How wet cleaning works
Also referred to as steam cleaning or hot water extraction, the process involves conditioning of carpets with chemical reagents to liquefy oil-based substances and soils, which are very common in carpet fibers. Our cleaners will heat water to a temperature near boiling, pressurize it, and then inject it into the carpets. After 10-15 minutes, the machine will extract the cleaning solution.

How cleaning with absorbent pads works
People use the cleaning method, also known as bonnet cleaning, mostly for routine maintenance. However, you can still use it for regular carpet cleaning. Cleaning technicians will start by vacuuming your carpets, and they will then spray a chemical solution onto them with an electric sprayer or a hand pump. They will allow the solution to remain on your carpets for a reaction time or suitable dwell. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
They will place the absorbent bonnet or pad, which looks more like a towel on a rotary floor machine’s drive block and allow it to spin over your carpets at 100-300 rpm. The action is significant in impregnating carpet fibers with a chemical solution. The pad will also pick up the chemical solution with the soils afterwards.
The methods pros and cons
– It is fast, simple and cheaper
– If your carpets are lightly soiled, the method will provide the best results

They will then work it into your carpet fibers using a machine that features counter-rotating brushes. The powder will absorb soils in your carpet fibers. After settling on your carpets for around 10-15 minutes, they will vacuum it up.
The methods pros and cons
Pros
– It is a simple cleaning method that does not require technical training

– May cause excess dust build up in your home
– The cleaning method won’t clean the deeper parts of your carpets.
How rotary or dry foam shampoo cleaning method works

They will then whip it into the foam and force it to work into the carpet fibers using special machine’s rotating brushes. After a short time, they will extract the foam using a vacuum.

To clean your carpets, our cleaners will mix water with a special solution and then spray it to clean them. They will then extract the solution. The pressure involved in the spray cleaning solution will help in removing the dirt deposited on the tissue’s internal structure. The process thoroughly cleans and refreshes carpets.

Why you should avoid cleaning your carpets with rental machines
There are many problems associated with using rental carpet cleaning machines or hiring new carpet cleaners. In the earlier days, carpet-cleaning over-wetting was more common. Chemicals were at times harsh and the machinery used was less powerful and sophisticated than today. However, over-wetting is still a common problem including today. After carpet cleaning, most homeowners will hire a carpet-cleaning technician to solve the problem. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
Not only rental machines will over-wet your carpets. Uninsured and untrained part-time carpet cleaners using wrong methods and substandard machinery can cause problems. But apart from excessive drying time and inconvenience, carpet over-wetting can cause other problems. The problems include:
– Shrinkage
Shrinkage results from over-wetting carpets during the cleaning process. Using a lot of water or less powerful machine or setting one up or operating it incorrectly will lead to over-wetting. A carpet cleaner should assess the risks and identify the types of rugs you have in your home before starting a cleaning process. If the shrinkage is slight, they can stretch the carpet back to place. If the shrinkage is significant, the ideal solution will be replacement. An experienced carpet cleaner will take some measures to prevent shrinkage, but ensuring that they hold the right insurance is important. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
– Bad odors
Carpets that have been over-wet and remained dump for several days/hours are likely to develop nasty musty smells. That is usually because of bacteria setting in. Even though experienced carpet cleaners can remedy the problem, you should avoid it. If you insist on doing the cleaning the carpets by yourself, ensure that you have sufficient ventilation and airflow in your rooms – during and after the cleaning. Open the doors and windows until the carpets are completely dry. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services

According to Environmental Protection Agency, dirty carpets are sources of indoor air pollutants. In addition to the daily dust and dirt, the carpets can house particle pollutants, cockroach allergens, lead, and pet dander. Some toxic airborne gasses can adhere to the particulate matter and are trapped in your carpets.

Answers to frequently asked Carpet Cleaning Dublin questions
The following are some of the questions homeowners ask about carpet cleaning and related services:
– How long should I wait to have my carpet cleaned?
Every home is unique. However, according to carpet manufacturers, you should have your carpets professionally cleaned after ever 12-18 months. To clean them, the cleaning technicians should use hot water extraction method. The length of time may vary depending on the carpets usage. High traffic areas such as stairs, family rooms, and halls may require professional cleaning more often. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
Some other factors include the number of people and pets; outdoor environment; and how the homeowner maintains the car pets in between professional carpet cleanings. At times, the things will contribute to frequent carpet cleaning schedule of around 6-8 months. Also, you have to check your carpet’s warranty information. Most carpet manufacturers will require you to clean you carpets professionally after every 12-18 months if you want your warranty to remain valid.
– How will the carpet cleaners charge for the service?
Mostly, Dublin Carpet cleaners charge by square foot. We will charge only for the carpet areas we have cleaned. So, if you need some furniture to remain in place, we will measure around the pieces. If you need your rooms cleaned wall to wall, a process that will involve moving the furniture pieces to leave the rooms vacant, we will have to measure the entire room. There will be no reason of cleaning the entire room if you need us to clean the open areas.
– How will I determine the cost before the cleaning work starts?
Dublin carpet cleaners prefer visiting the home and doing an inspection. That way, we can discus with the homeowner exactly about what he/she wants them to clean. During the visit, Dublin cleaning technicians will measure the areas to clean and inspect other special issues. Being present during the inspection is important, as you will confirm the areas our technicians will clean. You will also discus the available options and address the concerns the cleaners may expect during the cleaning. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
– Which method will the carpet cleaners use and why?
Dublin carpet cleaners will use Truck Mounted Hot Water Extraction or Steam Cleaning. Our cleaners will rinse the carpets with hot water – not hot steam. Cleaning temperature is usually over 200 degrees and therefore the water appears to be steam. The largest carpet manufacturers recommend the cleaning method and therefore carpet cleaners will use the method to help you comply with your manufacturer’s warranty requirements. It is also a superior method of cleaning residential carpets. The method will not soak your carpets as you may expect with some other methods.
– How long will I wait before my carpets are completely dry?
The carpet drying times vary depending on the weather condition. During the days with higher humidity, carpets will take longer to dry, but during the dry weather they will take a shorter time to dry. They will take 6-12 hours. To speed up the process, you can use floor fans including box fans or ceiling fans to speed up the drying process. During a warm, dry d ay, open all windows and turn on your central heat. That will facilitate air circulation in the entire house. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
– Will turning heat up speed the drying?
Unless the weather is freezing, there will be no need of turning up the heat. The right temperature should be around 60-70 degrees.

– Will I walk on my carpets immediately after the cleaning?
When possible, try to minimize the carpet usage until they are completely dry. However, light usage during the drying process is all right. You can walk on the carpets if your shoes or feet are clean. Also, during the first few drying hours, take care of walking from a damp surface onto a hard one to avoid slipping. You can request a complimentary shoe covering pair from the cleaning technicians.
– What should I do before the cleaning technicians begin the cleaning work?
Removing every small thing from the rooms you need to be cleaned is important. Remove some items such as kids’ toys, magazines, and small rugs. Also, remember to remove breakables from the tops of furniture you need the cleaners to move.
– Do carpet cleaners move furniture?
Our carpet cleaners will ask you to move as many small items as possible to make the cleaning work easier. However, they can move some larger pieces, which the homeowner cannot afford to remove from the room. They will only move the furniture far enough to access the floor surface they need to clean. They will then replace them, placing the pieces on plastic tabs or special Styrofoam blocks as a way of protecting the carpet and furniture during the drying process. However, they may not safely move some pianos, beds, bookshelves, entertainment centers. The cleaners can clean around them without causing any issues. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services

If you are a father, mother, or a pet owner, carpet cleaners will offer you a cleaning method that will be safe for everyone in the house. In the cleaning process, they will extract any products they use, leaving your carpets clean, safer, and fresh. We prefer using a product that are safe and of higher quality.

The carpet cleaners will do their best to remove every stain, but it can be impossible due to the staining materials. They mostly keep their vans stocked with spotters for all types of stains.

– Is level of carpet cleaning experience important?
The level of carpet cleaning experience is important. Cleaning companies that have been in the industry for a long time will always update their cleaning technologies to meet the needs of their clients. They must also take some courses related to the cleaning industry. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services

Read the manufacturer’s warranty information. Mostly, it will require professional cleaning after every 12-18 months. Ensure that you have selected one of the cleaning methods your manufacturer has recommended. What’s more, you should use a working vacuum to vacuum your carpets properly. Blot up any spill promptly. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
– After cleaning a new carpet, it will get dirty faster. Is it true?
That is false. However, some years ago it was true. The cleaners only shampooed carpets and left all chemicals in the carpets. But today, carpet cleaners have adapted stronger and effective methods that rinse every residue from carpets. The residues are known to cause re-soiling. Therefore, always hire professional cleaners to maintain the quality of your carpets. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
– Will the carpet cleaners take rugs off the site? Will they clean them in the home?
Cleaning the rugs offsite is important. That is due to the amount of work cleaning technicians have to do to ensure they have effectively removed dry soil from the rugs. Removing the soil in your home is impossible. We will therefore carry the rugs with them to do the cleaning on our shop. We will provide expert care for the area and fine oriental rugs to ensure that the rugs are safe. Ask about moth treatment and wool carpet protector. For convenience, we will offer free delivery and pickup services. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services

Most carpet cleaning companies will offer guarantee. Normally, spots may reappear within 3-5 days. Our cleaning technicians will easily recognize the spots that may reappear even before starting the cleaning process. They will inform you about the possibility. If you are not satisfied with the aspect of their cleaning, you should contact us a few days after the cleaning. We will work to fix any problems or concerns you have.

– Will the cleaners apply a protector to my carpets?
Our cleaning technicians can apply a protector, but they will discuss with you the condition of your carpets before the cleaning starts. They will let you know whether you need a fiber protector or not.
– What is the purpose of a carpet protector?
As your carpets wear out, the fibers will be scratched or damaged. You will hardly notice that, but the effect will be efficient in your major traffic areas such as stairs, hallways, and front of the most attractive furniture. Carpet protectors will help in filling the little scratching in your carpet fibers to prevent dirt from sticking to materials or staining them. New carpets will boast the feature – manufacturers add it while the carpets are still on the mill. However, the protectors will wear off with time, and you should, therefore, do re-application after a couple of years for maintenance purposes. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
– Should I be at home for the cleaning to take place?
We prefer homeowners to be at home during the cleanup, but it is not necessary. Cleaners will do good work including when the owner is not present. We also prefer collecting money on site after the cleanup. Therefore, if you won’t be at home during the cleanup, notify our customer representative. You will agree on the payment. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
– Where do black lines under doorways and around baseboards come from?
The problems are more common in homes with light colored carpets than in those with dark colored ones. The soiling is known as filtration soiling. It results from air passing through your carpets. When trying to go through the spaces between your carpets and the closed door or baseboard, the air will make the lines. That may take a longer period, and you will not notice the problem until there is a build up. With special effort, you should expect reasonable results. We may charge an extra amount for the service. To prevent filtration soiling, sweep with a broom and vacuum the edges of your carpets regularly. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
– How should I prepare my carpets for professional cleaning?
To prepare your carpets for professional cleaning, vacuum them thoroughly. The vacuuming will help you achieve better results after the cleaning has ended. If you have no time to vacuum, Dublin carpet cleaning technicians will use strong, commercial grade vacuum cleaners to vacuum them. Hire Professional Carpet Cleaning Services
– How long will it take to clean my carpet?
We will provide you with an estimate, but the length of time will highly vary depending on the level of stains and soiling. To clean a three-bedroom house, we may take one and a half hours. To clean a hall, stairs, a lounge and a landing, we may take around one hour. To clean a 3 piece suite, the will typically take about one hour.
