The 5 Key Questions To Ask When Choosing A Carpet Cleaner 
You will learn the questions to ask and save yourself a lot of grief, because, it’s very easy to end up with a worse problem than before you started searching for a carpet cleaner and with a lighter purse to boot.
Some of years back I had just finished grooming a carpet after deep cleaning. The lady of the house came in and said it looked lovely and did I think it would be dry by Wednesday? Wednesday? I said, today’s Monday! Yes I know she said, the last time I had it cleaned he said it was quite normal to take a few days before fully dry, we only rang him back because it was beginning to smell a bit ‘whiffy’.
I told her even though it was wool and had been deep cleaned, it would be dry in a few hours. I then decided I needed to write this article so anyone seeking a cleaner need not get ripped off if you ask the right questions. Detailed video presentation on each point can be accessed at my website. Carpet Cleaning Somerset

Some firms will tell you their ‘dry’ or ‘low moisture systems’ are as effective. This simply isn’t the case for the majority of residential carpets in my opinion. Although the drying time of under an hour seems attractive, it’s no wonder because it’s simply skimming the surface leaving high levels of soiling below the surface only to reappear in a short time.
2. Can you supply two or three testimonials from happy customers that have used you?
Of course, the best way to pick a carpet cleaner, like any tradesman is to ask friends, family members or work colleagues. But sometimes you can’t get a recommendation so you have no alternative but to trawl the Yellow Pages, Google it or some kind of directory.
