Carpet Cleaning

Just as the clothes we wear need regular washing to keep them fresh and hygienic, carpets require periodic cleaning. What we see is only a tiny fraction of the soil that a carpet contains. The visible grime we notice is only the tip of the iceberg; up to 85% of the dirt the carpet holds is buried deep within the pile.

Regular vacuuming is a fundamental part of ‘housekeeping’, but more specialised equipment and knowledge are required in order to clean your carpet thoroughly. Carpets collect and absorb airborne pollutants such as allergens, pollen and dust mites particularly in areas with heavy footfall. Once the carpet fills, it can no longer hold pollutants which may lead to these allergens rising into your breathing zone, resulting in an unhealthy indoor environment.

Accumulated soil and grit are major causes of reduced carpet and fabric life too. Carpet cleaning costs are minimal when you consider the replacement cost of carpets and furnishings, so regular expert cleaning makes economic sense.

So, whether your reasons are to breathe new life into your tired carpets, remove dust mites and allergens, or get some assistance in removing stubborn spots and stains – Fine Shine cleaning services have the experience and expertise to recommend the most appropriate method of achieving the best possible results, whatever the circumstances.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Drying Times

Drying times are influenced by humidity, ventilation, and the fibre and soiling levels of the carpet. With the most favourable conditions, the industry recommended drying time is between 6 – 12 hours. We can offer an air blowing system to vastly reduce this.

Insecticide Treatment

If you notice small balding patches in the corners and at the edges of your carpets, the chances are that you have an infestation of carpet moths or mites. This is a problem that needs immediate attention because it will continue to get worse, and carpet mites are stubborn when it comes to leaving. We can treat the carpets with an insecticide spray as well as any furniture upholstery that may also be harbouring damaging insects.

Stain Removal

Some marks will come out during our normal cleaning process. However, more resistant stains may need some specialist treatment to deal with them effectively. We are fully qualified to assess these stains, and to carry out the best and safest means of getting them out without damaging the carpet fibres.

Successful removal of these types of stains can be helped or hindered by the home remedies applied before we get there. So be sure to act wisely! A quick response with the right measures will improve our chances of removing the stain – check out our emergency stain response page for some useful tips.
