Milwaukee Area Carpet Cleaning
FAQs
If you have light colored carpet, you may have experienced these dark lines that appear on the carpet. This soiling is called filtration soiling because it comes from air passing through the carpet as it is attempting to get through the crack between the carpet and the baseboard or under a closed door. As the air passes through the edge of the carpet pile, this microscopic soiling is deposited there (hence the term filtration soiling). This occurs over a significant period of time and is not noticed until a build up has occurred.
This type of soiling is difficult to remove because the soil particles are so fine that they penetrate deep into the carpet pile, sometimes into the backing of the carpet. Can it be removed? Sometimes. With special products, time and effort, reasonable results can sometimes be achieved. To help prevent filtration soiling, vacuum and wipe the edges of the carpeting on a regular basis. Be careful around the tack strip on the edge of the carpeting, it could nick your fingers!

J & S Carpet Cleaning is certified in all methods of cleaning and cleans according to the manufacturer recommendations. Most of the carpet cleaning we do is the “hot water extraction” method, also known as “steam cleaning” This process is used by 96% of all carpet cleaning companies across the country. Most major carpet manufacturers recommend hot water extraction as the preferred method of cleaning.
The normal drying time is anywhere from 6 to 8 hours. The carpet will only be damp to the touch. Depending on weather conditions, room temperature, air flow, and overall conditions this time can vary.
No. In fact, many of the major carpet mills today recommend professional cleaning at least once per year. The build up of soil in your carpet in combination with foot traffic creates abrasion that breaks down your carpet’s fibers. The higher the traffic in a given area, the more often the carpet will need cleaning.
As mentioned earlier, most major carpet manufacturers now recommend hot water extraction (steam cleaning) as the preferred method. Like the laundering of your clothing, steam cleaning is highly effective in removing soil and other contaminants from your carpet. It is one of five carpet cleaning processes that are officially recognized as an industry standard.
To most people “dry cleaning” means cleaning without water. The fact is that most carpet cleaning advertised as “dry” cleaning actually uses anywhere from a little to a lot of water! That’s because most of the soil in your carpet is water soluble. For the most part that means better results with a wet cleaning process. On the other hand each cleaning process has its place given the circumstances. For the majority of residential customers steam cleaning will deliver the most effective results.
At J & S Carpet Cleaning we offer all of the industry standard cleaning processes. Each process can be effective depending on the right circumstances.
No, although our process rinses the carpet deep down, moisture does not penetrate the backing of the carpet. With our powerful truck-mounted equipment, your carpet is thoroughly rinsed, but left only damp to the touch.
Pet odor is a very common problem. At J & S Carpet Cleaning we can help you deal with your pet challenges. From minor problems to major headaches J & S Carpet Cleaning can help find the solution that works best for you. The problem with pet odor is that it can be much deeper than it first appears. Pet urine can easily soak through the backing of the carpet into the padding underneath. In more severe cases the urine can penetrate into the sub-floor beneath the padding. This creates a problem that is multi-layered.
The urine also provides for the growth of bacteria. This, in turn, contributes to a worsening of the odor problem and can contribute to permanent color loss of the carpet fiber. To eliminate this problem the urine must be removed or neutralized from each of the layers effected. If the contamination is limited to only the face yarn of the carpet then the cleaning itself may effectively remove the odor. In more severe cases a urine neutralizer may be applied. In the most severe cases, replacement of the carpet padding, treatment of the under-side of the carpet and the sub-floor may be required. Even replacement of the carpet, however, cannot guarantee complete removal of the odor.
Left untreated over a period of time pet odor can become absorbed into many of the porous materials in your home. Draperies, sheet rock, upholstered furniture, base-boards, even the concrete foundation are just a few of the materials that can absorb these odors. At J & S Carpet Cleaning we offer a range of solutions to help you with your pet odor problems. In the long run, however, it may be more a matter of proper maintenance instead of total elimination. After all, we love our pets and want to keep them a part of our family. Pet ownership adds to the challenge of maintaining a clean and healthy home. At J & S Carpet Cleaning we can help you meet those challenges.
In 1992, representatives from the carpet manufacturing industry, the carpet cleaning industry, and the federal government all agreed upon a common set of standards for the carpet cleaning industry. These standards are now referred to as the CRI standards. J & S Carpet Cleaning offers all of these methods and can select the process that’s right for your needs.
It was agreed that each of these cleaning processes should include these common steps:
- Pre-Vacuum.
- Pre-treat spots, stains and heavily soiled areas.
- Hot Water Extraction.
- A thorough rinse.
- Complete Drying within 24 hours.

The price quoted was very reasonable. The guys arrived on time and were courteous and professional, worked quickly and did a fantastic job on our carpets. Everything was flawless. We couldn't be happier with the results!

This company takes the extra step to stand above and beyond any carpet service I have ever used. The front door was secured by a plastic door to keep the outside-out, they placed mats down in the entry way to protect my flooring and all the corners of the rooms had guards placed to avoid knicks and scratches. I really cannot say enough good things about this company. And finally, my carpets look and smell wonderful thanks to Scott and Ethan. Thank you LuAnn Beebe WaukeshaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.SueMay 27, 2024J&S Carpet Cleaning has always done a great job!

I was first impressed with the woman over the phone that explained their 12 step process and the price to me over the phone. She was knowledgeable and helpful and explained their worth/value, which is super important as a small business (we are a small business too)... so I felt very comfortable booking them. Then their actions yesterday backed up their sales promise/description. We have 3 pets and had to coral them out of the way. But the men were fast and efficient and in no time we were back to work and back to life. The house didn't stink and wasn't sopping wet which we appreciated. They even got this gummy stain out. We didn't know what it was but they figured it out. I highly recommend J&S Carpet cleaning.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.Meta CiceroMay 1, 2024They were on time. Explained everything.
