

We love our furry family members more than anything. If you have a puppy or dog, pet urine accidents are going to happen on your carpets. Sometimes our furry friends get excited or nervous and have an accident or our older aging fur babies might have accidents from lack of control as they age

At the end of the day, when those accidents happen here are a few tips to help stop and prevent and react t pet urine odors and stains.

1. When it happens, let them finish. Yes I know this sounds a little crazy, but speaking up is only going to make them move around during the accident making the clean-up more spread out and harder to control.  So just let it happen when it does.

2. Avoid eye contact with young dogs when you get home or are meeting other dogs. This will make them less likely to pee.

3. When an accident happens, get right on pre-cleaning. DO NOT USE over the counter remedies. Natural remedies such as warm water and vinegar or good soap are important. Get the spot saturated and use several dry towels to pat the area dry. Using chemicals such as Resolve or other instant cleaners can have an adverse effect and lock the urine stains into your fibers or cause color clause from damaging the fibers. A few treatments with the same process helps.

4. Call, text, or email Clean Floors Carpet Cleaning to come in with an Odor Enzyme Treatment and extraction with hot steam. With our UV Light we can identify other spots and after a good dwell time and treatment remove the dog stain and odors.
