How often should i have my soft furnishings cleaned?

Most manufacturers recommend the wet extraction method as the best way to clean your carpets and upholstery, this should be done every 12 months to 18 months. Regular vacuuming with an upright cleaner are recommended for between cleans weekly.

I’ve had other companies quote and its cheaper than yours, why is this?

unfortunately not all cleaning companies are the same, simply we all do things differently. We follow strict procedures for every job and as our reputation matters to us and we do our up most to ensure 100% customer satisfaction. Our prices are based on the workmanship and quality we put into every job and the customer service you receive. We have invested in training, insurances and have some of the most powerful and up to date equipment within Shropshire. There are some companies who don’t bother with any of the above, they are simply as the saying goes “splash and dash” companies. If you have a problem after they’ve ruined your carpets, many wont return back leaving you to pick up the bill. JL carpet cleaning quote only one price (based on the home survey) There are no hidden charges or add on’s.

What about stains?

carpets go through a rough time, so its pretty common to get the odd spot and stain on a carpet. Spots or unknown marks are usually where dirt has been attracted to something stick or residual, these are usually simply to remove. Staining were colour has been added to the carpet can be much harder to remove. Its important to understand that whilst we have removed countless stains before there’s never a guarantee that the stain can be removed. Sometimes removal may cause bleaching of the carpet fibre. We always recommend not using under the sink products on stains as these can “lock in” the stain with permanent effect. Check out our page on DIY stain removal.

My carpet after it was last cleaned become dirty quickly, why?

If you previously had a carpet cleaned, either using hire equipment or using another company and it has become dirty much quicker than expected this is down to residues from cleaning detergents being left in the carpet. The residues from cleaning weren’t rinsed out of the carpet thus attracting dirt. For more information on this check out our page on DIY carpet cleaning.  JL carpet cleaning use free rinsing Eco friendly products, these break the bond between dirt and fibre allowing them to be rinsed away with water, leaving your carpet healthy, fresh and most importantly dirt free

What areas do you cover?

Quoting over the phone?

Though we appreciate you may need a quote over the phone, for comparison etc. It is very hard for us to give prices over the phone so please don’t be offended. It is sometimes possible to give you an estimate based on your room sizes. We prefer to come and give you a free home survey/quotation.

Carpet 7 point process

1. Pre-Survey

This is carried out on all carpets that will be potentially cleaned. This is for fibre identification, to check for existing damage, potential problems and in some cases, cleaning limitations. The results will be fully discussed with the customer before any work is carried out

2. Pre-Clean Vacuuming

Around 80-85% of soiling in carpets is dry particulate dust/grit type soiling. The first important stage of all cleaning processes is to remove as much dry soiling as possible before wetting the carpet. All carpets are pre-vacuumed with a heavy-duty commercial grade vacuum cleaner.

3. Spotting & Pre-Spray

Some carpets may have spots and stains that need separate attention before the carpet is pre-sprayed. After these have been treated the carpet will be pre-sprayed with a product appropriate to the soiling and fibre type.

4. Agitation

Done by a machine, this is used to open the carpet pile and works the cleaning solution into the carpet fibres allowing it to work on the deeper down soils and preparing the carpet for rinse extraction. Agitation is a very important part of the cleaning process and commonly skipped by cleaning companies.

5. Rinse extraction

Solution is jetted into the carpet at over 110degrees C and over 250psi. The wand pass then extracts the solution and soiling and is lifted out by our truck mounted cleaning system* and wastewater is recovered back into our vehicle. This leaves your carpets smelling fresh and free from cleaning solutions. * dependant on access

6. Drying

Our extraction equipment will typically leave your carpets touch dry within a few hours, but as part of the service and for extra convenience, we use our air movers which will help dry the carpets fast if required.

7. Time to say goodbye

Before leaving you, your carpet will receive a final groom (if required) to leave the pile upright, fluffy and looking it’s best. Finally, we’ll check you’re happy.

5. Rinse extraction
