Service Residential

Your carpets add warmth and a sense of comfort to your home, however your carpet is designed to be like a giant filter. It traps dirt, dust, allergens and bacteria and improves indoor air quality by stopping these particles from becoming airborne. Vacuum cleaning removes the surface dirt, as does dry cleaning. However to remove the bacteria and soil trapped deep within the pile, you need professional carpet steam cleaning. Steam cleaning is probably the best deep-cleaning method you can use on your carpets because as it combines hot water with carefully selected chemicals, it cleans much more than just the surface of your carpet, and the high pressure spray helps jostle difficult-to- remove particles loose. Hot water extraction (steam cleaning) injects a blast of hot water deep into the carpet pile and then extracts it along with all the dirt and debris along with bacteria and toxins. This method of cleaning uses both heat and suction to wash and remove dirt. It is much like washing your clothes or your hair and gives a much better result than just wiping over the surface. Most carpet manufacturers recommend hot water extraction over dry cleaning and in fact some warranties insist upon it. A professional steam cleaner will use the best equipment to ensure your carpet is not only thoroughly cleaned and sanitised, but also quick drying. Non-professional steam cleaners often cut corners by using inferior carpet cleaning machines and techniques. Without the proper tools for the job and the right training and experience, carpet can be left soggy and take days to dry. Our Helping Hands Cleaning Specialists start our cleaning process off by using a high quality pre spray chemical with a high pressure delivery system, which means we use the least amount of chemical to begin with. Our truck mounted carpet cleaning machine generates its own heat so we can heat the water to the desired temperature for maximum results, then deliver it using very high pressure to again ensure minimum water is required. Our machine also has extremely strong suction to remove the maximum amount of moisture possible to speed up evaporation and drying times. This is extremely important as carpets which are left over wet, can become breeding grounds for mould and bacteria which in turn will have serious health implications. Mould is an allergen which affects the respiratory system and not something you want in your home. Over wet carpets can discolour and produce odour. The smaller DIY carpet cleaning machines you can hire do not have very strong suction or high heat and can lead to some of these issues. Whilst cleaning we add an acid to the rinse water. This acid rinse removes all traces of chemical residue. It is important to do this to stop rapid re soiling, but also to remove the cleaning detergent from the carpet to ensure nothing is left behind. This leaves your carpets feeling soft and fresh again, similar to using fabric softener when washing clothes. We complete our process by using a specially formulated sanitiser and/or deodoriser suitable for carpets, depending on your individual requirements. .

Steam Cleaning has the best results.
