How To Choose A Professional Carpet Cleaner
Keeping your carpet clean is vitally important, not only for the aesthetic quality that a nice clean home brings to your life but also for the health of you and your family.
Regular vacuuming, picking up any debris, and cleaning spills and stains as soon as they happen will go a long way to maintaining your floor covering, but occasionally your carpet will need further attention.
Every twelve to eighteen months, your carpet should be treated to a professional clean. This will ensure that your carpet is free from nasty microorganisms that can cause mould and mildew to form inside the fibres. Hiring a professional carpet cleaner will also lower the risk of allergic reactions such as asthma, as the cleaning process will remove the dust mite faeces that commonly trigger the condition in many sufferers.
So, how do you go about selecting a reputable cleaner to come and perform the task for you? Well, we’ve put together a few tips to help you make the right choice first time. Let’s take a look:
Ask them about training
Any professional cleaner worth their salt will have undergone training of some kind. Don’t be afraid to ask this question, as there are plenty of cowboy-cleaners out there who think it is good enough to simply invest in equipment and a set of overalls! Make sure they know what they are doing and will be capable of cleaning your carpet in an expert fashion.
Ask them about experience
Training is great and should not be underestimated, but if it’s coupled with experience it is worth far more. Ask the cleaning company how long they have been in business and if they have any references they can show you.
Ask them about insurance
Knowing that your carpet cleaner has full insurance is absolutely essential as they will be caring for an extremely valuable part of your home. By asking them this question you will have the peace of mind that should, heaven forbid, the worst happen you will be covered and your carpeting will be replaced.
Ask them about guarantees
Further to the question about insurance, a good quality cleaning company will also be able to offer you some kind of guarantee to the quality of their service. If you are not entirely happy with how your cleaning has gone you should be entitled to re-clean at the very least.
Ask them about their equipment
Reputable cleaners take great pride in their work and will be able to wax lyrical about the equipment that they use. Beware of the cleaner that ums and ahs their way through this, the chances are that they are not as reliable as they should be. Knowledge is key, as using the wrong equipment can result in shrinkage or poor quality cleaning.
Ask them about their cleaning methods
As with equipment, a cleaner should be able to talk about the cleaning methods that they use for different situations until you beg them to stop! When you have a cleaning company round for a consultation, ask them about stain removal. If they instantly guarantee all stains will magically disappear, beware. Although the best cleaning companies can lift stains that would be impossible to shift by the layman, an ethical company should inform you that not all stains are cleanable but they will do their very best to remove them.
By asking your prospective cleaning company these six question you will be able to get a fair idea of whether they are what they say they are, or if they should be shown the door.
