Carpet and Rug drying times in the winter

People are often concerned about drying times during the winter, we can now reasure all of our customers that this need not be a concern any more.

We employ three different methods when we clean carpets, dry cleaning using micro sponges will enable the carpet or rug to be dry almost instantly, micro sponges are an effective and very safe way of cleaning and often used on sea-grass or fine rugs with silk content.

Low moisture cleaning is a very effective way to clean man made low profile carpet. This is often found in commercial premises or rental properties. A thorough vacuum to begin with is important, followed by a liberal application of micro splitting solution, a Charley or cotton bonnet pad is then used in conjunction with a rotary machine, working across the weft and warp, soils and stains are effectively removed, with carpets drying within one hour.

Using an extraction system is the most popular carpet cleaning method, although the ability of machines differ greatly. After pre-vacuuming, carpets will then receive an application of micro splitting solution, this is agitated using a contra rotating brush machine. Suspended soils are then removed with a hot water rinsing system, don’t forget, the drier the carpet, the more soil removal!  Drying times can be reduced by using a turbo drier,  although when we use our Hydramaster van mounted system with high water lift and moderate psi, the drying time is one hour, even if it is a cold and rainy day.

Our services include anti static treatments, allergy treatments, spot and stain treatments, using safe toxin free solutions. We are operating in South London, Kent, Sussex and Surrey.
