The Advantages of Professional Carpet Cleaning

When your carpets get that look (and I think you know what I’m talking about) that lets you know it’s time for a cleaning, you have a choice to make. You can do it yourself or you can have it professionally cleaned. Doing it yourself is tempting because it appears to be cheaper in the short-term, but here are 4 reasons why a professional cleaning is the superior option.

1. Professional cleanings utilize superior equipment. The fact is that professional carpet cleaners use equipment that works very well. This professional equipment heats water to a much higher temperature than do-it-yourself machines can. Hotter water enables better, deeper cleaning. In addition, those big trucks operate with much more power than the little rental machines. More power obviously means that water can be applied and extracted with more pressure. Not only does this result in more dirt being lifted out of the carpet, but it also decreases the time needed for the carpet to fully dry.
2. Professional cleanings are performed by superior technicians. Just as the equipment of reputable carpet cleaners, like Langenwalter Carpet Cleaning, is superior, so are the technicians. They receive training on the best practices for achieving results and often are even certified. In addition, these professional employees do this cleaning every day so they know how to do it. You, on the other hand, have little experience with the machine and cleaning solution. Thus, you are more likely to make mistakes that a seasoned professional would not make.
3. Professional cleanings deliver superior results. For both of the first two reasons, professional carpet cleaners give their customers more of what they want – clean carpets! More powerful equipment and more competent technicians add up to more extracted dirt, more thorough rinsing, and more efficient drying. Not only do customers enjoy cleaner carpets, they also avoid some potential do-it-yourself pitfalls. For example, when carpets don’t get completely rinsed, the sticky fibers can actually attract more dirt in the future. Even worse, if too much water is left in a carpet after cleaning for too long, there is a potential for mold growth. With efficient machinery and well-trained technicians, this will not happen when Langenwalter cleans your carpets.
4. Professional cleanings provide a superior investment. You may look at the price of a rental carpet cleaning unit and think that you are getting a good deal. But when you factor in your time, the risk of further damage to your carpet, and the diminished quality of the product, are you really? A respected carpet cleaner like Langenwalter is well worth the cost investment because they deliver a higher quality product while protecting your carpet from damage. Plus professional carpet cleanings, unlike do-it-yourself cleanings, meet the requirement stipulated by carpet manufacturers to keep the carpet warranty valid.
