This also prolongs the life of your carpets and soft furnishings.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Q &#8211; How long do the carpets and upholstery take to dry?&#8221; style=&#8221;square&#8221; color=&#8221;green&#8221;]A &#8211; Your carpets and upholstery are usually dry within 6-8 hours after being cleaned. Please note drying times can vary due to carpet type, the soiling of the carpet and room temperature. We recommend leaving windows open with heating on to get your carpets to dry as as quickly as possible.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Q &#8211; What cleaning methods do you offer?&#8221; style=&#8221;square&#8221; color=&#8221;green&#8221;]A -We mainly use hot water (steam) extraction, which is the most thorough cleaning method available for carpet cleaning. We also offer a low-moisture (encapsulation) clean where carpets are dry a lot quicker. This is is mainly used in the commercial sector and on low profile carpets.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Q &#8211; What do I do if there is furniture in the room?&#8221; style=&#8221;square&#8221; color=&#8221;green&#8221;]A &#8211; We ask customers to remove as much furniture as possible from the rooms we are cleaning. We understand this isn&#8217;t always possible so we advise placing smaller pieces of furniture onto beds and sofas. Any furniture that is moved back on to damp carpet will need to be protected with kitchen foil or polystyrene tabs to prevent damage to your carpet or furniture.[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;Q- I live in a 2nd floor flat, is that a problem?&#8221; style=&#8221;square&#8221; color=&#8221;green&#8221;]A &#8211; We can only service ground floor or blocks with lift access due to heavy industrial equipment.
