Steam Cleaning Very Dirty Carpets

When having carpets cleaned that haven’t been cleaned for some time like the ones in the video below, it’s best to hire a professional carpet cleaning company that can remove the dirt and grime from deep within the carpet fibres. The bacteria that can build up in the carpet over time will also be completely removed, leaving your carpets feeling and looking fresh again. The carpet in the video had not been cleaned for 6 years; this is a case where a deep steam clean works very well as you can see from the results.

Carpet Shampoo

A carpet shampoo is applied to the carpet and left to dwell for some time. This will allow the cleaning solution to break down the dirt and grime within the carpet and also deep down in the base of the carpet. Removing the dirt in the base of the carpet as well as the surface it will mean the carpets stay cleaner for longer. This is a problem with an untrained carpet cleaner or a cheap carpet cleaning company; they don’t remove the base dirt. So when the carpet dries, the remaining dirt slowly comes to the surface again and starts to resoil the carpet.

With this clean, an extraction solution is also used. It is a cleaning solution that is ran through the steam for a secondary clean and also removes all of the shampoo from the carpet so there will be no sticky residue left behind.

Regular Carpet Cleaning

With the humidity we have here in Brisbane – Ipswich – Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast, it is important to have your carpets cleaned on a regular basis to help remove the bacteria that forms in humid weather.
