Frequently Asked Questions Quality Property Care Ltd.
Q: Does the company guarantee that every single stain will be removed.
A:While the carpet cleaning company strives to remove any type of stain from any type of carpet, there cannot be 100% guaranty that some very old or stubborn stains will be removed. The company works with the latest, professional and highly efficient cleaning tools and equipment, which can handle the majority of stains on any kind of carpet, but the guarantees for stain removal given, depends on the condition and level of dirtiness of your carpet.
Q: How long does it take for a washed carpet to dry?
A:It depends on the material it is made of, but in general it takes about 3 hours for a cleaned carpet to completely dry off after the deep cleaning. If the windows are opened it should take less time. During the water extraction process, more than 95% of the water used to rinse the carpet is extracted, so drying is relatively fast. If the customer requests it, an air mover system can be used to speed up the drying process. For carpets which have been treated with Scotchgard, the drying time is longer (about 4-5 hours).
Q: Do I need to remove all furniture from the carpet before the cleaning?
A:The cleaners will move smaller furniture, but they can’t move wardrobes, beds and other larger pieces of furniture. If you can, you can move large furniture off of the carpet, otherwise, the cleaning technicians will place protective covers on furniture legs, to protect them during the cleaning.
Q: My 7 year old son has asthma, are the chemicals used for cleaning my carpet safe for him?
A:The carpet cleaning company works in accordance to the safety standard procedures. The cleaning solutions used are tested and are all safe for humans, animals and the environment. Even though the cleaning process is safe, you should probably arrange that your son is not at home or around the room where the carpet is being cleaned.
Q: I have a brand new stain on my rug, should I do something about it before your cleaning team comes?
A:Don’t worry about the stain. The cleaning team will come with the cleaning tools and detergents needed to treat just about any stain. You can blot any excess liquid off the stain, but don’t rub it. Just blot with a clean damp cloth or paper towels.
Q: How often do I need to deep clean my carpets and rugs, to ensure a safe and healthy environment?
A:It depends on the type of carpet, as well as on whether you have pets, toddlers or people with dust allergies and asthma at home. If you have neither, one deep cleaning per year is OK. For the others, a professional deep cleaning is recommended at least once in every 6 months.
Q: Do I need to prepare or do a pre-treatment of the carpet before the carpet cleaning procedure?
A:Not really. You can remove some of the heavier furniture off it, and hoover the carpet before the carpet cleaners arrive. They will also hoover it with a professional, powerful vacuum cleaner.
Q: Can I place my furniture back on the cleaned carpet right after the procedure?
A:You must wait until the carpet is completely dry before you step on it or place the furniture back on top of it, because this may cause damage the fibres of your carpet.
Q: Certain stains which were treated before my last carpet cleaning are still slightly visible, is it possible for your cleaners to treat them once more?
A:Of course. Before the cleaners proceed to clean the carpet or rug, they perform a thorough inspection of the condition and type of your carpet, as well as of all stains and other damage to it. The stains are all pre-treated with the designated stain treatment products and tools before the cleaners proceed to deep cleaning the entire carpet.
