Do It Yourself Or Call A Pro?
Some homeowners may choose to clean their own carpets and upholstery with either a heavy-duty vacuum or portable cleaning unit. These options, however, may not have the power necessary to remove deeply imbedded soil, dust, bacteria, and pet odors and stains, and they may lack proper water extraction.

Furthermore, portable units that use water may not achieve the exact temperature needed to properly care for your carpets and upholstery. The best alternative is to hire a professional carpet cleaning company that uses truck-mounted equipment and hot water extraction to remove imbedded soil.
- The West Coast Two-Step Deep Clean system goes a step beyond the standard hot water extraction method. Using powerful truck-mounted equipment, your West Coast Carpet Care specialist first applies a hot pre-conditioning spray with powerful cleaning agents to break up soil and loosen oil deposits in your carpet's pile. Then, a deep-cleaning pH balanced fiber rinse washes soil and the cleaning solution from your carpet with a powerful vacuum. Your carpets are left clean, soft and free of residue that can attract dirt in the future.
- Dry Compound Method (used by some carpet cleaners) uses a cellulose or synthetic powder combined with a solvent, which is spread over the carpet and worked into the carpet pile with rotating cylinder brushes. The material is then vacuum-cleaned. The cleaning powder is difficult to remove, leaving a damaging residue behind.
The Importance of Carpet Protectors
Carpet manufacturers apply protectors at the factory to help your carpets stay cleaner longer. But, with foot traffic and vacuuming, this protection wears off over time. Having the Protector reapplied helps slow down the formation of traffic patterns by allowing you to get more dirt out of your carpet with your vacuum cleaner. And it gives you extra time to clean up spills before they turn into stains.
West Coast Carpet Care recommends and uses Teflon Carpet and Upholstery Protector. Reapplying protector helps restore protective properties to your carpet, extending its life and making it easier to care for.
