What types of carpet cleaning products are available?

How much will professional carpet cleaning services cost?
Professional carpet cleaning services charge per foot of carpet area. They also will tack on the cost of supplies and any specialty areas such as large staircases. When you hire the cleaning service you should also ask if they clean upholstery. That would be a perfect time to give your furniture a thorough cleaning. The price is also based on what condition the carpets are in. If there is mold or mildew present a specialty service will need to be called in to remove the mold and mildew.
What is Chem-Dry carpet cleaning?
Chem-Dry carpet cleaning is a method that uses less water to clean your carpets. A traditional carpet cleaning machine will saturate the areas of carpet and then suck up the excess. Unfortunately this still leaves the carpets damp. The carpets must then dry over the course of a couple of days. With the Chem-Dry system there is no need to wait days for the carpets to dry. They are usually dry within 1-2 hours. The real secret behind the Chem-Dry system is the chemicals used to treat the carpets. The solution contains carbonate ingredients that dry much faster than the typical water/soap solutions.
What are spot treatments?
Spot treatments are when you treat just one small area for a stain versus cleaning the entire carpet. There are special machines that are made just for spot treating and you can even buy foam in cans that come with special scrub brushes attached to get rid of the stain. One great machine is the Little Bissell Green Machine. It is light enough to treat small areas of carpet or it can be used for hard to clean places such as stairs and special throw rugs.
