Initial Assessment and Inspection
Before any cleaning begins, a thorough inspection is essential. This step helps identify the type of carpet, the level of soiling, and any specific stains that need attention.
- Identify carpet material
- Assess the level of soiling
- Spot any specific stains
Pre-Treatment Process
Pre-treatment involves applying a specialised solution to loosen dirt and stains. This step is crucial for effective cleaning.
- Application of pre-treatment solution
- Allowing time for the solution to work
- Agitation to further loosen dirt
Deep Cleaning Methods
There are several methods for deep cleaning carpets. The most common ones include hot water extraction, dry cleaning, and encapsulation.
Hot Water Extraction
Hot water extraction, also known as steam cleaning, is the most effective method. It involves injecting hot water and cleaning solution into the carpet fibres and then extracting the dirty water.
- Inject hot water and cleaning solution
- Extract dirty water
- Effective for deep cleaning
Dry Cleaning
Dry cleaning uses minimal water and is ideal for delicate carpets. It involves applying a dry compound that attracts dirt, which is then vacuumed away.
- Apply dry compound
- Allow compound to attract dirt
- Vacuum away the compound
Encapsulation
Encapsulation involves applying a cleaning solution that crystallises dirt particles. These particles are then vacuumed away, leaving the carpet clean and dry.
- Apply encapsulation solution
- Allow solution to crystallise dirt
- Vacuum away crystallised particles
Post-Cleaning Inspection
After cleaning, a post-cleaning inspection ensures that all areas have been thoroughly cleaned. This step also helps identify any remaining stains that may need additional treatment.
- Inspect cleaned areas
- Identify any remaining stains
- Apply additional treatment if necessary
Drying Time
Drying time varies depending on the cleaning method used. Hot water extraction typically requires 6-12 hours, while dry cleaning and encapsulation methods allow for quicker drying times.
- Hot water extraction: 6-12 hours
- Dry cleaning: 1-2 hours
- Encapsulation: 1-2 hours
