Prescot Carpet Cleaners
When it comes to cleaning carpets, this should be left to the professionals.
I have been in this industry now for over twenty years. Back in the day, I trained with both the NCCA and IICRC.
Both were week-long courses. Teaching the theory, then the practical. You can’t learn everything here, but you learn and hone your skills over time. Have seen every scenario you can imagine.
We predominantly use steam extraction, but also use other methods.
Every carpet cleaner in Prescot starts by determining the fibre type because wet cleaning isn’t suitable for all. This would be picked up in our initial assessment when talking to you or on-site.
For this client, they had a man-made yarn. A large through lounge that was very dirty, and plenty of stains..
To begin, we gave everywhere a good hoover. This lifts the fibres. Next, we used a powerful alkaline solution that was applied, agitated and left to dwell for at least ten minutes.
Imagine the chemical we used were hundreds of little hammers, chiselling away at the dirt, making it break down and become loose.
The truck mount was set up. Water temperature set to deliver steam vapour with the pressure set to 350 psi.
We add an acid to the fresh tank and a capful of defoamer to the recovery tank.
We work behind the upholstery first, so we then have the rest of the room to work at.
Always starting at the furthest point and working backwards.
Using short forward and backwards strokes and checking our work constantly.
Once half of the room was completed, we placed an air mover to speed up the drying.
Onto the next section. Same process as before.
When complete, we now place the blower in the centre of the lounge.
This is left whilst we put all our equipment back.
Normal, completely dry times are about 2/3 hours.
Carpet Cleaners in Prescot
What do we do when it comes to basic stains? We always advise that this belongs to you, and our team will use all their skills to eliminate these.
The more technical and advanced procedures we need to carry out are not included in the standard price.
For many, we can’t advise until we physically see what needs doing. For example, hazardous and biological matter.
When it comes to haemoglobin removal, we will always wear gloves and a mask. That goes for all the issues listed here.
Safety and control is paramount. The area will be flushed under high pressure using cold water only. We then apply our solution. Allow this to dwell and again rinse. Once this is complete, we turn the heat up and steam the affected area.
Excrement
Please collect as much solid as possible. Using cold water, the infected area is flushed using cold water and under very high pressure. This breaks down the problem, thus allowing us to see what the next step is. Sometimes repetitive treatments are required to maximise the neutralisation.
The length of time to fix varies job to job. Even then, we will give you a window of costs.
Also, these are classed as emergencies, and we aim to get to you within a few hours from your initial contact with us.
Upholstery Cleaning Prescot
For sofas, steam cleaning is the most effective cleaning method.
Your three-piece suite is used daily. Both you and if you are a pet lover, the dog, we are all guilty of it. Wiping our greasy hands, spilling drinks, and the animal’s sweat has to go somewhere, and yes, people having sex.
How frequently do you wipe your face while relaxing on the couch? You are transferring microscopic items such as allergens and bacteria. We don’t realise we are doing it, but we do.
Isn’t it nice to know that what you’re sitting on is clean? This is one area that an expert, not a DIY enthusiast, must carry out.
Using dedicated products, a small hand tool for all the intricate crevices.
Get it wrong and I’m afraid any damage caused is irreversible. May I suggest you call us?
Renting a machine
If you try to do the work yourself, please heed caution.
Apart from going to collect the machinery and shampoos, you have to do the work yourself.
So the initial outlay could be around £50.00
The difference between what I do compared to yourself is chalk and cheese.
First, I can identify the fabric and fibres. Can you?
I don’t use shampoo. We employ acids and alkalines of the highest quality.
My machine can release water pressure exceeding 800psi, not that you would need that, whilst hired machines would be 30 psi if you are lucky.
You could shrink it, cause mildew, have it wet for days instead of 2/3 hours.
End of Tenancy
For every enquiry, we would like to visit to view the work required to be undertaken.
The survey will advise us of the condition, cost, length of time to complete and also set your expectations.
An invoice is then produced to present to your landlord
