Our carpet dry cleaning process
Inspect and test
We check the fibre, test a hidden area and point out any stains that may not fully lift, before we start.
Pre-treat
Traffic lanes and spots get a pre-spray that breaks down oily soil and lets it go.
Encapsulate
A low-speed rotary machine works the solution in. Dirt is trapped in crystals that dry brittle.
Groom and dry
We groom the pile and you're walking on it in about an hour. The crystals come out with your next vacuum.
Carpet dry cleaning: common questions
How long until I can walk on it?
Usually about an hour. On cold, humid winter days allow a little longer. Opening windows or running the heater speeds it up.
Will the stains come back after it dries?
Stains re-appear (called wicking) when a lot of water pulls deep residue back up to the surface. Encapsulation uses very little water, so wicking is far less common than with heavy wet cleaning.
Can you remove every stain?
Most everyday stains lift. Some, like bleach marks, permanent dye or old burns, are damage rather than dirt. We'll tell you honestly before we start which ones may not come out.
Is it better than steam cleaning?
For regular and heavy-traffic soiling it gives a comparable clean with much faster drying and no risk of over-wetting. For flood damage or heavy contamination we'll recommend hot-water extraction instead.
