If you are one of the many pet owners, you probably understand the importance of a good carpet cleaning company to take care of carpets that smell a little too much like you your pet. Although pets, including dogs and cats are an important part of our lives, homes that smell like these pets are not places we want to invite visitors. Many carpet cleaning companies, though, have the resources to help your home look and smeller cleaner without you having to get rid of your pets.
From the time they are puppies or kittens, dogs and cats can cause a stain and odor problem. Stains and odors can be caused by a puppy or kitten that is not yet trained to use a liter box or to go outside when it has to use the bathroom. Your carpet can have a bad smell because your pet came in from outside wet, and now the carpet smells like wet dog or cat.
Stains to your carpet might even be caused by your pet's dog or cat food. Other stains to carpets and odors in the air can also be part of being a pet owner. Yet these stains do not have to stay there. Many carpet cleaning companies have the resources to properly clean your carpets.
When you are a pet owner, even if the carpet looks clean, that does not mean the carpet really is clean. Stains that can be seen on the surface are only the beginning of the stain problem. The true stain problem might penetrate over three times as far as can be seen. Odors caused by pet often stay behind even after the stain is gone.
For example, pet urine will not just stay on the carpet.
It will go through the carpet fibers and harm the flooring materials under the carpet. When this happens, even as the floor is scrubbed and scrubbed by the pet owner, the odor may continue to be there. Even as basic carpet cleaning will not get rid of the smell. Many carpet cleaning companies, though, have special chemicals and supplies that can get rid of the odors and the stains caused by your pets.
Carpet cleaning companies will generally start with a rinsing of the carpet to remove the bulk of the urine crystals. They may also use a heavy duty pet deodorizer application to help rid the carpet of the smell. Many carpet cleaning companies also use Pet Urine Removal Treatment (P.U.R.T.) which has shown excellent results in removing even really bad urine damage.
If the damage is really bad, the carpet cleaning company may even have to remove part of the carpet to get under it to treat the source of the odor. Although shampoo and other supplies used specifically for treating pet odors and stains are probably the only thing that is going to save pet owners from the pain of stained and smelly carpets, it is also going to cost pet owners more that a general carpet cleaning. This service can be up to twice as expensive as a general carpet cleaning by the same carpet cleaning company. This can be true although rates may differ when you are residing in a big city like Charlotte where there are many companies to choose from. The stiff competition may bring down the cost. You can be sure however that the elimination of the stains and odors can be well worth the added cost for a pet owner.
