Steam Carpet Cleaning vs Dry Carpet Cleaning

There are a few different options when it comes to getting your carpet professionally cleaned, but which carpet cleaning process is right for you? This tends to be one of the most frequently asked questions when TLC Carpet Care get calls on carpet cleaning appointments. So which is best? Let's take a look at the most simplistic difference. 

You here a lot by dry cleaning companies by how when they clean your carpets they will be dry in an hour, and for the homeowner this is music to your ears. After all who wants to wait all day for the carpets to dry. But how?? How does the carpet dry so quickly? Is it really getting the carpets clean? Well the answer is two fold yes and NO!! Dry carpet cleaning in it's simplest terms is a surface cleaning only. That's right your only getting the surface of the carpet cleaned. That's what they don't tell you. The bad news if you were to take your fingers and gently spread the yarn fibers apart from one another you would see soils trapped all the way into the backing of the carpets. If you spill a glass of wine, it will sink into the backing of the carpets, and yes if your pet ever urinates on the carpet, you guessed it will sink into the backing. So while dry cleaning a carpet sure sounds convenient it may not be removing everything in your carpet. Thus your carpet cleaning is a facade. 

In contrast Steam Carpet Cleaning is going to put pressurized steam at 500 PSI at temps over 220 degrees into your carpet and then extract all the contaminates in your carpets. This process is much more thorough and will get all the way to the backing of the carpets. Yes it will take longer to dry, but which would you rather have carpets that dry quicker or carpets that may take a little longer to dry but are much cleaner? 

TLC Carpet Care has decades of experience in steam cleaning carpets and the results are proven and effective at cleaning and removing all spots and stains.
