Yes Pet Friendly’s Proven 5-Step Carpet Cleaning Process

Ryan Anderson • June 27, 2024

Imagine sinking your bare feet into a plush, and clean carpet.  Unfortunately, that’s not always the case with many carpets in homes.  Over time, especially in high-traffic areas, carpets become dull, and smelly, having trapped dust, dirt, and allergens for a long time.  The good news is that one call to a professional carpet cleaner is all you need to revitalize your carpets, restoring their beauty and freshness. 

In this post, we’ll reveal the secrets behind our transformative cleaning process, taking you through each step in detail.  By the end, you’ll have a clear understanding of what to expect when you choose Yes Pet Friendly Carpet Cleaning Services.

1. Thorough Inspection

Before we begin cleaning, we will meticulously inspect your carpets.  We pay attention to every detail, identifying specific areas of concern such as heavy traffic zones, stains, or pet-related issues.  This assessment helps us tailor our approach to your unique needs, and ensure a truly deep clean.

During the inspection, our carpet cleaner will:

  • Identify carpet type and fiber content:  Different carpet materials require specific cleaning techniques.  Knowing the exact type ensures the cleaning process is safe and effective for your specific carpets.  For example, natural fibers like wool need a gentler approach compared to synthetic fibers.
  • Assess soil level:  The amount of visible dirt and grime will help our team determine the appropriate cleaning solutions and equipment needed.
  • Locate and evaluate stains:  Identifying the type of stain (coffee, pet urine, etc.) allows our cleaning technicians to choose the most effective stain removal solution.
  • Check for pre-existing damage:  Tears, rips, or loose seams will be noted and discussed with you to determine the best course of action for repair (offered as a separate service),

Our inspection process ensures that no detail is overlooked.  This sets the foundation for an effective and efficient cleaning procedure.

2. Pre-Treatment

Once the inspection is complete, our staff gets to work on loosening the dirt and grime embedded deep within the carpet fibers.  This stage is essential for a successful deep clean.  The looser the dirt, the easier it is to remove completely.

Here’s how it unfolds:

  • Dry soil removal:  We use a powerful commercial vacuum to remove loose dirt, dust, hair, and allergens from the carpet surface.  This initial vacuuming ensures that the cleaning solutions can penetrate the carpet fibers more effectively.
  • Pre-spray application:   We apply a specialized cleaning solution to the entire carpet.  This solution breaks down dirt, oils, and grime, making it easier to extract during the deep cleaning stage.  Our pre-treatment solutions are also hypoallergenic, eco-friendly, and safe for pets.
  • Agitation:  Using a professional grooming machine, our staff gently agitates the fibers to further loosen the pre-treatment solution and dislodge any remaining dirt particles.

3. Deep Cleaning (Hot Water Extraction)

The heart of our process is hot water extraction, also known as steam cleaning. This is where our powerful truck-mounted hot water extraction system takes center stage.  Here’s how it works:

  • Hot water extraction:  Clean, hot water (around 200 degrees Fahrenheit) is injected deep into the carpet fibers,  along with the pre-treatment solution.  The hot water then loosens and dissolves even the most stubborn dirt, allergens, and bacteria.
  • Simultaneous extraction:  A powerful vacuum simultaneously extracts the hot water, cleaning solution, and dislodged dirt, which not only cleans but also sanitizes the carpet, killing bacteria and allergens.

Deep cleaning rejuvenates your carpet, leaving it looking and feeling fresh.  It also extends the life of your carpet by removing abrasive dirt particles that can wear down the fibers over time.  According to a study by the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC), hot water extraction is the most effective method for removing soil and allergens from carpets.

4. Stain Removal and Deodorizing

Even after the deep cleaning, some stains might require additional attention.  Our skilled technicians are fully equipped with various professional-grade stain removal solutions specifically formulated to tackle the most challenging stains with precision. Whether it’s red wine, coffee, pet urine, or ink, we have the expertise to remove it. 

We use eco-friendly solutions that are tough on stains but gentle on your carpet fibers. For example, we might use an enzyme-based cleaner for pet stains to break down the proteins that cause odors and discoloration.  For wine stains, an oxidizing agent might be used to lift the pigment from the carpet fibers.

Additionally, we deodorize the carpet to eliminate any lingering odors. Our deodorizing solutions neutralize odors at the source rather than just masking them, leaving your carpet smelling fresh and inviting, which enhances the overall ambiance of your home.  Imagine hosting a dinner party without worrying about embarrassing stains or unpleasant odors!

5. Quality Check

Our commitment to ensuring quality doesn’t end with the cleaning itself.  Before we pack up and leave, we conduct a thorough quality check. Our technicians inspect every inch of your carpet to ensure it meets our high standards. If any spots or areas need extra attention, we address them promptly. We also take this opportunity to groom the carpet fibers, which helps to speed up the drying process and leaves your carpet looking its best.

We believe in leaving no stone unturned in our carpet cleaning process.  Our goal is to ensure you are completely satisfied with the results, which is why we encourage you to walk on the carpets and point out any areas that may require further attention.
