Magic Carpet Cleaning has fully qualified teams of cleaners in London. They do an excellent job and use the best equipment in the cleaning industry. Please read below on our approach to using steam carpets cleaning and stain removal equipment.

Our steam cleaning equipment

Our teams in London use professional cleaning equipment. This equipment falls into two categories: traditional and state-of-art steam cleaning. The traditional steam cleaning equipment is the one type that uses real steam to remove stains and marks, as well as to clean your carpets and rugs. The state-of-the-art cleaning equipment is the latest in the industry. What it does it to sprays small moisture particles onto the carpets, giving the appearance of steam. Our London based teams use the latter type of carpet cleaning and stain removal equipment. They are more efficient and do a better job than the traditional equipment.

Improper steam clean equipment

On the London market, there is also a wide range of steam cleaning equipment that’s unsuitable for carpet stains removal and cleaning. These are types of products that are used for cleaning household items such as patios, wood items, ceramic tiles and so on. They are unsuitable for carpet stain removal and cleaning because they are more powerful and they could do a lot of damage to your carpets and upholstery / fabric.

About cleaning systems
First of all, keep in mind that every cleaning system — regardless if it is intended for use on carpets, upholstery, rugs or for stain removal purposes — uses some form of chemical.
That particular chemical helps easily and safely clean any type of soft furnishings.
Water as a cleaning product
Secondly, we have to underline that even water, too — a key ingredient of a great number of cleaning solutions — is a chemical.
So using water whenever cleaning your carpets, rugs, upholstery and so on could mean that we use chemicals in our everyday job, even though water is seen as a harmless yet essential chemical in our industry.
Carpet cleaning code of practice
Thirdly, and the most important thing to note, is that our London cleaners’ team is fully qualified and fully trained to strictly adhere to our carpet cleaning code of practice.
