I don’t know about you but I’m fed up with the way I get treated by large companies! I’m not that old, but old enough to remember when…. when you knew the guy by name that owned the corner store at the end of the block.

Fast Dry Carpet Cleaning

A common question that most customers always ask me is ” How long will it take for my carpets to dry?” I thought it  would be a good idea to write this blog to answer some of your questions.

Just-cleaned carpet should dry within six to eight hours or less, and should never stay damp more than 24 hours, or microbial growth and odor may occur. In some cases drying time may vary due to heavily soiled carpet. In such cases we provide drying fans to expedite the drying process.

Slow-drying carpet may have had too much cleaning solution applied and not enough removed or extracted; or it may simply be a matter of humid-air conditions in the area cleaned.

Carpet cleaning machines – and operators – vary in their ability to control wetting, to properly extract solution and soil, and to implement drying procedures both during and after cleaning. The Carpet and Rug Institute evaluates equipment to determine how well it cleans and removes moisture.

High velocity blowers or fans speed drying by promoting rapid evaporation. Operating ceiling or vent fans, and setting the heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system on moderate temperatures (typically 72-75°F), also helps dry carpet relatively quickly.

At Fresh Start Carpet Cleaning we use truck – mounted carpet cleaning machines. These machines produce high heat and high vacuum, the high vacuum lifts the water out of the carpet and into the waste tank of the carpet cleaning truck. In most cases your carpet is only damp to the touch when the technician has finished cleaning the carpet.

Our latest truck – mounted carpet cleaning machine is the El- Diablo, please click this link to see the state of the art equipment that we will be using in your home: Truck -Mounted Carpet Cleaning.

How often should you clean your carpet

A commonly asked question by most customers is how often should I clean my carpet?

Frequently-used carpet should be professionally cleaned by a qualified technician at least annually – perhaps a little longer interval for infrequently-used carpet, and even sooner for carpet in homes of respiratory-sensitive or allergic persons, or in homes with indoor pets.

Factors to consider include: traffic, soil level, vacuuming schedules, spot cleaning schedules, professional interim cleaning schedules, and restorative cleaning schedules.

Carpet Cleaning and Allergies

Many people have different ideas about allergy relief and carpet cleaning.  You don’t have to remove carpeting from your house in order to obtain relief from allergy symptoms. In fact, carpet acts as a filter. Carpet traps allergens and keeps them form becoming air born.

 

Without carpet, allergens would land on hard surface floors and can become air born very easily, even by having someone walk through the room. It is true it is easier to clean hard surface floors than carpet, but what a daunting task to clean the floor three or more times a day to keep up. Carpets add warmth to your room. Carpets add protection from slipping and  falling. This is especially important for children and the elderly. They make a room look soft and elegant, and filter the air by trapping the allergens that would otherwise be kicked up.

Owner Operated Carpet Cleaning

Who ever said that size doesn’t  matter? Well, in the case of small carpet cleaning companies it truly does. Have you ever noticed the inconsistent service that you receive from most large carpet cleaning franchise companies as well as the high prices for their services? Different faces each time they come into your home? Not to mention the look of some of the techs that come into your home make you want to hide the family heirlooms!

Over the past 12 years as an owner operator of Fresh Start Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning it has been my goal to train well spoken knowledgeable technicians to represent my company. Our techs are uniformed, well groomed and come to your home ready to tackle any job that you have with a can do attitude, I maintain a small staff for these reasons.

Establishing a professional relationship of trust between my clients and my company mean more to me than the volumes of customers that my larger competitors value. We have been serving: Southern New Jersey area for 14 years. Call us or click free estimate for a free online estimate.
