Don't Rip-up Before You Clean the Carpet

carpet cleaning before and after
Home remodeling, tips and cheap savings.
Having carpets in your home is almost a luxury. With our demanding lives, most people tend to look for the easy way out. One of them being the replacement of carpets to something more manageable, but ripping out / remodeling is very costly! What we don’t realized is that a professional rug cleaner can make the carpets look like new again!
I am one of those guilty people who have been against carpets due having to shampoo them myself. You cannot imagine the stains and dirt our kids put on the carpet. We have seen pink Play Dolh, foot prints and marker stains. We don’t have a pet, but one would think we do if they saw our carpets covered with hair. And I didn't realized, but my hair shed too. One day, I decided to give the carpet another chance before I personally rip-it-up myself. I looked for carpet cleaners and was quickly turned on to Green Choice. Given SO being a Environmental guy, and all the green living we are constantly being pressured with, I definitely had the approval to move forward.

Look at the before and after! I like that Green choice, stands by their service, with 100% Customer Service Guarantee. They have locations within the major cities and offer free pick-up and delivery. Their schedules are flexible and available on the weekends too. Have you ever call a carpet cleaner guy? Most of them keep 8-1 pm schedule and think everyone is home waiting for them to show-up. If you need the same day service, nearly 100% of the time Green Choice can provide without the additional charges!

The feature I like best is that they are Environmentally Safe. Green Choice is an ethical cleaning service, and uses 100% natural cleaning agents that are safe for kids and pets. The advanced cleaning methods include the latest technology, and green enzyme-based carpet cleaners. The stains are removed permanently, and your carpet will look and stay looking like new, like the photos of my carpet before and after here. I am so happy with the way my carpet looks after it has been cleaned that I am considering the other services from this company too. They offer services for Air Duct Cleaning, Mattress Cleaning, Leather Cleaning, Water Damage and Rug Repair.

The products they use have been tested by third parties and found to be just as effective as chemical cleaners and safer for the environment. Unlike conventional carpet cleaning companies, GreenChoice Carpet Cleaners use only 100% green carpet cleaning treatments. I used feel that I needed strong harsh chemicals to clean and remove stains. As I become more aware of the natural products and homemade ingredients, I am slowly converting. Look for my post on the Cabinet Hardware Cleaning Recipe Soon.

  1. When I moved into the house I live in, the carpet was in bad repair. It was supposed to have been replaced, and I realized it was an expense I was going to have to eat. We ended up having it cleaned, which actually changed the color if (that should indicate the depth of the damage). I would love to have it cleaned again.

    1. Same here. When we bought our home, the carpets were cleaned because we were thinking that we don't want to be in a house with that much filth. As it turned out, the carpet was still in great condition, just needed cleaning. It really made a huge difference. I forget sometimes. ;-)

  2. We really need our stairs and landing carpets cleaned, its quite embarrassing when you see how much dirt is in the cleaner after its done but I suppose carpet cleaners hear that all the time. It's nice to hear that that they are using green treatments, a real plus when choosing who to use.

  7. Any type of hard wood is so much cleaner in my opinion. We had carpets for years and the amount of dirt that gets ground in there is unbelievable. I must admit, I miss the soft carpet underfoot. Great tips on cleaning!

    1. I think you are right Kristi about the easy to clean, but wood is also more expensive than just cleaning. smiles. I do love to be able to get on my hands and knees with my daughter on carpet too!

  9. This is good to know. I had someone clean my carpets and I was overpowered by the deodorizer they used for at least a week. It was awful!
