Falmouth Carpet Gets New Life From SERVPRO's Deep Cleaning 

Getting a carpet cleaning, particularly in a high traffic area, as seen in the Before Photo, can help extend the service life of the carpet in Falmouth properties. The homeowner that ordered the deep cleaning service by SERVPRO wanted the carpet cleaned in a high-traffic area by a back entrance. Carpet that is located by exterior doors tends to get the brunt of dust, dirt, and debris that gets tracked into the Falmouth property on shoes and pets' feet. SERVPRO technicians can clean carpets and upholstered furnishings, and window treatments to remove the build-up of dust and dirt that accumulates over time. 

Types of Carpet Cleaning Offered by SERVPRO in Falmouth Properties

Carpet cleaning by SERVPRO is not a one-size-fits-all type of service. The technicians carefully test the fibers to determine the potential for shrinkage and if the dyes in the carpet are colorfast. This preliminary action before the cleaning services helps SERVPRO techs choose the suitable cleaning agents and applications for the best outcome for the carpet cleaning. The specialized methods SERVPRO techs rely on the most in Falmouth properties include: 

- Bonnet cleaning, which works best on short pile carpets

- Hot water extraction is a cleaning method that works on any carpet type

- Dry cleaning applications are for carpet fibers that have the potential for dye-bleed if exposed to water

- Deluxe precondition and rinse is a cleaning method that assists in restoring carpet fibers in high traffic areas, as seen in the Before Photo

- Showcase premier cleaning is an all-inclusive deep cleaning method that delivers the most thorough level of clean possible in Falmouth properties

SERVPRO Preventative Maintenance Carpet Cleaning in Falmouth Home

A report released by the IICRC states that nearly 80% of the soil in Falmouth carpets is loose dirt. Regular vacuuming can assist in keeping these amounts down and maintain the carpet. For high traffic areas, as in the Before Photo, SERVPRO recommends a regular deep cleaning to get rid of embedded dirt, dust, animal hair, and soils. Spots should be cleaned as soon as they occur on a carpet; however, during deep cleaning jobs, SERVPRO technicians can employ their spot removal methods on most fiber types. A test on the carpet should always get performed before the application of any over-the-counter cleaning method as they can bleach and shrink areas without addressing the stain, which is why it is a good idea to outsource carpet cleaning to a professional restoration services company in Falmouth.

SERVPRO Recommends Regular Cleaning for Falmouth Carpets

In addition to frequent vacuuming and moving around furniture to change traffic patterns in the home, getting a yearly deep cleaning of the carpets in a Falmouth home can assist in the prevention of ground-in soil stains and renew the carpet fibers. When Falmouth property owners wait until the carpet is dingy and shows apparent signs of dirt, the restoration process may not be able to bring the carpet to a "like new" condition.

As seen in the After Photo, SERVPRO technicians deep cleaned the lightly colored Falmouth carpet and moved the table and sofa out of the way to ensure every inch of the carpet received the benefits of the proprietary methods SERVPRO uses.
