Carpet Cleaning Lexington

How Long to Dry?

DID YOU KNOW that when you have your carpet professionally cleaned it can take as little as one hour to dry — and, according to some reports, as long as THREE DAYS to dry?

According to the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification, or IICRC, the certifying body for professional carpet cleaners, carpet should take about six to eight hours to dry, and never longer than 24 hours to dry because, after that amount of time, microbial growth (like mold and mildew) can begin to grow.

No one wants that!

This is why you need a complete carpet cleaning system that guarantees your carpet is dry fast. How fast? It depends on the carpet type you have and also the weather conditions the day you have your carpet cleaned.

Sad to say, some experience really long drying times when they have their carpet cleaned. Who knows why this happens, except that it never should happen!

One thing is for sure, having your carpet cleaned should be a pleasant experience and after it is clean, you should be able to get back onto the carpet and back to a normal family routine quickly. Some companies don’t have the powerful cleaning machines necessary for doing the best work, and some don’t have the training they should.

When you have your carpet cleaned, or your furniture or hard floors like wood, granite, marble, and all the different surfaces you may have, you deserve complete satisfaction and the best cleaning you will ever see.

Remember: Clean and dry – that’s the goal!

I’m a repeat customer with them and again they met my expectations! I think one reason is they’re attention to detail as well as not taking advantage of me as a senior citizen.. They advised me what they thought and I totally agreed instead of charging me for more than I needed. Highly recommend for homes in the Andover area. Will call them again!

Amazing work!! Their pricing was fair, their expertise on the matter was very obvious, and the efficiency of their work is unmatched! They were able to get me an appointment the day after calling, and seeing the carpet after their work was the difference between night and day. I moved out of an apartment with old 60’s carpeting, so I am being totally honest when I say I was astounded by how nice the end-product was. I also greatly appreciated the simplicity of the process and the consistent communication. If you need your carpeting cleaned, especially for move-out, these are your guys! I wiIl definitely work with them again if I ever need professional carpet cleaning in Lexington!! 👍
