Professional carpet cleaning is good for your carpet and your health

The main reasons people call a professional to clean their carpet: They want it to look like new again and be sparkling clean.

What most don’t realize, is that professional carpet cleaning has many more benefits, including health benefits.

Steam cleaning is the most thorough method of carpet cleaning and most likely to restore the lush appearance of your carpet. Even traffic wear can sometimes be prevented.

Running the vacuum cleaner and using a store-bought carpet shampoo machine can’t remove deep dirt particles from between the carpet fibers. The particles are sharp and you press on fibers when you walk on the carpet. Fibers can be cut, which results in wear patterns and a shortened carpet life.

Professional cleaning also will improve the air quality in a home. To the casual observer, the house just has a nice aroma, but there’s much more to it than that. The deep cleaning removes allergens such as those caused by dust mites living deep in the carpet and pollen from trees, grass and flowers.

Children and adults who have asthma or allergies will feel better and be less likely to get a respiratory infection after these allergens are removed.
