Our 10 Step Cleaning Process
1. Pre-inspection Our technicians will walk through your home with you and visually inspect your floor to be cleaned. We will identify potential permanent stains and give you an evaluation of expected results, as well as listen to any concerns you may have.
2. Pre-spray A Pre-conditioning agent is applied to emulsify and break down traffic area soil and general spots for a thorough cleaning.
3. Pre-spot Difficult spots are pre-treated with special spotting solutions for higher success rate of removal.
4. Pre-groom/Agitate A professional carpet groomer is used to further loosen the soil.
5. Soil extraction rinse and neutralized The carpet is then thoroughly rinsed using pressured 250 degree steam which kills all bacteria and allergens. Then extracted using high vacuum pressures to ensure no over wetting. This process leaves the carpet with a neutral pH balance with no sticky residue.
6. Post spot Any spots or stains still remaining will get extra treatment with special spotting solutions. For longer carpet life and fewer permanent stains, be sure to have carpet protector applied.
7. Teflon protector (optional) Our technician will then apply Teflon protector to your carpet to prolong the life and beauty of your floor.
8. Post groom Your carpet is now groomed following the application of Teflon carpet protector.
9. Speed dry High velocity air movers are placed on the carpet after cleaning to promote faster drying.
10. Post cleaning inspection Our technicians will then walk through your home with you and point out the cleaning results to make sure you are completely satisfied.
Here are the answers to the three most commonly asked questions.
How long should we wait to have our carpets cleaned?
Imagine, you have a new born baby, a roaming toddler with a sippy cup full of red Kool-aid, or you're an allergy sufferer; perhaps you’re the proud owner of a new puppy or kitten, or maybe you've just given up trying to get your kids to take their shoes off at the door. You can see that each situation is very unique. Each one of you could require a different answer to this question; however, most carpeting manufacturers recommend a professional cleaning every 12 to 18 months.
Aren't all carpet cleaning companies roughly the same?
No. As with any industry, carpet cleaners run the gamut from Bubba working out of the back of his car, to the low-price, high-volume franchises.

What is it about Advantage Steam that makes the company so unique?
Let’s just try and pretend for a moment that the finest equipment, safest products and certified technicians in Placer/Sacramento county don't even matter.
