Carpet Steam Cleaning Is Best Performed By Our Techs Here at Busy Bee Carpet Steamers a Local Company Here In Houston, TX.
***Note: Most carpet manufactures void warranty if carpet is not professional cleaned by STEAM cleaning. There are a few different types of carpet cleaning methods. The one method that has been around for years is bonnet cleaning for low moisture and quick dry times. The issue with bonnet cleaning is that shampoos are mostly used and not fully extracted. Therefor, rapid re-soiling occurs from the existing shampoo and sticky residue.
We use kid and pet safe cleaners that loosens up the soil, allergens, and residue in carpet. Then we steam clean at around 220-230 degree’s. Some carpet cleaners use soaps and shampoo’s to clean the carpet with that leave residue and a high Ph level in the carpets. NOT GOOD! If not removed properly, soaps and shampoo’s will remain in the carpet cause sticky residue and rapid resoiling. This will also cause the carpet to be destroyed faster. Over wetting carpet can also be an issue for other carpet cleaners. Carpets should not be wet for 24hrs or more. Dry time for steam leaning in most homes is 6-12 hours, but can be lease or more.
Our general carpet steam cleaning includes a safe preconditioner cleaner treatment plus steam cleaning. If you have any bio-waste in your carpet (urine, feces, vomit, blood), a special process is needed to remove properly and an additional fee will be applied. Our technicians will inspect the carpet with a UV black light for bio-waste contamination and then confirm with customer what areas need proper treatment.
Please keep in mind that a regularly vacuumed room of carpet will help in maintaining the life of the carpet. All residential carpet should be professionally cleaned at least twice a year and heavily traffic commercial carpet more frequently. Your flooring is a long term investment and should be maintained to get the life and value out of it.

Carpet Drying Process:
Here at Busy Bee Carpet Steamers we make several dry strokes with our cleaning wand to remove as much moisture as possible.
In most homes, the carpet dry time is 6-12 hours. Some carpets may dry sooner and some can take longer depending on many variables such as thickness of carpet, air temp in home, deep cleaning or special treatments in carpet, and traffic on carpet after cleaning is complete.
Carpet dries faster with airflow. Keep A/C at a comfortable temperature and household fans circulating to assist in the drying process.
We do offer speed drying services for the areas of your concern. We place a couple of high speed blowers in rooms to speed up drying process.
Carpets should not stay wet for over 24hrs.
Equipment Used for Cleaning:
A Commercial high power Truckmounted machine is used in the cleaning process of your carpets.***
Truckmounted cleaning is much faster than portable equipment and extra heat and power can give better results and faster drying times.
We hook up a water hose to a faucet at house or business and run fresh water to machine.
Vacuum and solution hoses are ran from van to house or business for the cleaning carpet cleaning process.
The dirty water is then extracted back to the van and dumped into a dirty water tank.
A carpet cleaning wand is used for most carpet cleaning. In some cases of heavily soiled carpets, a rotary cleaning machine is used for extra deep scrubbing and cleaning.
