What dictates this is the composition and type of clean. Synthetic carpets will dry faster as they are not nearly as absorbent as natural carpets. With a dry clean not alot of moisture is being injected into your carpet so it should dry within an hour or two. With a steam clean alot more moisture penetrates deeper down. This means a drying time of between 6 to 8 hours if done professionally with good quality equipment.

A professional dry carpet clean of three rooms should never take less than an hour. A professional steam clean of 3 carpets should never take less than one and a half hours. This is because they should always include a vacuum, stain treatment, deodorise and grooming as well!

As someone who does both steam and dry cleaning we are not biased. Dry cleaning is alot more surface orientated relying more on detergents and agitation to do the work. It is quicker, less sophisticated and ideal if you need to walk on the carpet immediately. Steam Cleaning is more thorough. It carries the full extraction factor which although it takes longer to dry it’s because it’s cleaning deeper into your carpet pile. Removing stains and using stain treatments is not a risk with steam cleaning as they are going to be extracted after. Sadly people that do only dry cleaning will tell you it’s better but Steam Cleaning is much more effective as it’s capable of removing up to 90% of dust and allergens.

At Unify Cleaning Services we experience a high volume of customers, each job is unique which can sometimes alter the time required. We give a  1  hour to 2 hour window and also send a text 30mins before arriving as part of our service that our customers appreciate.

We use the Steam Cleaning/hot-water extraction method when carpet cleaning. This is proven to be the most effective method which the Worlds largest carpet manufacturer (Shaw Industries) recommends. We have invested in the most advanced and most powerful truck mount system to ensure you are getting the best.

You should vacuum at least once a week to pick up loose dirt and soil.

If it is a small light item we will help shift it onto the bed or aside. Any thing that is heavy or valuable we will not move as we are not professional removalists and do not have the proper equipment or experience to move things without the risks of damaging your goods.
