Carpet Cleaners
Many home owners and renters receive flyers from carpet cleaners offering their services at enticingly low prices. If you're considering hiring one of these services, there are two phrases you must remember:
- Buyer beware
- If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Carpet cleaning services are not regulated. There are no specific laws governing how they tout their wares, or official guidelines to help the consumer. Reputable organizations, however, do conform to a certain set of standard practices.
Cost
The bottom line cost of carpet cleaning will vary - there is no real way for carpet cleaning company to give you an accurate estimate without knowing the size of a room. If you received a flyer that offers a set price for a set number of rooms, be sure to look for the fine print that tells you the size of the rooms they are talking about. If you can't find it, then be sure you ask the question when you call.
The price quoted should include all costs, including fuel costs, the cost of cleaning materials - including special solutions applied to spots - and any environmental or waste removal fees. When asking for a price quote, be honest with yourself and the service provider - if you've got pets and they've left some spots or stains that need treating and odors to be removed, if you know your carpet requires special handling, make sure these special needs are included in the price quote.
Equipment
Bargain carpet cleaners often show up at the job with smaller, portable steam cleaning equipment. This type of equipment may be adequate in small homes or homes where the floors are covered with small carpets rather than large wall to wall carpets. They also do a fairly good job on hard surfaces, such as kitchen and bathroom counters and the like. They are not, however, known for their power and are not appropriate for most deep cleaning session. Truck mounted steam cleaners, with powerful engines and ultra efficient extracting capabilities are the ones to look for.
