Spot Removal Guide

There are many published spot removal guides that provide various "cocktails" of household chemicals you may use to clean spots off your carpet. We do not endorse the use of these charts for a number of reasons. Two biggies below:

First of all, if you attempt to remove a stain using one of these "cocktails" and are unsuccessful, you probably set the stain in the process, when we may have been able to get it out if you hadn't messed with it.

Secondly, you are not a trained cleaner. You don't have a $20,000 cleaning outfit, 20 years' experience, and extensive training in cleaning and spot removal. Do you know how to apply all these chemicals to your carpet and NOT RUIN THE CARPET?

Now, we don't want you to call us for every little spot, OK? So just follow these simple instructions. If they don't work, then call us for free advice. We will help you over the phone for a few minutes at no charge. If it takes longer than that, you probably need to have us over for a spot-cleaning appointment.

Step 1: remove all loose foreign material from the spot or spill. Try not to rub the spot because you'll rub it in.

Step 2: Using a white rag (cotton is the best) and cool water, moisten one corner of the rag and, starting from an outer edge, BLOT the spot. Look at the rag; did the spot leave a spot on the rag? If yes, continue. If no, stop and go to Step 2A.

Step 2A: Using a white rag (cotton is the best) and mineral spirits (regular paint thinner), moisten one corner of the rag and, starting from and outer edge, BLOT the spot. Look at the rag; did the spot leave a spot on the rag? If yes, continue. If no, stop and call us.
