FINDING COMMERCIAL CARPET CLEANING THAT DELIVERS RESULTS & VALUE
You and your facility deserve commercial carpet cleaners that will deliver both results AND value. Clean carpeting impacts the overall image of your facility.
Not to mention, carpet is a costly building asset that you don’t want just anyone cleaning. How terrible would it be to have cleaned carpets in worse shape than before?
Whether you are just starting the search for the right professional carpet cleaning company for your facility or you have already gone through other carpet cleaners that didn’t deliver the results they promised, you can arm yourself with the information and tools to make finding the right commercial carpet cleaning service for you a little easier.
You can get quality, value and customized service IF you know where to look and how to qualify the many, many companies out there. What important elements should you be on alert for when shopping prospective commercial carpet cleaning companies?
EXPECT MODERN, WELL-MAINTAINED COMMERCIAL CARPET CLEANING EQUIPMENT
As the business of carpet cleaning has made strides in technology, so should your carpet cleaning company.
The latest equipment is leaner, greener and cleaner. The most modern carpet cleaning technologies do the job more effectively, with reduced chemicals and resources and are often faster and cheaper owing to their efficiencies.
And they are even easier on carpets while cleaning better getting you a much better chance of getting more years of usable service from your existing carpeting.
Old, less effective equipment can be hard on your carpets while not cleaning them to the level they could be. If a prospective carpet cleaning company isn’t using the newer, better technology, you are getting shortchanged on results and value.
SAY NO TO BONNET CLEANING
If a prospective carpet cleaning company sings the praises of their Bonnet cleaning, walk away.
Not only is Bonnet cleaning a dated, ineffective carpet cleaning method, it is hard on carpets and can even void your carpet’s manufacturer’s warranty.
As noted above, higher tech carpet cleaning methods like truck mounted hot water extraction and dry encapsulation carpet cleaning have become the gold standard and offer a much deeper, dryer and safer clean.
With Bonnet carpet cleaning, dirt, grit and contaminants are circulated on your carpet’s surface rather than pulled from carpets.
With high speeds and too much friction, Bonnet carpet cleaning is unnecessarily aggressive and abrasive.
At high speeds, Bonnet machines can even melt and damage carpet fibers. This is why most manufacturers advise against Bonnet cleaning.
DON’T LET A CARPET CLEANER’S PEOPLE PROBLEMS BECOME YOUR PROBLEM
Whether you like it or not, if a commercial carpet cleaning company has people problems, they are likely to become your problems too.
First, businesses that take short cuts with their employees probably take shortcuts in other places, places that can have an impact on your service and overall value.
Second, shortcuts in hiring, screening and training mean that the people working in your facility, on your costly building asset, might do more harm than good.
Carpet cleaning requires people to enter your facility, determine your needs, quote pricing, identify stains and prescribe removal processes, assess the current condition of your carpet and any precautions to avoid wear and tear.
All of this requires trained technicians. People are the very foundation of any service business, carpet cleaning is no different.
TRAINED TECHNICIANS MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE IN RESULTS
New advances in commercial carpet cleaning require true technicians to achieve the best results.
Don’t partner with carpet cleaners who fail to exhibit a high degree of professionalism about their people and processes.
Carpet cleaning is more efficient than ever, but to get the best result, newer carpet cleaning technologies must be implemented by knowledgeable, experienced people.
Trained technicians know how to identify stains, match removal products, and work with you on a long-term carpet appearance management plan.
PROFESSIONALISM IS PARAMOUNT
Professionalism must extend to every aspect of a business.
How do you identify whether a commercial carpet cleaning company operates professionally?
Do they offer clear, straightforward pricing? Are their people trained and well equipped?
Are employees uniformed? Are their machines and trucks clean and well maintained?
NO ONE SIZE FITS ALL SOLUTIONS
Don’t let a prospective carpet cleaning company sell you on a one size fits all solution.
Your building has unique traffic patterns, unique wear, unique carpet types and unique budgets.
The best companies tailor solutions specifically to your needs, often at the same price as less capable competitors.
