Best Carpet Cleaning Process in St. Louis!
When you choose Woodard, you choose the 12-steps every time without any additional charges for vacuuming, moving light furniture, or a disposal fee.
Step 1 – Pre-Inspection of Carpet
You’ll first meet your cleaning technician (aka Crew Chief)! Next, you will walk through & discuss problem areas together (this is a great opportunity to point out stains that have been driving you crazy!). We will also point out any traffic patterns that may need extra attention. Once our walkthrough is complete, we will provide you with a written estimate.
Step 2 – Protect Your Home
Before we start the cleaning, we will protect your home as if it were our own. We use corner guards to make sure our hoses don’t run across the wall and cause damage. The technician will also lay down padded mats to protect the flooring in your home.
Step 3 – Vacuum
There’s no need to bust out your personal vacuum and clean before our carpet cleaning technician arrives. (That seems backward to us! You hired us to clean!) We vacuum in our 12-steps process for no additional cost! This also gives the cleaning technician a second look at your carpet.
Step 4 – Move Furniture
Our standard process for each and every job is to move the furniture in the areas we are cleaning*. There’s no need to stress about moving your furniture in and out, we’ll do it for you without being asked! Your cleaning technician will move items such as small end tables, night stands, ottomans, sofas, etc. We do ask that prior to our arrival they are cleared of any breakables such as lamps, pictures frames, or candles. In most cases, we move your furniture on slides to prevent damage to your floors. This allows us to access the areas underneath these pieces of furniture to provide you a thorough cleaning.
* Your technician will review and discuss with you what items can and cannot be moved. There is an additional cost to move larger/heavier items. Please let our team know ahead of time so we can send the appropriate cleaning crew to your home.
Step 5: Spot Pretreatment
Step 6 – Pre-Condition & Agitate the Carpet
At this time we will apply the pre-condition to your carpet. Some of our pre-conditions take time to do their job properly. After the application is complete, we agitate the pre-conditioner using a counter-rotating brush or a carpet rake. This allows us to break up additional soil and remove any remaining debris that wasn’t picked up by the vacuum.
Step 7 – Address Problem Areas Along Edges
The areas along your baseboards or walls will frequently collect dirt. We will inspect, and if needed, we will hand scrub these areas to remove the soil and provide a more uniformed look.
Yes! You read that right, we will get down on our hands and knees and attack these stubborn areas. We pride ourselves on providing you with the best clean!
Step 8 – Extract With a Hot Water Rinse
We use a wand and a truck mount to hot water extract your carpeting. This removes all remaining soil in your carpet. Our hot water extraction method doesn’t just hit the surface of your carpet but get’s deep down into the roots of your carpet performing a truly deep clean. A hot water extraction cleaning method will also keep your carpet warranty valid! And don’t forget to keep your receipt, too! A carpet cleaning warranty can be voided if you don’t professionally clean every one to two years.
Step 9 – Apply Stain Protection
The application of stain protection will also help with maintaining your fresh, clean carpeting. It restores your carpets ability to resist stains. And makes vacuuming up dry soil easier.
Step 10 – Groom Carpet for Uniform Look
Before our final steps, we groom your carpeting to give it a uniform look. This ensures that all the carpet fibers are facing the same way expediting dry time and spreading the stain protection treatment evenly across the carpet.
Step 11 – Rapid Drying
For an extra boost in the drying process, we will place powerful turbo-dryers in areas that are needed. This will help to move air throughout the area to expedite the drying process.
Step 12 – Final Walk Through
Lastly, we will perform a final walk-through with you. We will discuss the effectiveness of our cleaning processes and post-cleaning care instructions.
Only Woodard offers this level of service and results for one price! Once the cleaning is complete, we’ll leave you with a bottle of Spot Out Remover and shoe covers!
Best of all, Woodard has a 100% satisfaction guarantee!
