Carpet cleaning

Picture for a moment the process of cleaning your clothes with a washer and dryer. Of course you would clean your clothes with a cleaning agent such as soap or detergent. Much is the same with our method of cleaning for homes and businesses.

Hot Water Extraction

The most efficient method of cleaning is called “truck-mounted hot water extraction.” This truck-mounted cleaning machine is powered by an engine the size of a huge John Deere tractor motor and is gas and battery operated. Most carpet machines used by other cleaners only have an engine equivalent to the size of a push lawn-mower. Many home owners are not aware that if your carpet is not cleaned by a certified carpet technician, your carpet’s warranty may become void. J’s Cleaning Services adheres to every carpet manufacture’s guidelines including Shaw, Mohawk, Aladdin, and many others.

The Benefits of Proper Cleaning

The beauty and life of your carpet depends on the attention it receives. Quality carpet that is well-maintained should last ten to fifteen years. Proper cleaning keeps it looking new for its full lifetime, lowers indoor allergens, and protects your carpet warranties. Carpet is generally the third-most expensive investment in your home! To get the best return on your money, it’s best to maintain a healthy carpet.

How Often to Clean

With all this said, you are probably wondering: “How often should I get my carpets professionally cleaned?” Great question! Your carpet’s warranty says to wait no longer than every twelve to eighteen months. With large amounts of foot traffic or if you own pets or have children, you want to contemplate having them cleaned sooner than that.

Skipping Carpet Cleaning

The failure to professionally clean a carpet means that a certain portion of bacteria, like allergens and dander, will stay in your carpet. This is the number one cause of premature aging of carpet and loss of color. The remaining portion of bacteria, like dander and dust mites, enter your indoor breathing air and their exposure is a top cause for the onset or exacerbation of respiratory problems, like asthma and allergy attacks.
