Vacuuming is the way most people clean their carpets. This suffices for regular cleaning but carpets need more for them to be preserved in the best possible condition. They need deep cleaning in order to remove stubborn stains and to condition the carpet fibers. This is what Alberta carpet cleaning Edmonton companies do.

It is also important to bring in professional cleaners because the regular vacuuming we do may not get to every spot and may not be a thorough job. We may also fail to clean around crevices, baseboards, radiators and other places that are hard to reach. This is especially for case for wall to wall carpets.

There are different types of carpets and they all need to be handled differently. For instance, the plush ones tend to take in dirt more deeply and regular vacuuming does not reach deep enough into the fiber to removes this dirt. It takes a more powerful vacuum machine or steam cleaner which is what professional cleaners use.

Another thing that professional cleaners will do differently is that they will use solutions that give much better results than shelf carpet shampoos. One such product is soil retardants. These are cleaning solutions that are only meant for professional use with professional equipment. It is supposed to be applied in a specific way which professional cleaners understand.

There are four indicators that it is time to call in the professionals. One is carpets that looks matted and that have a sticky feel. Another is if carpets does not look like they did when they was newer even after they have just been vacuumed. The third is grimy circles around the seats and sofa and the fourth is a dust storm when someone runs over a spot or drags furniture over them.

When the professionals come in, they will do deep cleaning that will go right up to the backing. They will do so using machines like a shampooer and rinse using an extractor. They will also take precautions like testing for colorfastness before using a cleaning solution and preventing staining by laying foil or plastic film under furniture. They will also pretreat stains before shampooing and spot clean stains.

Finishing is done with the same care. Wet fibers are first plumped up to stand up against the nap after shampooing which helps to facilitate thorough drying. They will also make sure that a room has good ventilation so that drying is done faster.

Professionals will also take care of special problems like a carpet that has been burnt, stained or discolored. Where there are depressions left by furniture, they will steam to lift them. If a carpet thread is loose, they will snip it so that it is level with the rest of the pile.

If a spot has been burnt, they will cut it out and cover up the spot with a patch that matches in size and shape. It the burn has reached the backing, the burnt fibers will be trimmed off and the area sealed with white glue. Fibers will then be taken from an inconspicuous spot and glued on to the area.

The work that an Alberta carpet cleaning Edmonton company will do on your carpet will leave it looking like new. And it costs much less than replacing all the carpets in your home.
