CARPET CLEANING FAQ - NEW BRAUNFELSDo I Need to Vacuum Before Carpet Cleaning?Well, the simple answer is yes, you do need to vacuum before a carpet cleaning can begin. Cleaning your carpet before the cleaners arrive helps remove any dirt or dust that is sitting on top and isn’t buried deep in the fabrics of the carpet. If you clean your carpet before the cleaners arrive, they can easily pick out the spots that need more attention when they are cleaning as well. You make it easier for the cleaners to pinpoint the dirtier spots and make the cleaning process get deeper down into the carpet since the cleaning solutions won’t have to fight through extra layers of dirt that could easily be removed by vacuum cleaners at home.
Do I Tip the Carpet Cleaning Guys?While it is a very nice gesture for the hard work that the carpet cleaners put into keeping your carpet cleaned as well as possible, tips are not required for the cleaners. You can tip them, or you may not tip them. While it is much appreciated by our cleaners, you are not required to provide a tip for them.
Do It Yourself VERSUS Truck Mounted MachineryOne thing that many people love to be able to do is clean their carpets without having to call professionals. However, any “do it yourself” machines that do exist are not superior to the truck mounted machines that we use to clean your carpet. They simple aren’t as powerful as the truck mounted machines since they have to be lighter, and the truck mounted machines are much more efficient when they are operated. Your carpet will benefit more from truck mounted machinery in the present and in the long run. you will be able to wait longer to clean your carpets again with the truck mounted machinery as well, so the costs will be about the same either way. However, the truck mounted cleaning machinery will keep your carpets looking cleaner and looking that way longer, so we highly recommend you call in the professionals when you need a thorough cleaning.

Do Spot Removal Cleaners Like Resolve Work?
The honest truth about resolve is that it really doesn’t help your carpets at all. While it may show a tiny bit of improvement, the chemicals in resolve and the lasting effects are rarely positive, so we would recommend avoiding resolve. Instead of using resolve to clean those spots in your carpet, you can try some natural cleaners or solutions that use mostly natural ingredients to help clean it out without the overload of chemicals on your carpet. Other methods include a mixture of vinegar and water or lemon juice. But, with any ingredients that you use on your carpet comes the risk of using them on a carpet that isn’t meant for that type of cleaning. You should always know the fabrics of your carpet and what is safe to use on it before you try applying these natural and effective cleaners.
How Often Should I Have My Carpets Professionally Cleaned?
This is a question we receive quite often. What we would recommend is having your carpets professionally cleaned a minimum of once a year. However, if your carpets have high traffic or if you own pets that bring in dirt or shed a lot, we would recommend a few times a year. We would say about once every 4 months or so if you have high traffic and pets, this way you can keep your carpets cleaned before the dirt and grime adds up too much over time.
How Soon Can I Walk on the Carpet After a Cleaning?
You may walk on your carpet once it is dried out completely. Our cleaners will let you know whether you can step on it as soon as they are done, and most of the time it will be dry once they are finished. However, we would recommend you walk on it with clean feet or clean socks to make sure you don’t add any dirt down in it right after all of the dirt and grime has been removed.

Most of the time, you will find yourself looking for the cheapest deal to get your carpets cleaned out. However, whenever you’re choosing a carpet cleaner to clean your floors, you shouldn’t always jump to the cheapest deal that there is. Whenever you are searching for the best carpet cleaner, you should look at a few things. First, you must compare the price to the product. Sometimes it is better to go with the more expensive cleaner if they will do more for your carpet then and in the long run. Secondly, you should look at their method of cleaning.

Our main advice for anyone looking for the best cleaner is to look for the cleaner that has a best deal for the money, meaning that they will give you an outstanding carpet cleaning service without overcharging for their labor.
What is the Best Carpet Cleaning Method?
The best carpet cleaning method is hands down the hot water extraction method using truck mounted machinery. This method will keep your carpets cleaned just like new and they will maintain a fresher feel for longer than any other method out there. We highly recommend that you only use this method when having professionals come over to clean your carpets.
What is the Best Vacuum You Can Buy to Maintain Your Carpet?
The top three vacuum cleaners we will recommend are in order of the highest price first. We do this since not everyone’s budget can afford a $500 vacuum cleaner, but for those who are willing to spend that much, they will find the vacuum to work very, very well.
The first vacuum on our list is the Dyson Ball Animal Multi Floor Upright Vacuum. This vacuum has excellent reviews and is great for dealing with pets that shed a ton. There are other versions of this same vacuum that aren’t designed for pets, so if you don’t own a pet, you may look at the other options. However, this is at the top of our list because of its review and outstanding build quality, but also because of the high price that comes along with it.
Second on our list is the Shark Rotator Professional Lift-Away Upright Vacuum. This vacuum cleaner is very lightweight and easy to maneuver, and is also very quiet when it comes to cleaning. It is an amazing all around vacuum cleaner that has amazing reviews and has lots of features in a simpler design. This vacuum is a medium-priced vacuum that can fit into many budgets that are looking for a great vacuum cleaner at a medium price range.
Last on our list, but certainly not the last thing you should think of buying is the Hoover Linx Cordless Lithium Ion Lightweight Stick Vacuum Cleaner. This vacuum cleaner may have a low price tag, but it doesn’t fall short on its job at all. This vacuum is small, cordless, and can easily go underneath shorter couches because of its smaller and efficient design. This vacuum is highly rated and is the cheapest on the list. But just because it is the cheapest on this list, doesn’t mean it isn’t all you need to keep your home cleaned.
