How to have Clean, Healthy Carpets

By: Kelly Clendenning

Shopping for a carpet and rug cleaner in Kitchener online is all the rage these days, and for good reason. Studies show that more and more ready-to-buy shoppers use online reviews to choose between competing merchants. But you may have noticed that choosing a quality carpet cleaner in the KW region isn't easy.

You're bombarded with misleading advertising, confusing claims and simply bad information. From super-low prices and high-pressure sales, to unqualified technicians and near-worthless method... ”how do you ever find a qualified, competent, professional carpet cleaner?

If I may, let me share with you what I've learned.

Ask The Right Questions:

The way you learn about a company is to ask specific questions and listen carefully to the answers. When in comes to cleaning your carpets, area rugs and furniture here are the questions I suggest you ask any local Kitchener carpet cleaning company you call:

• What method of cleaning do you use?
• What type of equipment do you use to clean carpets?
• How long will it take for my carpets to dry? (Hint: anything longer than one or two hours could cause serious mold and bacteria problems)
• Do you fully guarantee your work i.e.: if stains reappear will you return rigth away to remove them for free? - if you can'™t remove a stain and I find someone who can will you pay them for that? - do you offer a 100% money back guarantee if I'm still not satisfied?
• What formal training have you and your staff had in carpet cleaning?

You see, not all carpet cleaning companies and methods are created equal - like most things you really do get what you pay for. If you want your carpets thoroughly cleaned, you need to hire a company that uses a proven, safe and Natural cleaning process - that hires and professionally trains honest, reputable employees. This is the only way to assure that your carpets remain healthy and free from dirt, disease causing micro-organisms and harmful chemicals.
