Carpet Cleaning

Please feel free to ask us for recommendations for cleaning companies certified by the “CRI” – Carpet & Rug Institute. They are required to conform to the CRI’s recommendations, and cannot go over a pH of 10 when using stain & soil treatments. There are ONLY a handful of these companies in the Pinellas County area!

These days, there is more variety in carpet than ever before. Several factors determine the means in which a particular carpet should be cleaned, ie. fiber types, construction (loop vs. cut), pile weights, density, etc., along with whether the carpet is “soiled” or “stained” (2 completely separate issues).  Customers like yourself, have a big advantage in receiving effective cleaning professional’s knowledge of the installed product.  For example, though some companies use an abrasive cleaning system, soil & stain treatments do not hold up well against abrasion, which can scrape off the finish and leave the carpet fibers vulnerable.

Carpet must be professionally cleaned by one of these CRI certified cleaning companies, every 12 to 18 months, in order for any claim to be valid and any warranty to be honored. These cleaning companies are well recognized by major U.S. carpet manufacturers, ie. Shaw, Mohawk, & Beaulieu.

Our customers can get a list of these companies upon request, by simply contacting us.
