1. Many companies that charge by the square foot will charge you for the
space under the furniture, even if they don't move any. In other words, if
your room is 12' x 12', they will charge you for 144 sq. ft. If there happens
to be furniture in the room, you could be paying 10% to 30% more than
you should be!
2. Chances of getting a novice carpet cleaning technician are pretty good,
especially if you are dealing with a larger company. Novice technicians
have an improper wand stroke, meaning they leave areas of the carpet
that have either not been cleaned or that are too wet.
3. Improper knowledge of chemicals is very common, even with experienced
carpet cleaners. Many technicians will just try one chemical after another,
until they find something that works! This is very bad because the wrong
chemical will set the stain instead of removing it, resulting in permanent
damage of your carpet, in which you will foot the bill for when you have to
replace it!
4. One thing you should never do is leave a carpet cleaning technician in
your home by his/herself. This gives them every opportunity to take short
cuts and save time, so they can fit more jobs in per day, to get paid more
Carpet Cleaning Boston - Finding A Pro Isn t ToughThose on the hunt for the best carpet cleaning Boston can
provide don t have to look far. In fact, with the multitude of
companies providing carpet cleaning services, the biggest
concern a Boston area customer might have is deciding which
company to choose.
Carpet cleaning companies in Boston range from small operations
to large, national chains and everything in between. Some of the
companies here on the national scene include Sears, Stanley
Steemer and Chem- Dry. These companies provide uniform service
that customers can count on, some serious professional cleaning
pra ..
money. This will also be at your expense! Unless you have had a long
personal relationship with one particular cleaner, I wouldn't do it!
5. Never agree to get scotchguard or teflon protector applied to your
carpets, unless you see the original container with the seal still intact.
Many times this will merely be tap water mixed with very little protector.
Also, a pump up sprayer is not sufficient to apply the chemical. The
water pressure needs to be at least 45psi, which can only be achieved
if they have a spray attachment hooked to the same machine they are
cleaning your carpets with. The most common is a "hydroforce sprayer."
6. Many times you will get a quoted price for carpet cleaning, but when
the cleaners arrive, you will find that the price has suddenly changed due
to conditions that weren't expected. This is an attempt for them to take more
of your hard earned money than they should. Make sure you find out what
the service includes before you agree to the cleaning.
7. More times than not, carpet cleaners use pre-sprays that void the carpet's
warranty. Most will tell you that the chemicals they use are safe, but
really are not. They use what cleans the carpet faster and saves them time.
Use Carpet Cleaning Equipment To Care For Your Rugs
You ve spent a fortune on beautiful rugs that compliment your
home decor. And they are ever so comfy on the feet! You don t
want to see your investment get ruined by dirt, oily soil, and
stains that can wear your carpet down and make it look and smell
much older than it really is. So be sure to use carpet cleaning
equipment to care for your rugs.
I m sure you d rather have your carpet looking and smelling
clean and fresh than looking old and smelling bad. A bad
smelling carpet can be the result of cooking odors, pet odors
but it can also come from normal every day ..
Of course, if they void the warranty using chemicals that have ph levels that
are too high, you will not be able to replace the carpet, unless you pay out
of pocket. This applies to nylon or polyester carpet, not olefin. (berber)
8. Dry cleaning companies that vacuum, then pre-spray, and then use a bonnet
with a buffer (floor machine) to clean the carpet, only cleans the surface. So how
do they get the rest of the chemicals out of the carpet after they are done? They
don't! It stays in the carpet and sometimes yellows or browns the carpet because
of the high ph level in the pre-spray. It will also dirty the carpet faster. Steam
cleaning is the most recommended form of carpet cleaning and is also the
most effective.
