Vacuum your carpeting before you have it cleaned. Vacuum loose soil to avoid spreading stains or making them penetrate deeper into your carpet. Applying the cleanser on rugs that are full of dirt will only exacerbate the problem. If it's necessary, try waiting until the stain is dried before you vacuum.

Never just hire the first company you happen to come across. Research each company you are be and considering sure to read customer reviews. Check with the BBB for the company's local reputation, and don't hire a company who doesn't have a good one.

This is where most of the stains settle, so the only way to truly get the carpets clean is to penetrate this layer. You should find a new cleaner if they can not guarantee it.
