Warning about cleaning wool carpets Be careful when cleaning wool carpets as strong cleaning solutions can loosen dyes and make them run, If possible when cleaning wool always use a powerful vacuum truck mounted machine which uses less chemical and more leaves the carpet relatively dry. If using a portable or small truck mount try to extract as much water out of them as possible and leave windows and doors open or use a blower to speed up drying, these precautions will help to reduce the risk of shrinkage. If you are unlucky enough to shrink a carpet arrange for a carpet fitter to visit the property a few days later to stretch /refit the carpet back for the customer. Grooming Once you are happy with the cleanliness of the carpet you should use a carpet brush to lift the carpet pile Brush the carpet pile in several directions to see which gives it the best appearance. Grooming in this way makes the carpet appear newer and feel softer as it returns the pile to it original orientation, your customer will love the results. Little touches like this will mean more recommendations from customers. Leave as many doors and windows open as possible to increase the air flow to the area you have cleaned, this will help the carpet dry quicker. Carpets that have been cleaned with an extraction cleaner usually dry in 2-4 hours depending on the weather.
