1. How soon can I walk on it?
Keep pets,
children and regular traffic off of the carpet for a period of 6
hours. The homeowner may use the carpet lightly immediately after
cleaning by wearing white socks. Wait 24 hours before removing
Styrofoam blocks and foil tabs that are put in place to protect the
furniture and carpet. Some carpets may still feel slightly damp for
up to 18 hours depending on carpet and soiling conditions. This is
normal and will not cause any problems.

3. Can you clean carpet or rugs over hardwood
floors?
Yes, we have
our system set up where the backing of the carpet or rug is not
saturated, therefore no problem with wood floors underneath. No
problem with edges either, our rinse does not affect hardwood
floors. Oriental rugs and all woven rugs should be cleaned in-plant.

4. Do you clean …
Berber
Absolutely, Berber is a weave, not a particular type of fiber.
Berber is simply a type of loop construction that my come in
olefin, nylon, wool or a blend. Berber requires a more thorough
cleaning than other carpets because the "flushing" action needs
to take place to get under, around and through the loops. Other
companies that are not as thorough as we are have a lot of
problems with Berber because they leave soil behind that "wicks"
back to the service.
Sisal, Seagrass, Grass
Yes,
dry-clean only, unless last resort spot cleaning. Spot cleaning
and extraction can cause discoloration or water rings on sisal.
Wool
Yes, we
have special products that we use for wool. We use lower
pressure, lower temperature and take special drying precautions
for cleaning wool.
5. What about specialty
fabrics, such as:
Haitian Cotton

have special Haitian cotton cleaner, or we can dry-clean it.
