After We Leave

Special Aftercare Information

Please remember that not all stains/spots/odors are guaranteed to be removed due to the depth of contamination. Also for several days after cleaning you may notice an elevated odor due to higher humidity levels.
Please leave your plastic “tabs” and “blocks” under your furniture for 48 hours after cleaning.
Only light to no traffic on the carpet.
Please use extreme caution when walking from the damp carpet to any hard surface area, it can be very slippery.

Dry Time

We do everything to speed dry the carpet while we’re there.
After we leave it is up to you!

Depending on how soiled your carpets are will be the determining factor on how long the carpet will stay damp. The equipment we use will decrease the dry time by more than 75%, with other carpet cleaners it can take up to 24 hours. The average dry time with our cleaning system is 2 to 8 hours with adequate ventilation. You will need to leave the windows cracked/open &/or the fans on &/or central air on. If you have central air please make sure you program it to be on until the carpet is dry. Not having adequate ventilation will result in a wet carpet that can create a musty smell of mildew-causing bacteria (like when you leave your clothes in the washing machine overnight). Once your carpets develop the musty smell of mildew-causing bacteria, it’s hard to remove.

Included with all cleaning packages: To help your carpet dry faster we use the Dri-Eaz Dri-Pod Floor Dryer. The Dri-Pod accelerates drying by pulling warm, dry air from above and directing it down through a louvered patented grill in a high-velocity 360° pattern across the entire floor. Airflow is directed up to 10 feet across in all directions, speed drying a large area. Talk about efficiency – we set up the Dri-Pod in one room while we move on to the next!
