Why Not To Clean Your Carpet Yourself

Why Not To Clean Your Carpet Yourself
By James C

If it is time to have your carpet cleaned a thought might cross your mind. Should I clean it myself? We have all seen the rental machines available at almost every grocery or home improvement store. It sounds easy enough right? This article will give you some reasons why you should not do it yourself and why you should hire a professional cleaner.

There are many reasons why you should hire a professional carpet cleaner. For starters, the equipment that a professional will use is far more sophisticated than what you can rent for $20 at the store. A steam cleaners equipment can cost thousands and thousands of dollars and will produce more heat and will be able to extract much more of the water out of your carpet. This means that your carpet will be left drier and with less soil attracting residue. Professionals will also have access to several different dry cleaning methods which are not available for rent. This means that if you hire a professional you can have your carpets dry in under an hour instead of in a day or two. Another reason to hire a professional is that they will have years of experience. Experience can not be replaced. They will know what you can and what you can't put on carpeting. Someone who is not in the industry can easily ruin a carpet by using the wrong chemicals. A professional will also have specialty spotters which will allow them to remove far more stains than you can with a rental. Finally, the last reason that I will mention is that a professional will get the job done much quicker. How much is your time worth? A pro can clean your carpet in 2 hours when it might take you all day to clean it with a slow and cumbersome rental machine.

As you can see there are many reasons to hire a professional. Take them into consideration before you make a decision. Good luck with whatever you decide.
