3 Tips to Finding the Right Carpet Cleaning Service for Your Home, Expectations, and Budget

to tip or not to tipYou understand that a carpet cleaning service is important to not only help protect your carpets and allow them to last as long as possible, thus protecting your investment in them, but also providing a healthier and safer environment for you and your family. In fact, many pollutants get trapped in the stubborn carpet fibers and even the most powerful vacuum cleaner is unable to draw them out.

Some of those pollutants can include pollen, but also bacteria and germs. If you only vacuum and don’t have a professional carpet cleaning service come out to your home at least once a year (twice a year is optimal), if anyone is lying down on the carpet, such as children, rolling around and wrestling, and so on, they are being intimately exposed to those pollutants.

Once you accept the value of carpet cleaning services, here are three tips that will help you find the right one for you. At Royal Interior Cleaning, we certainly would love your trust and business, but more importantly is that you feel comfortable and confident in your decision.

Tip #1: Focus on companies that have positive ratings online.

Search engines and other services provide opportunities for customers to review various businesses. A carpet cleaning company should have at least a fair number of reviews to give you some insight into whether or not they do a good job, their technicians are professional and courteous, and if they are responsive to customer needs. Check out those reviews and only focus your attention on those that have a positive reputation.

Tip #2: You get what you pay for.

If you are trying to save as much money as possible on carpet cleaning services, you will be able to find cheap providers. Unfortunately, what many customers don’t realize is only truck mounted equipment is going to be truly effective to get those stubborn stains and bacteria and germs out of the carpet. If you want to go cheap, cheap is what you’ll get.

Tip #3: Determine the company’s responsiveness to you.

When you contact the company, ask to speak to somebody directly so you can ask a few pointed questions. Are they responsive? Do they get back to you within a reasonable amount of time? If you take days or weeks for a return phone call, what does that say about the company itself?
