Treating Urine Stains In Carpets

Carpet Cleaning Castle Rock Co

 

What to treat urine stains in carpets is one of the most concerns for homeowners, and when they try and fail the next step which should have been the first step is to call a professional carpet cleaner. While the urine stain looks easy enough to clean it's not. Some people will use soaps that simply cover up the stain, to their disappointment it always comes back.

Can a urine spot be removed or is permanent:

• How long has the spot been in the carpet before it was cleaned? Urine starts out on the carpet as an acid, with a pH around 5. Once it contacts oxygen and turns into urine salts, it begins to transform into an alkaline now the ph is around 11, unless its cat urine then the ph can be 12 or higher. The toxic  chemical reactions taking place will discolor carpet fibers turning the carpet yellow. People think this is the color of the urine it's not, it's now imbalanced ph. This results in a discoloration. Can a urine stain be removed? Depends on how long it's been there. If you call out a professional carpet cleaning company right way the chances of removing the stain are about a 100%. However the longer it stays the the more likely oxidation sets in and it becomes permanent. 
• What can be used to remove the stain? Everyone wants to save money and clean it themselves but using the wrong chemical approach on urine can do more damage and set in the stain permanently. At TLC Carpet care we have specially formulated Urine Stain Removers that have time released peroxides that will slowly reverse discoloration without beaching  the carpets. This product in only available by TLC Carpet Care in Castle Rock.
