Moving can be an exhausting process. The final step to any move should be to have the carpets professionally steam cleaned. If you’ve rented the place you’re moving from then it’s expected that you leave it in the same condition it was when you moved in. This usually means clean carpets. The amount of your security deposit may be reduced if the carpets are dirty or stained. If you’re a homeowner, clean carpets leave a good impression.
Take Proper Care of Your Carpet
Make the job easier when it comes time to move by taking care of your carpet in the first place. Stains and worn traffic areas can be disappointing to potential buyers and new homeowners. Carpets should be vacuumed three times a week and professionally cleaned once a year with hot water extraction. This needs to be done more often in areas that get extra dirty. Spots should be removed as quickly as possible to prevent stains. Use an extraction tool with blotting when you can and brush over the area with a clean towel to lift the carpet pile, giving it a uniform look.
Clean Carpets When You Move In Provide a Fresh Start
Before you unpack at your new place, it’s reassuring to have the carpets cleaned. These services will provide a deep, below the surface cleaning that will give you a fresh start. You should schedule in advance to allow the carpets plenty of time to dry and choose a reputable company experienced with all types of carpets and stains, as well as pet odor removal. When selling your home you should be aware that clean carpets are vital. Getting them steam cleaned is an easy, cost effective way to give your home a facelift and give buyers the feeling that the home has been well taken care of.
Steps to Take Before the Carpet Cleaner Arrives
The carpet should be thoroughly vacuumed to remove surface debris and dirt. Some companies will do this for you, but there will most likely be an additional charge. Be sure to dust and clean the baseboards and the air conditioning and heating registers. While this doesn’t change the way the carpets are cleaned, cleaning these areas will remove more dirt and will prevent it from landing back onto the clean carpet afterwards. Be sure to free up a parking spot as close to the front door as possible for the truck to run the hoses.
Hiring Professional Carpet Cleaners Produces Superior Results
Professionals use truck mounted equipment. Some reasons this is beneficial are that these machines are more powerful and can get the water very hot. The hotter the water is, the better. The chances of cleaning solution spills in your home is unlikely because everything is on the truck. The only part that enters your home is the hose and attachments. The job gets done quicker as the unloading and set up of equipment is unnecessary. More power provides a more consistent level of water flow and stronger suction which means your carpets will dry faster. Carpets that are professionally cleaned will stay clean longer because the powerful suction prevents any residue from the cleaning solutions being left behind which attracts dirt and debris.
