Carpet Cleaning For Homes With Pets

Dakota Floor Restoration is a well-reputed carpet cleaning and hard surface floor restoration company. Our service areas include Sioux Falls and all of Southeastern South Dakota. Being a family-owned business, we pride themselves on doing hard work and treating our customers the right way. One of the our specialties is cleaning up the messes that pets might leave in carpeting. The best way to eliminate pet dander, pet stains and pet odors from carpeting is to have carpeting cleaned professionally.

Improperly cleaned pet accident spots can have a more drastic impact on carpets than people realize. Over time pet urine will degrade fibers and even ruin the carpet backing and padding. These spots need to be properly cleaned up.

Our experienced professionals use time-tested methods to clean up pet accidents, pet debris, and other deeply embedded contaminants and allergens from carpeting. Dakota Flore Restoration uses a combination of hot water extraction and safe rotary brush action to clean carpets as far down as the backing. A special pet urine cleaner and odorcide are also used during this process.

Once finished with the carpet cleaning, we will conduct a thorough inspection to ensure that all traces of pet urine have been removed by using a blacklight. The finished carpet will not only look better, but it will smell better. Furthermore, our carpet cleaning methods are proven to be safe for all types of carpet fibers. 

Dakota Floor Restoration can also clean up hard floor surfaces after pets have made a mess of them, including tough to clean concrete flooring. When such messes occur, they use enzymatic cleaners and odorcides, among other agents, to help eliminate unsightly stains and foul smells.

Steam Cleaning Carpets Tips, Tricks & Secrets

Most carpets are stain-resistant, meaning that the manufacturer has treated them to reduce staining. However, no carpet is stain-proof. Over time, the carpet’s fibers trap dirt, oils and bacteria, which can discolor the material and cause unpleasant odors and stains. Use a few tips, tricks and secrets to steam clean your carpets, as needed, and then keep them cleaner longer with some simple suggestions for the whole family.

Tips

Test a hidden area of your carpet, such as inside a closet, before using an extra-strength or homemade steam-cleaning product to make sure that it does not burn the carpet or lift the color. Steam cleaning is hard work. There’s a lot of back and forth movement and bending; you’ll also be lifting and carrying buckets to empty and refill the dirty and clean water -- don’t forget to stretch before, during and after this physically demanding chore. Contact the manufacturer of your steam cleaner to ask for recommended or non-chemical cleaning solutions. If you venture out on your own and use homemade concoctions or non-recommended solutions, they could void the cleaner's warranty.

Tricks

Loose dirt and grime hides in carpeting. Vacuum the floors before you set to work with the steam cleaner. By running the vacuum cleaner slowly and repeatedly over one area at a time, you will reduce the amount of dirt or “mud” pushed through the carpet by the steam cleaning process. As a metter of course, blot stains as they happen; club soda or a mixture of one part white vinegar with three parts water remove colorful stains, such as red wine, pop and juice.

Secrets

Sometimes the simplest cleaning solutions are right under your nose -- or, in this case, right out of the tap or inside of the kitchen cupboard. Because steam already reduces or destroys most bacteria, pure water may be all you require to freshen your rugs. Use baking soda to remove odors and stains: dissolve 1-tsp baking soda in a cup of water to pour on pet stains or other smelly messes before steam cleaning. Don’t steam clean on humid summer days or cold winter days. On warm, dry days, you will be able to dry the carpeting and air out the space. This avoids an overly steamy home by opening windows.

Keeping Your Carpets Clean

Just as there are many tips, tricks and secrets for steam cleaning carpets, there are also lots of ideas and ways to keep them clean longer. The longer your carpets stay clean, the less often you will have to drag out the steam cleaner. Set doormats at every entryway and ensure that everyone wipes by hanging a friendly -- or cheesy -- sign as a reminder; “Please be Sweeties and Wipe Your Feeties.” Even if family members occasionally forget to wipe, the mats will catch some of the dirt as they walk over them. Vacuum thoroughly at least twice a week by running a strong-suction vacuum cleaner with a rotating power head over the floors. Have all family members remove their shoes at the door. You can keep slippers available at the door for everyone, including guests.
