Scheduling a professional carpet cleaning is an excellent step toward a healthier, fresher home. To ensure you get the most out of your appointment and help the process go smoothly, there are a few simple things you can do before your technician arrives.

1. Clear the Clutter

Remove small items from the floor in the rooms being cleaned. This includes toys, shoes, pet beds, magazines, and floor lamps. Clearing the area allows the technician to focus entirely on cleaning rather than navigating around obstacles.

2. Relocate Small Furniture

While technicians can often clean around large, heavy furniture like beds and entertainment centers, it is best to move light furniture out of the room. Chairs, small tables, ottomans, and plants should be temporarily relocated to areas not being serviced.

3. Secure Fragile Items

If you have large furniture that will remain in the room, remove any breakable items such as vases, picture frames, or lamps from the tops of those pieces. Vibrations from the equipment or accidental bumps could pose a risk to fragile decor.

4. Note Areas of Concern

Take a walk through your home and note any specific spots, spills, or high-traffic areas you want to point out. Letting your technician know what caused a particular spot (like a pet accident or a spilled beverage) helps them choose the right specialized treatment.

5. Secure Pets and Keep Children Clear

Having strangers and equipment in the house can be stressful for animals and presents safety hazards. For their comfort and safety, it is required to secure pets in a separate room, a crate, or the backyard during the appointment. Please keep children and pets away from the areas being cleaned and follow the technician's specific instructions regarding safe re-entry times after the service is complete.
