Carpet cleaners Rainhill
Anyone can clean carpet or upholstery, Right? That’s why you can rent machines from the supermarkets.
You can purchase shampoos and other products; however, professionals are educated to understand construction, identify the fibre or fabric, and know how to address it.
As an example, how would you deal with cotton being a natural product compared to a synthetic item? Our carpet cleaners in Rainhill are fully trained and have years of hands-on experience.
Our experience allows us to identify the difference straight away, but if I wasn’t sure, I would carry out a burn or float test.
What is this I hear you ask?
We take a strand of fibre, and using a lighter burn the fibre. The smell tells us what we are working with. From this, we appropriate the best and correct method to use.
Chemistry is the no 1 solution we use. Great products make our work easier. We carry an array of stock with us from UV lights to view urine and fix some problematic stains to alkalines, acids, gels and deodorisers.
We use either our truck mount or portable machines.
The machinery can produce steam vapour if needed, high pressure per square inch of water, and colossal vacuum power that removes around 90% of all moisture, leaving items touch dry on completion of work.
So how would we clean your carpet? The most popular way is hot water extraction.
Depending on the level of soilage also tells us what scale of the Ph scale we should use.
It could be 8 being neutral to 13. We also use an acid in the freshwater tank when using alkaline products. This is used to leave the fibres neutral at 7.5.
Whilst at any property, whether commercial or residential, we encounter stains.
Normally, these are standard marks, such as food or drink.
We also encounter many more challenging blemishes that require more advanced procedures.

Stain removal is normally a success. It becomes more of a challenge if the client has tried to deal with the issue themselves using shop products.
The products contained in these spray canisters vary but one message appears in the small print.
Test in an inconspicuous area as this may cause bleaching.
Also, the manufacturer has no idea what fibres they are dealing with.
When it comes to more technical problems, this work can be more time-consuming and will be an additional charge
Asphalt
Oil-based products walked in. Leaving that black mark. Not a common problem we deal with but its more of a stubborn issue to resolve.
We use a dedicated product that helps break down the tar, followed by a cold flush then steam extraction
More common than you think. However, we are dealing with biological matter, so safety first for me and my team, PPE is needed.
Using just cold water, we flush the affected area. Normally we are left with an orangy tinge.
Hopefully, you have not used shop products and only water to wipe any excess, as this can make the removal more difficult. Sometimes a repair is required which is an extra charge.
Diarrhoea
Pet accidents or humans that just can’t make it to the toilet. Not pleasant for you and you are embarrassed. Please font be as we see this type of call to our office all the time.
This is classed as an emergency call and we will get to you on the same day.
Again PPE is used as we are dealing with biological matter. Unfortunately, we can’t provide you with a cost. It would be a window as some jobs are more time-consuming than others.
Normally from animals but a small minority from the human sector.
Wee is a liquid and seeps down. Trying to resolve this all depends on the volume.
But it is the smell and colour change we also have to tend with.
Being sick is not pleasant. From any age. Toddlers projectile, to not feeling well, to excessive drinking or even food poisoning.
The stomach is an acidic place and leaves a stench.
Again this is classed as an emergency call-out.
Sofa cleaners Rainhill
When we deal with your upholstery, we will survey the furniture and report our findings to you.
Hot water extraction is the preferred and best method however, not all fabrics can be cleaned this way so alternative methods may have to be used.
We always start at the rear, then the sides. These are normally less dirty areas to deal with.
It also gives the solutions we would apply to break down the dirt and grease.
We would now concentrate on the headrests, then the arms, and finally seating area.
To improve drying times, we will use an air mover.
If it is commercial or residential a lot of landlords will request that a professional service is actioned before you vacate the property.
We can either visit you or have a chat on the phone, live video etc.
It is our role to try to ensure that we can leave the carpets and furniture in the best and sterile condition as possible.
Upon completion of work, an invoice is submitted for your records.
