Please note while we have a “Happiness Guarantee” we do not provide any guarantee or warranty for the removal of permanent stains. Situations of extreme carpet soiling and staining that are beyond routine spots and spills will be specifically excluded from free follow up visits/service calls. Hourly cleaning charges may apply for extreme soiling and staining situations.

While most carpets are made of synthetic fibres that are quite resistant to permanent staining, there are some things that may permanently change the colour of the fibres in your carpet. What we are talking about here is manageable, small permanent stains which you may be ok with. If your home has extensive soiling and/or staining, please check our post on whether to keep or replace your carpet.

  • Bleach – bleach and cleaning products containing bleach actually chemically alter your carpet colour. Cleaning this will not restore the original colour. A carpet repair company may be able to re-dye the spots to match the original colour of the carpet.
  • Acne medications & some sunscreens – can contain chemicals that will have a similar effect as bleach.
  • Some food dyes
  • Coffee – the tannins in coffee, especially when combined with cream and spilled when hot can create stains that are very difficult or impossible to remove
  • Paint
  • Ink
  • Greases & Oils
  • Some makeup

Improving your chances of getting it all out

  1. Blot (don’t rub) up as much as possible as soon as possible
  2. Use clean white cloths with something heavy on top to wick up liquid that may have seeped deep into the carpet or underlay
  3. Carefully check the StainGuide before attempting DIY stain removal
  4. For extreme spills or stains, seek professional help ASAP

Alberta Carpet Cleaning Reviews

Alberta carpet cleaning cleaned my carpets.I am beyond impressed. I didn’t think service like this existed anymore. A real person (Anna), not AI, did the booking using text messages. Convenient and effective. Mark cleaned my carpets. The results are amazing. My carpets hadn’t been cleaned since the house was built 18 years ago. I thought for sure they needed to be replaced. Excellent results. Excellent service. Excellent experience. Professional and knowledgeable employees. Fair price considering the expense of replacement.

I had an appointment for cleaning my carpet last week, and Jason G. called me before coming in the appointed time. He had all necessary ancillaries to take care of my house clean and spotless as it was. Jason was very friendly, and thorough in cleaning the carpet, paying much attention to details and all nooks and corners of each room was cleaned. All the more, Jason G. was very gentle, smiling and explaining to me details as he was working on the carpet. I am extremely pleased with the way Jason rendered the service and would give 10 starts if that were available. Extremly happy and pleased. Thanks Jason G.
