Title: emmersion cleaning
Post by: Shaun_Ashmore on July 01, 2007, 09:01:41 pm
I can understand why especially in the US that this kind of cleaning is done, I have been on a couple of emergency jobs this week where the water has wanted sucking out of carpets, when I have done so after the carpet may at one time been under a considerable amount of water the carpet when extracted is clean the fibres are fresh and soft and shiny.

Makes you wonder how much dirt we are actually taking away.

With the expected drop in laminated, NOT happening, it might be a good idea to target rugs !!!!!

Yeah the laminate thing has levelled off also I don't see so much crap stuff around,have people realised that the more expensive stuff is better?

I dont know what its like for you chaps-in your areas? BUT, i do know that where my target areas are then laminate is a no-no! Indeed if you still have some then you are seen to be 'furnishing' a floor for speed or on the cheap! Granted, it took some work away from the carpeting trade five years ago but thats all altered now-AND i see this across three counties in England so its hoorays from me!

Hope your well Shaun-missed that bit of a shower we had?

Shaun, the flooded carpet is kind of simulating a saturation clean which of course is the best way to clean a carpet.  Granted we cant clean a wall to wall carpet by choice by flooding it but in this case as you had no choice will have got a better clean than a normal extraction clean or dare I say any type of dry clean.

Best, Dave.
