DIY Carpet cleaning machines vs paying professionals. What is the better route for the budget minded individual? Read more as we explore this option.

The short answer is don’t hire a carpet cleaning machine from the store. Sure it’s cheap but it can go so wrong. We don’t want to see you end up paying thousands to replace carpet that has been damaged as a machine was not used right. And the reality is the cost of getting a professional clean from a company like us isn’t that much more vs hiring a machine.

The reality is that after 20 or so years in the carpet cleaning business we have seen our fair share of damaged carpets through botched DIY jobs. We have seen it all, from a carpet that has been ripped apart, to the wrong cleaning chemicals used that have caused horrible discoloration.

So the goal here today is really to save you’re a headache that you could cause going the DIY route hiring a cleaning machine from the store. You don’t even have to call us about our services. Heck, why not call us. Get a quote and then shop around. We really don’t care. What we are trying to do here today is save you from being another victim of a carpet cleaning DIY disaster. That’s it!

What it actually comes down to is the fact that there are not all that many ways to clean carpet but if you are not trained in doing it the right way you can cause damages. Or if you use a cleaning method that is suitable for one type of carpet on the wrong carpet you can cause damages.

On occasion, and have to laugh, as we get a customer calling us and explaining they want a professional service. And they ask very particular questions like what machines we use and so on.

Most of the time, this is due to the fact that we are the second company they have called. The first was a booking they made and some random person impersonated being a highly experienced carpet cleaning professional. But showed up in an unmarked car (no company branding) and a rug doctor.

Like we said before, we can only laugh, as we side with these customers. We know why they never let the person clean their carpets and we are more than happy to answer all their questions when they call us with a bit of skepticism. Which is always dissolved by the time we are done talking and get them booked in.

So if you don’t know what you are doing you can cause big problems for yourself. So, a good question to ask yourself self is the following:

Are you a trained expert in the field of cleaning carpets? If you aren’t, you should call a professional instead.
