Why Renting Carpet Cleaners From a Store Is Not Worth Your Time or Money

Why Renting Carpet Cleaners From a Store Is Not Worth Your Time or Money

When your home's carpets need cleaning, you may consider renting a machine from a local grocery or hardware store to handle the job yourself. Unfortunately, the equipment you get from stores and the quality of cleaning are rarely on par with the industry standard, and that only begins to address the issues you face when renting carpet cleaners. Here is why professional cleaning will save you time and money in the end.

A Deeper Clean

Most homeowners would not expect a carpet cleaning machine from the store to deliver the same level of clean as a professional job, but the difference is dramatic. The level of clean from a rental cleaner doesn't begin to reach even the most basic types of cleaning provided by a professional carpet cleaner.

Furthermore, store-rented machines use large amounts of water that soak the carpets as they clean. This system takes a long time to dry, which may create mold and mildew, leading to future stains and odors.

Problems Handling Store Carpet Cleaners

Homeowners who decide to rent a carpet cleaning machine have their hands full in many ways. Since there is so much water used in the cleaning process, you are going to spend a lot of time trying to get dirt particles out of the carpet, then additional time trying to dry the fabric.

Naturally, there are many cleaning techniques you won't be familiar with when you rent a machine from a store. ZEROREZ® cleaning technicians train for several months before going out into the field alone. The professional equipment and methods they use give them many advantages, but their training and expertise will help identify the best ways to clean your particular type of carpet and any areas of you concern you might have in your home.

Residues From Store Cleaners

In addition to the way rented machines soak carpets, the shampoos and chemicals used in their cleaning solutions are not fully removed during the extraction process. Your carpets retain residues from these soaps that are quick to attract dirt particles, which makes your carpet look dirty sooner than it should. Meanwhile, these dirt particles have the effect of sandpaper on a carpet every time someone walks over it. This can affect the life span of your carpets. In other words, not only will your carpet not get very clean by doing it yourself, you may make it worse.

ZEROREZ® of Atlanta provides a more efficient way to clean carpets. By using green cleaning materials that do not leave residues behind, ZEROREZ® gives you a deeper clean that lasts longer. Technicians use the most advanced cleaning system with an extraction wand that leaves half the moisture per square yard compared to most systems.

Deep carpet cleaning delivers value for homeowners that is impossible to find in rented carpet cleaners. Save yourself time and money by choosing ZEROREZ®.
