Who is the best carpet cleaning company or carpet cleaner in Utah?

Who is the best carpet cleaning company or carpet cleaner in Utah? This a great question and I will do my best to answer it. First, if you have a carpet cleaner you like and trust stick with him or her. If its not broke don't fix it. But here are some questions you can ask if your looking for a carpet cleaning company in Utah.

1. Trust: Ask your friend, family and neighbors who they use for carpet cleaning and are they happy? Next read reviews and call around and ask questions. What questions do I ask? I will tell you how to screen a carpet cleaning company in Utah and what questions to ask.

2 Experience: How long has the carpet cleaning company been in business? But more important how long has the carpet cleaner they will be sending to your home been cleaning carpets? This is crucial because it takes time to learn the correct way to clean carpets. Isn't just a menial task that anyone can do? Actually your carpet cleaner is dealing with one of your most expensive purchases (after your home and vehicles) and to have a carpet cleaner come to your home and ruin your investment, and it is an investment, is just sad but it happens every day. This mostly happens because some carpet cleaning companies do not understand the science and chemistry of carpet cleaning which brings me to my next point.

3. Education: I believe this is the most important question to ask, Why? Because really great carpet cleaning companies spend a lot of time and money to go to school to learn the right way to clean carpets. The certification you are looking for is the IICRC The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification. Ask on the phone if the carpet cleaning company and carpet cleaner coming to your home is certified by the IICRC.

4. Systems: Some carpet cleaning companies carry 1 or 2 products to do all their carpet cleaning. What if its wool their cleaning and their 1 product has a Ph of 12 and you are never supposed to put a Ph above 8.5 on wool. Well guess what? They just ruined your expensive wool carpet. Lets say you've spilled grease on your carpet. Do they carry a safe solvent made from citrus or do their solvents have carcinogens in them? Or do they just leave your home because that's the best they can do with what they have. Take a walk out to the van is it leaking oil on your driveway? When was the last time their truck-mount was serviced, it should be displayed on the truck-mount.

5. Guarantee: Why would you choose a carpet cleaning company or any company that does not give a 100% money back guarantee? This tells me that they are not confident about their service and not a very good company.

These are the 5 things to look for in a carpet cleaning company in Utah. I hope this helps you find your carpet cleaning superhero, he or she will become an important part of your maintenance team.
