Ultimate Carpet Cleaning | Steam, Dry, Rug, Mattress, Leathe

1. How is the 7 step restorative process different to Steam Cleaning? The major advantage of steam cleaning over dry cleaning is that you get a deeper clean that removes more of the deep down dirt and grit that wears away at your carpet fibers.

2. The two main disadvantages or steam cleaning are1. Over wetting of the carpet:-Without vacuuming first, much of the deep down dry dust particles in your carpet get wet and soggy when flushed with the cleaning solution.  A lot of water and detergent is then needed to clean the carpet, especially in high traffic or heavily soiled areas. Often the backing and underlay can get wet, which is not good for your carpet. Over wet carpet can cause the carpet to wrinkle or shrink as well as cause odors. Not to mention the inconvenience of having wet carpet for days on end.  

3. 2. Residual Detergent:-With steam cleaning the carpet is flushed with a solution of water and detergent during the cleaning process and some of this solution remains in the carpet after cleaning. When the carpet does eventually dry the water evaporates but the cleaning solution remains behind.  This left over detergent can make your carpets fibers sticky or tacky, and will immediately attract dirt particles. This is the number one reason for carpets re-soiling quickly after cleaning.  The 7 step restorative process removes excess dry dust fist (step 1), pre conditions your carpet (step 2) and then has separate washing and rinsing stages (steps 3 & 4) which gives you  a deep down clean without wetting the carpet backing or underlay, or leaving behind residual detergent.
