Here are the guidelines we use…
- If there is anything breakable in it, on it or around the pice of furniture it will not be moved. (ie. China and curio cabinets)
- If there is any risk of damaging the furniture or the carpet. (ie some woods can bleed their stain into the carpet, )
- If their is any risk of personal injury to the technician due to the weight of the piece of furniture.
Should I Move Anything?
Yes, you should remove from the areas being cleaned, all nick knack and breakables. Also when we are cleaning your office, sensitive comapny data should be locked away and computers should be shut down and not left in sight.
How Long Before I Can Walk On My Carpet?
You can walk on your carpet immediately but it is recommended that you limit traffic until completely dry, dirty foot wear will re soil the carpets faster when they are still wet. Be careful when walking from wet carpet to dry flooring because you run a a chance that you will slip and fall as a result, thus we recommend not walking on the wet carpets until dry if possible.

Will You Remove All My Stains?
A stain is foreign material (soil, liquid, etc.) on carpet that is not usually removable by standard cleaning methods (the foreign material has penetrated or ‘soaked into’ fiber and has changed or damaged the fiber itself). Some stains may be very difficult or impossible to remove. Particuklarly is they have dyed or bleached the colour from the fiber.

Should I Have Carpet Protector Applied After Cleaning?
Yes, most carpet manufacturers recommend that you reapply protector after professional cleaning to restore the original stain resistance. Some manufacturers even require it as part of the warranty on the carpet. You can learn more here.
What Does Carpet Protector Do?
As carpet wears the fibers get damaged or scratched. You won’t actually see the scratches but will notice this effect in the major traffic areas like hallways, stairs and in front of popular pieces of furniture. Carpet protectors like Scotchgard or DuPont Teflon help to fill minute scratches in the carpet fibers so that dirt and staining materials do not stick to them. New carpet comes with these protectors on them from the mill but they wear off with time. It is best to have the protector reapplied every couple of years to help maintain the beauty of your new carpet.
Do You Offer Carpet Protector
Yes. All of our technicians carry a full line of chemicals on their trucks. When the technician is there he will look at the areas you need protected and give you an exact quote.

How Long Will The Carpet Protector Last?
How long protection will last depends primarily on how much use the protected area receives and how well it is cared for. It is recommended that a professional application of fiber protector be applied after each cleaning of all carpet and fabric types, even those with built-in soil and stain protection.
Why Don't Spills Bead Up On Protected Fibers?
Some fibers may not exhibit the beading characteristic typically linked to fiber protection. This can be caused by spaces between loosely woven carpet pile. This does not affect the stain and soil resistance and liquids can be easily blotted up even if it does not bead up.
My Carpet Is Really Old, Should IReplace It?
With the cost of replacing carpet being as expensive as it is today, it is always best to try having the carpet professionally cleaned first. It is far less costly and may make a world of difference.
Which Provides Better Indoor Air Quality, Carpet or Hardwood?
Carpet actually acts like a ‘filter’ trapping pollutants which are then removed by professional carpet cleaning. As long as a regular cleaning schedule is maintained, carpet provides much better indoor air quality than hardwood. That includes regular vacuuming on your part between professional cleanings.
WHich Requires The Most Time, Cleaning Or Rinsing?
Have you ever noticed that the wash cycle on your washing machine only lasts for few minutes and that the rest of the time is devoted to rinsing? Actually, the washing machine only has one wash cycle and several rinse cycles to get the clothes clean. Your carpet is no different and needs a thorough rinsing to be truly clean!
How Often Should I get My Carpets Cleaned?
Every two to six months with our dry cleaning maintenance method and about once every year with the restoration cleaning method in commercial applications. Frequency will depend on the amount of traffic you have in your place of business. Don’t wait for your carpets to smell funny or look bad before having them cleaned – this may negatively affect your health and the investment in your carpet.
How Can I Keep My Carpet Clean And Looking Good Between Professional Cleanings?
We recommend that you vacuum your carpets regularly with a HEPA equipped vacuum cleaner or Central Vacuum system. Clean entranceways and high traffic areas more often and always clean up spills immediately.
