Carpet Cleaning Chelsea - Flooded Carpets

Carpet Cleaning Chelsea

Recently I was called to a carpet cleaning job just off the King's Road in Chelsea.  The customer said there had been a small leak and could I give the carpet a quick clean.  Assuming it was a small leak I agreed and attended that afternoon.  When I arrived I quickly realised that the small leak was indeed a full-on flood. Check out our London carpet cleaning website here for a full list of services we provide.

The problem with a situation like this, where a room has been flooded is that you need to ensure that the whole room is fully dried out.  Using a standard two or three vac carpet cleaning machine can remove a significant amount of water but that's simply not enough.  The water will have soaked the backing of the carpet and the underlay.  If it's a wooden floor it will  have often soaked the floorboards.

On a standard carpet cleaning job the aim is to clean the fibers of the carpet while ensuring that the base of the carpet isn't wet.  The standard approach is that a cleaning solution or water is injected into the carpet and extracted before it soaks the carpet base.   If the backing of the carpet is soaked then you will quite often be left with the scenario where the carpets shrink and you are left with a hefty bill for replacing it.  

With this job it was necessary that I passed it on to a company who deal with floods and restoration.  While I could have made the carpets better by extracting as much as possible I wasn't going to be able to solve the problems associated with a flooded room.  The carpets would require lifting and probably replaced once the room had been properly dried out.

As a carpet cleaner in the Chelsea area it's necessary to know when to refuse a job.  In this scenario I advised what I could and couldn't do and moved on to the next job.

Carpet Cleaning London - Choosing the Correct Carpets

Carpet Cleaning London - Which Carpet?

Years of carpet cleaning London has taught me that many people choose completely inappropriate carpets for their homes.  Examples of this are many.  Often people choose what looks best without a thought for how they are going to maintain it.  Choosing the wrong carpet can lead to big problems and can reduce the life-span of your carpet by years!  This can be a costly mistake when you consider the cost of replacing them.

What colour of carpet?

Should I choose a wool carpet or a synthetic carpet?  Obviously there are many variables when making this decision.  For those that have money to burn then having to replace carpets regularly is not an issue.  For most however, we want to get value for money.  If this is the case then avoid some basic errors.  

If your are carpeting an area of high traffic, such as a hallway or a living room where kids play, avoid fitting a cream or white coloured carpet.  It will simply become dirty looking with a period of about six months.  Over this period spillages and things like kids sickness will often prove to be a step to far for your carpet cleaner.  While advancements in stain spotter technology have increased what can be removed it's not guaranteed on some types of stains.  Choosing a darker type carpet with a slight pattern through it, for example, will ensure that any permanent stains will not be as obvious to people.


Should I apply carpet stain protector

The answer to this is yes you should.  However, be aware that it is not necessary to apply protector to a synthetic carpet.  These carpets are basically plastic so it will be a bit of a waste of time.  When it comes to wool carpets then you are protecting the wool fibres form being penetrated by the spillage or whatever.  The protector can give you the time to remove the spillage from the carpet before your wine or whatever gets into the fibres of the carpet and stains them.
