Carpet Inspection
Our technicians will perform a thorough inspection of the areas to be cleaned, identifying any potential issues. They will take the time to listen to your concerns and address them; answering any questions that you may have. This open communication will make you familiar with our carpet cleaning process and help to set your expectations. We will provide you with options and recommendations for additional services as they apply to your situation, and you will be given a price up front so there are no surprises when the job is done.
Vacuuming Carpet
Chem-Dry of Indianapolis will always vacuum your carpet as part of our cleaning process, at no additional charge to you.
The Carpet and Rug Institute has this to say about the importance of vacuuming:
"Proper vacuuming is the easiest and most effective way to keep your carpet clean. It may come as a surprise that something as simple as regular vacuuming can also have the largest impact on the air you breathe. Removing loose soil while it remains on the carpet surface prevents dirt from being ground into the carpet pile and can help preserve the cushiness of your carpet. Keep in mind green cleaning starts with vacuuming."
Low Moisture Carpet Cleaning
Drier carpets mean a healthier home. If you have ever used club soda to clean a spot from a shirt, then you have seen carbonation at work. Our cleaning solution, The Natural, is a specially formulated cleaning solution that uses the power of carbonation to lift dirt to the surface, where it is whisked away. This effervescent, carbonated solution is so effective that we only need to use a small amount of moisture to achieve exceptionally clean carpets. In fact, we only use one-fifth to one-tenth as much water as most steam carpet cleaners use, typically leaving your carpets clean and dry in one to two hours, instead of the one to two days you may have experienced with other carpet cleaners. Faster drying is extremely important because the excessive moisture left by some cleaners can become a breeding ground for mold and bacteria.
Our Carpet Cleaning Reduces Returning Spots
Spots that reappear on your carpet after cleaning are usually caused by one of three things:
- The spot was not completely removed.
Although it may appear that a spot is gone after a cleaning, residues may remain that is sticky enough to attract dirt back to the spot. Our technicians are professionally trained to identify this potential problem before it occurs and ensure that the spot is cleaned thoroughly.
- Surfactants (soaps and detergents) were used to clean the spot.
Many carpet cleaning services and household products use surfactants that can attract dirt like a magnet if they aren't completely rinsed from the carpet, causing the spot to reappear faster than ever. Our cleaning solution, The Natural, contains no soaps, detergents, or harsh chemicals; thereby eliminating this problem.
- The spot was left too wet.
Excellent Carpet Care: From pre-vacuuming to post-grooming, we will gvie your carpet the care and attention it needs.Leaving the carpet too wet can cause a problem called wicking. Wicking is a process that happens as the carpet dries, where the water rises (or wicks up) to the surface carrying dirt from the backing up with it. As explained above, Chem-Dry of Indianapolis uses much less water than other carpet cleaners, allowing the carpet to dry rapidly without wicking.
Carpet Grooming
The final step of the cleaning process is to properly groom the carpet with a rake or brush to set the pile. Grooming the carpet reduces the drying time by lifting and separating the carpet fibers. A properly groomed carpet will dry with the fibers in an upright position, helping to restore the look and feel of your carpet and reducing the appearance of wear.
