Ah, the eternal debate about carpet cleaning north shore carpetcarespecialists.biz: dry cleaning or steam cleaning? It is as if we talk of Rocky Balboa’s gloves against Apollo Creed’s fist-common great, but which one do you fancy? Like the choice between those two great boxers, options are not quite so clear-cut. So let us delve into the nuances and not pull any punches.
Well, you would not wash a water-sensitive silk shirt with a power washer, and neither would some carpet fabrics require an approach of this nature. Dry carpet cleaning involves specialized machines and no water; often not even a sprinkle is used. It works well in the case of those people who need quick-drying results, hence making it ideal for any person who despises waiting. Just think that there might not be any dog hungrier to run after a ball again than be towel-dried! For allergic people, the ‘minimum moisture’ approach is usually a deal-breaker since there’s hardly any chance of mold growing in places that never get dry.
On the other hand, steam cleaning is a bit like that bosom friend who preserves his cure-all prescription in a hot cup of tea. Steam cleaning works by forcing out dirt and bacteria with the help of hot steam in much the same way as sweating during sauna forces out toxins. As for grime which is deep-seated-like that stubborn relative on your couch-steam cleaning has the upper edge.
Let’s be real for a second-if you actually like the popsicles of color that color the sidewalks during summer, beware of strawberry stains carelessly dropped by ice cream lovers. Dry cleaning takes off the superficial stains while steam cleaning, yes, does hold onto especially stubborn and sticky stains. Unfortunately, the aftereffects make the steam cleaning part a comedy as one then jumps around in hopscotch-on-a-rainy-day fashion from dry spot to dry spot.
