If you're thinking about having your carpets cleaned, we encourage you to follow these four steps:

STEP No.1: Make a commitment to yourself to get your carpets cleaned. The longer they remain dirty, the sooner they'll wear out. Plus the longer you have to breathe all the pollens, fungus and chemicals that hide in your carpet.

STEP No.2: List your objectives. Do you want only the dirt removed, something you could do with a rented shampooer, or do you want all the bacteria, fungus etc. removed which will require a hot water cleaner, as we use. Do you want to work with an honest, reputable carpet cleaning company or are you willing to risk working with the company that offers the lowest price, knowing the company might not be in business tomorrow?

STEP No.3: Ask questions. The way you learn about a carpet cleaning company is to ask specific questions and listen carefully to the answers. Here are seven tough questions to ask a carpet cleaner before he begins to clean your carpet:

1. What method of carpet cleaning do you recommend?
2. What type of equipment do you use to clean carpets?
3. What will your equipment remove from my carpet?
4. How often should I get my carpets cleaned?
5. What training have you had in cleaning carpets?
6. Are you a member of the NCCA?
7. Do you offer a guarantee?

STEP No4: Once you're satisfied that you're working with an honest, competent carpet cleaning professional, invite him into your home and ask for a specific quotation in writing. Sometimes you may be able to obtain an accurate quote over the phone as long as you have the required information - size, type, condition, age etc. In this case also ask for a quote in writing. A written carpet cleaning quotation gives you the assurance that you know exactly what your job will cost no surprises.

By following these four steps, you'll gain all the information you need to make an informed, intelligent decision. If you want a quick, cheap carpet cleaning job, many companies in the phone book can help you. Or you can hire a shampooer from a DIY store or dry cleaners and do the job yourself.

But if you want your carpeting to be completely and healthily cleaned, removing the bacteria, fungus, chemicals, pollens, tobacco products, then we invite you to call us. We'll be happy to answer your questions and come to your home/office and give you a free written carpet cleaning quotation without obligation of any kind.
