If you’re like many people, you probably vacuum your carpets everyday or every other day. We often believe that if our carpets aren’t visibly dirty they’re clean. But this isn’t true. Carpets can lock dirt, grime and pollutants deep in their fibers. This is where professional carpet cleaning comes in. Professional cleaning does more than just make your carpets appear brighter. It helps to get rid of deep seated dirt, grime, allergens and other pollutants. What do professional carpet cleaners use to achieve this? Below, we take a look at the different types of carpet cleaning techniques and the types of carpet cleaning machines the team at Mighty Green Carpet & Tile uses to clean carpets and achieve exceptional results.
Professional Carpet Cleaning Methods used by Mighty Green Carpet & Tile
At Mighty Green Carpet & Tile we apply a variety of cleaning methods to achieve clean and bright carpets. The techniques we apply depend on the specific needs and requirements of our clients.
-
Shampooing
This is the method most people think of when it comes to cleaning their carpets. It’s similar to washing your clothes, hair or even the dishes. Our team uses specialized solutions that are proven to be effective at dissolving dirt, grime and other pollutants in mat fibers. Cleaning solutions are selected based on the type of carpets being cleaned as well as their state. The cleaning solutions are spread across the surface of the carpets and lathered. Thorough rinsing is important to ensure deep cleaning. If any residue is left in the carpet it will attract dirt and cause damage in the long term.
-
Steam cleaning
This is a technique that is widely used in the industry. In fact, many homeowners purchase steam cleaning equipment to achieve similar results. However, this equipment isn’t quite as effective as the commercial equipment used by professional cleaners.
Our team uses state-of-the-art high pressure systems to inject very hot water into carpets. The heat and high pressure are effective at breaking down dirt, grime and other debris stuck deep in the fibers. The carpets are then allowed to dry. Proper drying after steam cleaning is important to avoid the growth of bacteria, mold and mildew.
-
HCE (hot carbonating extraction)
This method applies carbonation and heat to loosen debris and dirt without the need to apply detergent. It was developed to avoid the possibility of leaving behind sticky residues from shampoos. This technique also uses a fraction of the water that is used in other cleaning techniques. The drying time required is also shorter. This technique is a great choice for a quicker and deeper clean. It is also an effective way to avoid the growth of mold and mildew.
-
Bonnet cleaning
This method is often applied in commercial facilities such as hotels and office buildings. It involves the use of a heavy duty machine with a motorized spinning pad. Cleaning solutions are placed within the pad. As the pad spins it soaks up dirt from the surface while applying the solution. This method is often applied for commercial cleaning as it is quick. In addition, less time is required for drying. This means less down time for the facility. This technique however, should only be used for regular maintenance of carpets. It does not achieve a deep clean. Deep cleansing should be carried out using other methods every now and then to lift grime and dirt deep within the fibers.
