Normal messes on carpet or upholstery take normal Utah carpet cleaning. However there are times when a death of a loved one, human or pet can cause bodily fluids to get all over the carpet and or upholstery. This can be a more extensive cleaning that your Utah carpet cleaning appointment would be able to do. In many instances the material needs to be removed out of the home. This can be done safely and effectively by our trained professionals. We have a team of professionals able to remove the toughest of messes and restore your home back to normal. In some instances building material needs to be removed and replaced, such as carpet, padding, subfloors and drywall. Most times these types of accidents could be covered under homeowners insurance and our sister company “Bio Clean of Utah” would work directly with them after you call us. We hope that you may never need to call us for such a cleanup, but things happen and when they do it is best to leave it to those who can do it correctly.

Anyone that has children knows that accidents happen and it always seems to be when they are drinking red juice or who hasn’t knocked a melted candle over. Chem-Dry has a process just for those times. It’s called RED ALERT! Red stains often don’t come out with regular Utah carpet cleaning, because the red dye has been absorbed and set in the fibers.
Red Alert is Chem-Dry’s lifesaving response to critical red stain emergencies. Red Alert can be used to remove red-colored liquids, soft drinks, red and purple juices, red wines, lipstick, bloodstains, tomato sauce, ketchup and even red candle wax! Red Alert also takes out stains that have been in your carpet for years!

Winter is an excellent time to have your upholstery cleaned. Many fabrics require special attention and treatments. We are less busy in the winter months and this allows us a greater opportunity to make sure we are able to spend the necessary time when cleaning delicate fabrics. Also, by tradition we offer a winter special that gives additional savings on upholstery cleaning. Our current winter special will give you a larger discount the more upholstery you have cleaned.
There are many differences in fabrics. Some of the cleaning instructions found on clothing labels include: use cold water, hot water, hand wash, hang dry, dry-clean only, etc. Fabrics on furniture have very special needs also. Although most furniture will have labels with cleaning instructions or cleaning codes they are usually not very helpful. There are only three cleaning codes:
W – Stands for water. This fabric should be safe to clean with water based products.
S – Solvent cleaning is recommended.
X – Do not clean by any method.
Other labels on furniture are usually not any more helpful, they rarely tell us what the fabric is made from. (No, the little black and white labels that begin, “All new material consisting of”, are not referring to the fabric but instead refer to the batting and foam.)All of our technicians receive training on analyzing and testing fabrics and on all of the products, methods and techniques to clean all of these different types of fabrics.
Tips:
1 – Ask for the fiber content of the fabric when you buy new furniture. It will not be on the labels, and will probably not be on any of the literature you receive either. The information is available though, if you ask for it. (Fewer than 1% of customers know the exact fiber content of the fabrics on any of their furniture.)
2 – If you don’t know what you are doing – call us! You could damage your furniture.
3 – For furniture that is more durable, serviceable and cleans up nicely, limit your choices to synthetic fibers.
4 – For additional savings, have us apply the protectant on your new furniture rather than the furniture store.
There are two ways to clean carpet and upholstery: Chem Dry and steam cleaning. Each process uses a different cleaning method, but in the end, your carpet and upholstery are usually clean. When making the decision about which method to use, there are some things to know and consider.
- Chem Dry is a company well known for cleaning upholstery and carpets with a chemical cleaner rather than hot water. It uses microscopic carbonated bubbles to get deep into the carpet and then, with the help of carbonation, the dirt, stains and grime are extracted away. The terms “chem dry” and “dry carpet cleaning” are often synonymous with carpet and upholstery cleaning using this method.
- The major benefit of using Chem Dry is that the carpet and upholstery quickly dries. Little to no liquid is left behind in your carpet, which can often lead to more dirt and grime getting trapped in. You can usually walk on carpet immediately even though the cleaned surfaces will not be completely dry in the first few hours. Some people may think the cost of chemical cleaning is expensive, but it actually costs about the same as professional steam cleaning. You cannot, however, do this process yourself at home.
- Steam cleaning uses hot water and a chemical cleaning solution. A cleaning machine agitates and soaks the carpet to loosen the dirt and stains. The machine then immediately vacuums up the water, cleaner, dirt, stains and grime leaving you with clean carpet or upholstery.
- You can hire a professional to steam clean your carpets and upholstery, or you can do it yourself with a rented or owned machine. While some people are concerned about the chemicals in the cleaning solution, you can use just hot water, especially if you are doing it yourself. Cleaning it yourself is cheap compared to professional cleaning, and buying a machine usually pays off in about two cleanings. The disadvantage of steam cleaning is that the water tends to remain in the carpet or upholstery for days. Professionals are able to extract more water than the average homeowner, however some water is still left behind. This water can then trap in more dirt and grime if it is used. There is also a chance, if it does not dry thoroughly, that the moisture could lead to possible mold and bacteria growth.
- The debate is on. Some homeowners believe Chem Dry can get rid of stains that steam cleaning could not and vice versa. There are no official studies to compare both cleaning processes, but since steam cleaning can leave water and chemicals behind, if you have small children or pets, you may wish to consider Chem Dry.

Hello my name is Tristan. I was cleaning the carpet for a Chinese food restaurant recently, the traffic lanes in the carpet were horrible, I couldn’t even see the color of the carpet through the soil and grease. We are very good at all types of commercial carpet cleaning, but restaurants are always a challenge. Besides the normal soil the grease that gets tracked out of the kitchen is a difficult challenge to clean. It took me a fair bit of work but eventually I was able to remove roughly ninety percent of the soil and grease. I was extremely impressed, I knew the right product and techniques to use, but this one was pretty bad and I was impressed with the results. Any who, if you need some carpet cleaned and you like nice people, call Advantage Chem Dry and ask for Tristan to do your carpet cleaning and I will help you out.
