Take it from a company who knows: steam cleaning, or hot water extraction, is an effective process. The trouble with steam cleaning is the large quantity of water that's used. Too much water can compromise the carpet's backing, causing dirt and stains to “re-wick” in the process. The term “re-wick” refers a stain's tendency to resurface after it was seemingly removed. As you can imagine, this can be particularly aggravating for folks who spend hard earned money in order to protect their carpets. In addition to that, steam cleaned carpets take from six to eight hours to properly dry. Done incorrectly, as sometimes happen, it can end up taking as many as 48 hours to dry (most common in cases when the carpet cleaning technician makes the mistake of using too much moisture).
On the other hand, our LMCCA (Low Moisture Carpet Cleaning Association) approved method assures your carpet is dry in one hour's time. Most importantly, your carpets will be cleaner than any other service could make them.
