Find out important information from a prospective cleaning company before hiring them. Find out how long they have been in business. Learn about the kind of formal training their management and their cleaning technicians have received. See if they vacuum before they deep clean. Ask if the equipment and products they use are strictly those with a Seal of Approval.
+
Be wary of companies that give per room prices or contact you via phone. Cleaning advertised at a set price per room usually have room size limits on the price. A professional cleaning company should be basing their price on the total area of the room that they are cleaning.

When hiring a carpet cleaning company, make sure you do some research and find one that has a good reputation. Talk to your friends and family to find one who worked for them.

Pour plain baking soda on a fresh spill and let it sit for a few minutes. Do not rush to soak up the baking soda, but rather, wait until it begins to bubble and foam. After a few minutes have passed, proceed to wipe it, and the stain, off of the carpet!

A carpet cleaning company you're looking to hire should have state-of-the-art equipment. A good company will at least have a procedure for cleaning that consists of 6 steps. The steps should involve vacuuming the carpet, pre-treatment, pre-grooming, steam cleaning, post-spot cleaning and a speed drying process. Any less than that, you can question the quality of work.

Never hesitate to ask a carpet cleaning company how long they have been in business. This will give you a good idea of whether or not they can be trusted to do a good job. If they have not been in business very long, you should require a lot more references than usual.
  
Ask the companies you plan to hire how long it will take for your carpets to dry. If you're stuck out of your home for 24 hours, you may be very inconvenienced. If the dry time is very long, ask if they have fans you can rent to speed it up.
+
Ask them if they will be vacuuming your carpet first, before a carpet cleaner comes to your home. If they say no, then you, yourself, should give the carpets a quick vacuum. Doing so will help to remove dirt and debris from the top layer of the carpet, making it easier for them to get deeper into it.
  
Carefully hide any valuables prior to having a carpet cleaning company in your home. Sure, most companies thoroughly screen their employees before hiring them, but you never know who may slip through the cracks. You could put these items in your car's trunk or in a safe, if you have one.

Before a carpet cleaner comes to your home, ask them if they will be vacuuming your carpet first. If they say no, then you, yourself, should give the carpets a quick vacuum. Doing so will help to remove debris and dirt from the top layer of the carpet, making it easier for them to get deeper into it.
  
Coffee stains everything it touches. Blot spilled coffee from your carpet immediately with an absorbent dry cloth. Apply a solution of one quart warm water, one teaspoon mild fabric detergent and 1 teaspoon white vinegar to the spill. After this solution dries completely, apply carpet cleaning chemical. Before vacuuming, allow the treated area to dry.
+
Always make sure you vacuum a carpet before you use a machine to clean your carpet. If you do not, costing you quite a bit of money, you could end up breaking the machine. Also, make sure you vacuum before you have professional carpet cleaners work in your home.
  
When you select a company to clean your carpets, ask which method of cleaning they use. Some will use steam cleaners which apply chemicals to get the dirt loose, then inject cleaning products into the carpet and then suck it all up with a vacuum to leave it clean and tidy.

If you have any real problem spots in your carpet, show them to your cleaning professional. Spot cleaning often requires different chemicals and methods, but the professionals are ready to deal with these concerns. You can make sure your cleaning service takes care of them in a way so that they disappear and do not come back once the carpet is dry if you specifically point them out.
  
 +
Invest in a high-end vacuum. Most vacuums are very weak and cannot do what is necessary to remove dirt, dander and fur from your carpets. While they can be very expensive, the money you will save in not having to replace your carpets as frequently will cause the vacuum to pay for itself.
  
Even if you are good at keeping your carpet clean yourself, a regular steam-cleaning has its benefits. Steam cleaning your carpet cleans it more thoroughly than many other methods, like cleaning by hand. It also kills bacteria that are residing in the carpet fibers. This will eliminate carpet odors.
+
Even if your carpets do not look dirty, they probably are. Even if you vacuum every day, your carpet becomes soiled just from regular traffic and dirt gets trapped in the fibers. Try putting a white towel at your door. Keep it there for a week and see how dirty it becomes. This will show you that you need a professional carpet cleaning company to clean your floor.
  
Try to find a company you can trust to leave in your home alone. It will be easier for you and them both if you can leave the house while they work. You will not want to walk on wet carpets and they will not want to have to ask you to stop what you are doing so they can get in the room you are in.

Cheapest is not always best. There is a good chance you will be unhappy with the results. That company could either do poor quality work or they could end up tacking on additional fees that you will not know about until they are done. The price should only be considered secondarily over the work they will do.
  
Hire a carpet cleaner for one room. Instead of getting a carpet cleaner to clean the entire house, start with one space. That way, you will spend less money. You will also get to see what their work looks like. You can hire them again to clean your other carpets if they do welll.
+
Look for carpet cleaning coupons. There could be limitations about which services are covered. Some services charge an extra fee. Talk to the company to set out your needs and expectations in advance so there is no misunderstanding. Have the company tell you exactly what will be covered by the coupon. Also, ask if there are any deals that they can offer you.
  
Once you've seen the results a professional carpet cleaner can have on your home, you will never go back to doing it the old fashioned way. Think of the effort and time you'll save yourself by leaving it to the pros: amazing results while you do something else and no aching back at the end of the day! Hopefully this article inspires you to call in the professionals.
