When you are cleaning, focus the majority of your attention on the spots where people are sitting like in front of the couch. These are typically the spots where you will find the most dirt, grime and bacteria when cleaning. Run over these areas at least three times when you are vacuuming.

Some carpets don't react well to harsh cleaning chemicals, even from professionals. You need a cleaning service that is going to use the right products. For example, if your carpet is wool or silk, harsh commercial cleaning processes can ruin it. Leave carpet cleaning to the professionals in order to make sure the job gets done right.

Try to avoid using the cheap carpet clearners that you can buy at your local discount stores. These tend to cause more damage to your carpets, which will lead to you having to replace it sooner than you would otherwise. If you do not want to spend thousands on carpeting every few years you should definitely avoid these machines.

Always make sure you vacuum a carpet before you use a machine to clean your carpet. If you do not, costing you quite a bit of money, you could end up breaking the machine. Make sure you vacuum before you have professional carpet cleaners work in your home, also.
+
Ask the carpet cleaning company if they vacuum before they start the cleaning process. There is a huge difference in the outcome of the job depending on this factor. If they tell you that they don't, you should call someone else. You want the job to get done as effectively as possible.
  
Ask any company that you contact about carpet cleaning if they have special chemicals for your high traffic areas. In most cases your carpet will be quite clean in every area other than these, so you will likely only need the powerful stuff to be used here. If they do not have such a service you should consider using a different company.
+
Do not forget to ask what they can do for your upholstery if you are hiring a carpet cleaning professional. Many carpet cleaning companies can also help you to get stains, grime and dirt out of your couch or love seat. Adding in this service when you are already getting your carpets clean costs a minimal amount of money, and it can make all the difference in the appearance of your home.

While waiting for a professional cleaning, keep carpet stain removers nearby to immediately treat difficult stains such as red wine and coffee. Apply the solution directly onto the stain, making sure not to rub it in, and then allow it to sit for five minutes. Then spray it using a clockwise pattern for the most useful results.
+
Make sure any company you hire to clean your carpets is insured. Accidents can and do happen. For this reason, you want to make sure your home and belongings are covered in case something unexpected happens. It never hurts to ask and make sure, though most legitimate companies are insured.
  
Invest in a high-end vacuum. Most vacuums are very weak and cannot do what is necessary to remove dirt, fur and dander from your carpets. While they can be very expensive, the money you will save in not having to replace your carpets as frequently will cause the vacuum to pay for itself.
+
A lot of carpet cleaning businesses have technicians that try to work with an upsell. This means that they initially provide you with a price that's very low to get your business but will then upsell extra services which a lot of clients assume are basic. All those additional products can end up costing you big time.

You can use a wet carpet cleaner, such as a steamer or wet chemicals, if you have carpet using man-made fibers. You have to use dry chemicals if it's natural fibers.
+
Always ask a potential cleaning company how long they have been operational. Obviously, it is better to select a company that has some level of experience cleaning carpets. You will be able to check with former customers to gauge their level of satisfaction with the company, although not only are they more likely to know what they are doing.
  
If you want to hire a professional carpet cleaner, do some background research on the different cleaners you are interested in. If any complaints have been filed against this professional, find a cleaner who is a member of different professional organizations and contact your local business bureau to find out.

Remember, simply because you saw an advertisement for a cleaning company that quoted one particular fee, that doesn't mean that you will get that deal. Call the company first and discuss pricing. They may have "fine print" built into their offer, and your home might not qualify for the low rate. Always know what you are getting into.
  
Be creative when you are working to soak up a stain. But the spot is still moist, you can get try to use pressure overnight to get more of the stain up, if you have already tried using paper towels. Just place an absorbant material over the spot and put books on top of it. This will ensure that you get the most up that is possible.
+
Ensure that the technicians are well-skilled in the cleaning process, before hiring a carpet cleaning company. It is important that the technicians know how to operate the equipment well enough and they are truly able to remove tough stains. If you're in doubt, avoid hiring a company just to be on the safe side.
  
When you are looking for a carpet cleaning service, get names of clients who had used their service. Getting reviews from these clients will give you an idea of the service quality of this company. Move on to another company if these clients have many things about the company that they do not like.
