Getting your carpet professionally cleaned is one of those tasks that you don’t really think about too much if you don’t need it, but as soon as you do require it, it’s all you can think about! How much will the carpet cleaning cost? How long does it take? How do we prepare the house for the carpet cleaners? When can we get back in the house? And the most unhelpful answer is: it depends. However, when you break down these considerations in a bit more detail, you can get a better idea of how much it will cost. 

Why get your carpets cleaned?

Most people assume you would only get your carpets professionally cleaned if you’re moving out of or into your home or rental property, or if you have tenants moving in or out of your rental property. This is one of the most common times for people to get their carpets cleaned as the removal of the furniture presents the perfect opportunity to give the carpets a thorough clean. Another common time is when there is a large stain that needs to be worked on. If the carpet cleaners are required for a large or stubborn stain, people will usually take this opportunity to have the rest of their carpets cleaned rather than just opting for a spot clean. 

But you don’t have to be moving out of your house to need your carpets professionally cleaned. First off it is a good practice to get into to ensure the longevity and quality of your carpets. A thorough clean on an annual basis will help keep your carpets looking and feeling fresh, and as good as new. Regular maintenance also ensures that no stains or spots are able to take hold on your carpets, which can build up over time attracting further debris to build up which can discolour your carpets further. 

It’s also important for the health of your home and family. Carpet can trap air pollutants, allergens, bacteria, dust, and other debris which can affect your family’s health. A regular clean will not only freshen up your carpets, but your indoor air quality as well. This is especially important for those with respiratory conditions such as asthma, as the pollutants and allergens can exacerbate their symptoms. A clean carpet will help keep your home clean and healthy for your family. 

What is the carpet cleaning process?

Each area that needs professional carpet cleaning will go through a specially designed process to ensure a thorough clean. The trusted carpet cleaning service in Melbourne, Drytron Carpet Dry Cleaning, has developed a six-step carpet cleaning process using deep cleaning technology to remove dirt, odour and stains and leave a long lasting high quality finish. Across almost 30 years of experience, Drytron has been able to refine their carpet cleaning practice, developing two proprietary products in the process to ensure the most thorough clean possible for your carpets. The products, Drytech One and Drytech Two, are only available through Drytron’s cleaning process.

The first step utilises a high-powered jet vacuum to remove debris and position the carpet fibres in an upright position. Then a broad-spectrum pre-treatment to break down stains is applied. The broad-spectrum treatment ensures that all types of stains and debris can be uplifted during the carpet cleaning process. Drytech One is then applied to the carpets using a compressed air sprayer, which transfers a light mist to the carpet. This prevents the carpet from getting too wet, or fluids pooling beneath the carpet. Next comes Drytech Two, where an accumulator pad is submerged then squeezed as dry as possible before being applied to the turbo agitator. Through rapid rotation, the accumulator pad activates the Drytech compounds to extract debris from carpet fibres and onto the pad. This carefully executed process is gentle enough to maintain the integrity of the carpet.

So how much will it cost?

Carpet cleaning prices can vary depending on who you ask and the quality of cleaning that you’re after. First you need to consider the area of the size you are wanting professionally cleaned. Is it just the living areas where there is the most foot traffic? Do you want to get your bedroom carpets professionally cleaned as well? How big are these rooms? Room size is the biggest determinant of cost, as the bigger the space, the more time it takes to clean. This will likely be one of the first questions you will be asked by your professional when they are determining the carpet cleaning price or providing you with a quote.
