Carpet Cleaning in Aiud

About this service

The difference between professional cleaning and domestic cleaning lies in the extraction. A hot water extraction machine sprays solution into the pile under pressure and immediately vacuums it back out along with the dissolved dirt, which means the soiling actually leaves the carpet rather than being pushed deeper. The amount of water left in the fibre is small, and drying takes hours rather than days. Method matters: wool and Persian rugs, with sensitive dyes, require pH-neutral solutions at low temperature, while a synthetic fitted carpet tolerates more aggressive treatment. A serious firm first tests colourfastness in a hidden area before treating the whole surface.

What to check before hiring a carpet cleaning

Don't put furniture back until it's completely dry — you risk marks and mildew
Ventilate the room well after on-site cleaning so drying is quick
Ask whether the rate includes stain pre-treatment or whether it's charged separately
For Persian or wool rugs, choose a firm that explicitly confirms experience with these materials
If the pile stays sticky after drying, the rinse was insufficient — raise it with the firm
Vacuum the carpet before the team arrives — it shortens the job and improves the result

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the carpet take to dry?

After hot water extraction, drying usually takes 4–10 hours at home if the room is ventilated. At a depot, with professional dryers, the process takes 12–24 hours. Thick wool rugs can take 24–48 hours. Don't put furniture back until it's completely dry.

Is it cleaned at home or collected?

Both options exist. On-site cleaning is practical for fitted carpet, sofas, and large rugs, and finishes the same day. Collection allows a more intensive clean, with thorough rinsing and controlled drying, and is recommended for wool, Persian, or heavily soiled rugs.

Which stains can be removed and which can't?

Food, coffee, grease, mud, beer, and most recent stains come out well. Permanent ink, paint, bleach, old rust, and burns are difficult or impossible, because they have already destroyed the fibre or pigment. An honest firm tells you upfront what is realistically achievable.

Can pet odour be removed?

Yes, in most cases. Urine penetrates right through to the backing, however, and surface cleaning alone isn't enough. An enzymatic treatment is needed that breaks down the compounds responsible for the odour, applied deeply and left to act. Old, repeated incidents may require two treatments.

Does cleaning damage a wool rug?

No, if done correctly. Wool requires pH-neutral solutions, low temperature, and rapid drying to avoid fibre shrinkage and dye migration. The risk arises when alkaline detergents or overly hot water are used. Ask the firm to confirm it has experience with wool before handing over the rug.

Is colourfastness tested before cleaning?

Yes, it's a mandatory step at any serious firm. The solution is applied in a hidden area, usually on the reverse of the edge, and a white cloth is used to check whether pigment transfers. On old, vegetable-dyed rugs the test is essential, because some colours can bleed irreversibly.
