We love our pets, and couldn’t live without them, but they can take a toll on the carpets. A professional carpet cleaning twice a year can really help eliminate odors, pet hair, dander, and stains.
A professional cleaning is far superior to any home cleaners or even carpet cleaners found in the grocery store or home centers. To get a good clean you need the heat and powerful vacuum that can only come from a truck mounted carpet cleaning machine. If you’ve ever rented a carpet cleaner you know that it is hard work, expensive, and doesn’t really do a good job, especially on the stairs and other hard to reach areas.
Why such a big difference in cost?
There are many different companies to choose from when it comes to carpet cleaning in Fredericksburg. How do you know which one is the best choice for you? As with most products and services it’s important to look at the value and not just the price. Some companies advertise prices so low it almost seems too good to be true, it always is. It costs money to operate a business, insurance, taxes, gas, labor and so on. If the price is low the company is sure to be cutting corners. You wouldn’t want your carpet cleaned with just cold water would you? Of course not, but it happens. There are guys out there offering professional carpet cleaning, but use only have an old portable unit that can’t even heat the water, or they might not use the proper cleaning agents if any at all. Then you have the giant companies with the big advertising budgets, brand new vans and big fancy shops. I have had some people tell me these large companies have charged them 3 times what I have, and done a horrible job. You see, most of these bigger companies have high rates of employee turnover, so you really don’t know if your tech started 2 years ago, or yesterday.
In my honest opinion you will get your best value using an owner operated carpet cleaning company. It only makes sense, if the owner is cleaning your carpets, they truly care that the job is done properly and for a fair price. Most owner/operated companies rely heavily on repeat business and referrals. If they were doing poor work they would starve. Many owner/operated companies have better, more powerful equipment than the larger companies.
When choosing a carpet cleaning company always make sure they portray a clean professional image. Their uniforms, websites, business cards, brochures and vehicles should always look good. This image will most likely extent to your home, a professional will use corner guards to protect your walls and have booties to ensure they don’t leave behind more soil than they remove.
