What are The Risks Of DIY Carpet Cleaning at home?

November 3 2017

There is something great about having fresh and clean carpets in our homes. It makes us feel better & provides our guests a great reception. Cleaning them on your own may have been an idea that you might have considered before – after all, there’re so many advertisings saying how you can rent ‘professional’ machines & the outcomes look really superb. Great! You may think, I will get them done at the weekend & save big money!

So you move to your nearest DIY store and rent a machine with carpet cleaning agents, and ready for action. After an entire day of wiping away, filling up, emptying, etc – will you be amazed with the outcomes?

The honest answer will be a big “No”. Occasional DIY cleaning may be all right but regularly cleaning your carpet on your mayn’t be a good idea. A small carpet cleaning machine from a hardware store has to be small for a reason. If it is too big you won’t be able to lift it, hence use it properly. Now being so small means that there is a limit on power.

Basically the bigger the machine the heavier it gets – due to much bigger internal motors and pumps for example, it will have more power, allowing much better results to be had. Let’s take this further. As the power increases even more (and again, along with the weight and size of the machine) the better it will perform in the worst conditions. There will be more vacuum, more heat and more water pressure leaving carpets much cleaner, brighter and dryer. But the question is can you use a big machine to great effect? You must know by now that Carpet Cleaning is not an easy task for your residence in Geelong!

What are the hidden dangers of a DIY carpet cleaning in Geelong?

Well, they are certainly present, that is for certain, and we occasionally notice the result – and rectify problems usually experienced with them. Here I’ll list all of them – and if you’ve ever tried a DIY method before you must have observed one of them – even all of them.

Poor cleaning result because of lack of power from the machine
Damp carpets for days prompting bad odours
Mould accumulation because of inappropriate cleaning endeavours
Delaminated carpet sourced by over wetting
