Professional Carpet Cleaning...HAPPY Carpet Cleaners

As you can see, there are more than 'two steps' to cleaning a carpet, just like washing your hands. You brush off any loose dirt. Apply soap. Rub your hands together. Then rinse them off. You can then apply a moisturizer to protect and soften your freshly cleaned hands.

Each step is important! You can't really cut any corners if you want to get your hands nice and clean! The same goes for carpet cleaning.

Dupont Teflon(R) Advanced carpet and upholstery protector is spayed on and groomed into the carpet fibres.
It is the most trusted product on the market. It is non-toxic, CFC and solvent-free, leaves no odour or residue.
It is safe for your family and pets.
Dupont Teflon(R) Advanced provides 4 benefits:

Prevents soil from sticking to the carpet fibres. This makes vacuuming more effective and keeps the carpet looking cleaner longer.

Prevents excessive wear as the fibres are rubbed together when walked on.

Spots and spills are repelled allowing you to wipe them up before they become a problem.

The carpets are easier to steam clean the next time, thus you will get maximum life from your carpet and your investment.

Extra drying passes are used to remove as much water as possible. This takes a little extra time and effort but maximizes the moisture removed and minimizes the drying time.

The majority of spots will be removed by the pretreatment. Those spots remaining are treated again with stronger solutions and specialized spot removers.

The carpet is washed with a hot, gentle rinsing and conditioning solution (Plain, clear hot water is not as effective).
Then that rinse, containing all the soil and contaminants, is vacuumed away or extracted.
This cleans and sanitizes your carpet , leaving it fresh and clean with no residue that will attract more soil. It will not require vacuuming after drying.
It also prepares the fibres to accept Dupont Advanced Teflon carpet protector.

Would you wash your hands without rubbing them together? This agitates the cleaning solution into and around the fibres, further loosening and emulsifying the soil. This prepares it for rinsing and also helps to restore the pile.

This is the soap or cleaning solution. It breaks the bonded soiloff the fibres and suspends it until it is rinsed away.

This step is essential to proper cleaning and should not be charged as an add-on.

Thoroughly pre-vacuum the carpet to remove hair and abrasive soil, as it is more difficult to remove when wet. It also removes deodorizing powders etc, that may react with the cleaning solutions. This also prevents wicking. If this soil isn't removed dry, chances are it won't be removed when wet.

Inspect the carpet for wear, spots, and special needs. Point out areas of concern to the client. Ask the client what their specific concerns are.

Most furniture can be easily and safely moved now with Super Glides so the carpet can be cleaned from wall to wall.
The furniture that was moved for cleaning is put back in place with protective tabs or styrofoam blocks under it to prevent rust or wood stains on the carpet. The Styrofoam blocks keep furniture off the floor to allow air to get underneath for drying.
