Carpet steam cleaning services
Carpet steam cleaning is also referred to as carpet cleaning. This is an important commercial cleaning task that should be conducted on a regular basis. Carpet steam cleaning is usually conducted as part of an office cleaning service.
Our methods and why to leave carpet cleaning to us
The method used to steam clean a carpet depends on several factors which should be considered when selecting the correct cleaning approach for each carpet:
- The materials used to produce the carpet
- The amount of foot traffic
- The nature of the business
Brilliant Office Cleaning employs the correct carpet steam cleaning technique based on the above factors. During the site inspection we recommend the best steam cleaning process. The following are the most frequent carpet steam cleaning methods that we employ:
The hot water extraction method
This is the most frequent carpet steam cleaning method. This involves a series of steps. Initially the carpet is thoroughly vacuumed to eliminate surface dirt. A cleaning solution is then applied to the carpet fibres to release embedded dirt and stains. Following this, hot water mixed with eco-friendly cleaning detergents is injected under pressure into the carpet to agitate the fibres and remove dirt and grime. Finally, a robust vacuum extracts the water and chemicals, and the carpet is allowed to dry.
After completion of this process, the carpet will be inspected by our skilled experts to ensure an excellent result. Sometimes, built-up stains will require additional special treatment. In this case, the Brilliant Office Cleaning team will apply special techniques, as required, to achieve the best result.
Dry carpet cleaning
Utilises cleaning compounds or powders using a low-moisture method. These compounds are evenly spread over the carpet, and then worked into the fibres with a machine. Dirt, grease and other contaminants are absorbed from the carpet. After this cleaning process, these compounds are vacuumed away leaving behind a dry carpet.
Our experienced technicians carefully apply the cleaning compound over the carpet utilising a machine to work it into the fibres. Once the compound has been left for a designated period, our team meticulously vacuums the carpet to eliminate the compound and any accumulated dirt and grime, leaving your carpet fresh and ready for use.
Stain Protection
The process of stain protection entails applying a coating to the carpet fibres to establish a shield that repels liquids, and prevents stains from deeply penetrating the carpet. This protective layer simplifies the cleaning of spills, and prevents them from resulting in stains.
Following a carpet cleaning using either hot water extraction or dry-cleaning technique, our technicians administer a stain protection treatment. The treatment is evenly sprayed onto the carpet, and allowed to dry. This creates a barrier that aids in repelling liquids and stains. With this stain protection, you can rest assured that your carpet is better equipped to handle spills and other accidents.

Advantages of Carpet Steam Cleaning

Tough Stain Removal
The combination of water and cleaning solutions in steam cleaning works wonders in breaking down and eliminating stubborn stains from carpets caused by spills, pet mishaps, and heavy foot traffic.
Fresh Odour
In addition to getting rid of dirt and stains, steam cleaning also helps to neutralise odours trapped within the carpet fibres. This leaves your carpets looking clean and smelling fresh and inviting.
