Steam Cleaning
Our steam cleaning process uses high-temperature water vapor to deep-clean carpets at 230F, effectively removing embedded dirt, allergens, and bacteria. This method achieves 98% stain removal while maintaining wool fiber integrity through controlled moisture application. Ideal for high-traffic areas requiring thorough sanitization without chemical residue.
Dry Cleaning
Dry compound cleaning employs biodegradable solvents that encapsulate dirt particles for vacuum removal. This 30-minute process requires no drying time, making it perfect for commercial environments needing immediate carpet usability. Our VLM (Very Low Moisture) system preserves carpet backing materials while achieving hospital-grade cleanliness standards.
Stain Removal
Specialized enzymatic cleaners target protein-based stains from food, pets, and beverages. Our two-phase treatment system first neutralizes contaminants then lifts discoloration using pH-balanced solutions. For aged stains, we employ micro-abrasion techniques that restore carpet appearance without fiber damage, maintaining manufacturer warranties.
Encapsulation Cleaning
Our polymer-based encapsulation solution crystallizes dirt particles for easy vacuum extraction. This weekly maintenance method extends time between deep cleans by 40% while maintaining commercial carpet appearance standards. The non-sticky residue prevents rapid re-soiling, making it ideal for hotel corridors and office spaces.
Odor Elimination
Our OSHA-compliant odor removal system combines activated oxygen treatment with HEPA air filtration. This three-stage process eliminates bacteria causing persistent smells from pets, smoke, or water damage. Thermal fogging ensures complete coverage of carpet pile and underlay, achieving 99.9% microbial reduction in treated areas.

Questions
What makes wool carpet cleaning different from regular carpet care?
Wool requires pH-neutral cleaners and temperature-controlled methods to prevent fiber shrinkage and dye bleeding. Our technicians use specialized tools that maintain wool's natural lanolin while removing embedded particulates.
How often should wool carpets be professionally cleaned?
We recommend deep cleaning every 12-18 months for residential carpets and quarterly maintenance for commercial spaces. High-traffic areas may need bi-monthly treatments to preserve appearance and hygiene.
Do you guarantee stain removal?
While we achieve 98% stain removal success, some permanent dyes and bleach damage cannot be reversed. We provide pre-treatment assessments outlining realistic outcomes for each stain type.
Are your cleaning methods safe for children and pets?
All our solutions meet EPA safety standards and are certified hypoallergenic. We use food-grade enzymes for organic matter removal and provide MSDS documentation upon request for complete transparency.
How long does carpet take to dry after cleaning?
Steam cleaned carpets dry in 4-6 hours using our high-efficiency extraction equipment. Dry cleaning methods allow immediate use, while encapsulation treatments require 2 hours for crystallization before vacuuming.
Can you restore water-damaged carpets?
Our IICRC-certified technicians employ industrial dehumidification systems that restore water-damaged carpets within 72 hours. We use thermal imaging to detect hidden moisture and antimicrobial treatments to prevent mold growth.
