Well yes they probably can, but what matters is the damage that they cause to the carpets through lack of knowledge.
Fitz2Kleen are proud to be associated with TACCA whose soul aim is to educate and protect the public from the splash and dash and bait and switch brigade that give us honest professionals a bad reputation.

If your carpets are getting dirty quicker than normal after cleaning, the chances are this is because of poor cleaning methods or lack of knowledge of the cleaning chemicals used.
Maybe you have used carpet cleaning products from a supermarket, which are highly concentrated, hired a machine to clean them which is not capable of removing these excesses or even hired an inexperienced carpet cleaner who claims to be a professional but has had no training.
Rapid resoiling happens when too much chemical residue is left on the top of the carpet and the residue actually attracts dirt.
When these chemicals are not neutralised and removed from your carpets after cleaning the fibres of the carpet becomes sticky, much in the same way as if you spill a sugary drink,and everything sticks to it like magnet.

HOW TO CHOOSE A PROFESSIONAL CARPET CLEANER
“Cleaning Carpet Can Be a Dirty Business” “Not All Scum Is In the Carpet” “Don’t Let them Pull The Rug Out From Under You”
“Clean Your Carpets Without Cleaning Out Your Wallet” “Don’t Get Taken To The Cleaners”.
These clever phrases have appeared recently in newspaper articles and televised consumer news programs across the nation warning consumers about carpet cleaning scam operations.
The media has related horror stories of trusting consumers who have responded to low-price carpet cleaning specials only to become victims of unethical cleaners who refuse to honour the advertised price, intimidate the consumers, and do poor quality work.
Bait-and-switch operators are prevalent in many industries, and the carpet cleaning industry is no exception.
This does not mean that all carpet cleaners are rip-off artists.
So how do you know who is and who is not?
The professional carpet cleaning industry has cited these scam activities as a major industry concern and is taking action to help eliminate unprofessional workmanship and unethical tactics.
To help educate consumers so they will not become victims of fraudulent practices within the cleaning industry, a list of guidelines for you to consider when selecting a carpet cleaner has been released.
Price – If an advertised price sounds too good to be true – it usually is!
Often carpet cleaners advertise a low price just to get their foot in the door.
Common sense, a low price usually equates to low quality for any product or service.
Legitimate business people have legitimate expenses they must cover, including license, taxes, insurance, employee wages, and benefits, and quality tools of the trade.
A professional carpet cleaner who must cover all of these business expenses and make a profit to stay in the business cannot afford to drive to your house for £5.00, much less clean a room of carpet when there.
Quality - Never should the price of cleaning services be the sole criterion for selecting a carpet cleaner.
A price that sounds high should not be a signal of a rip-off.
In all professions, quality work deserves a quality price.
Truth in Advertising – Read the fine print in advertised specials to find out exactly what the price includes, and request a firm price in writing before the work begins.
Training - Professional cleaning firms require management and employees to engage in formal training in a variety of cleaning disciplines, and these educational efforts will be ongoing.
Consumers should ask about the formal training background of technicians who will be cleaning their carpet.
Certification – Professional firms require Certification of technicians through relevant certification organizations or through comparable franchise.
Experience – The years of experience a firm has, combined with formal training programs, contribute significantly to the experience and proficiency of its employees.
Knowledgeable professional firms employ and train technicians who have the ability to answer basic questions regarding carpet performance and maintenance, as well as spotting and cleaning.
References – Consumers should ask for references from previous customers, and they should consult friends and business acquaintances about the reputation of the cleaning firm they are considering.
Fitz2Kleen Carpet and Upholstery cleaning specialists in Coventry, are happy to offer expert advice and services and all documentation relating to qualification, insurance and references is available on request.

carpet cleaning coventry
Attempting to remove stains from your carpet using products purchased from a supermarket can prove to be very costly.
The carpet below shows bleached areas which are a result of using such products.
The manufacturers claims that they will remove all kinds of stains easily may well be true in the beginning, what they fail to tell you is that they are very highly concentrated and if not rinsed thoroughly and neutralised will continue to work into your carpet long after you think you have finished removing the stains.
STOP!!!!!
Spillages and stains should only ever be blotted gently. Scrubbing causes the pile of your carpet to burst and as a result will give a worn and dirty appearance, while leaving the stain behind and lots of irreversible damage too.
If this happens to you call in reputable, qualified and insured professionals who know the correct chemicals and procedures to deal with such accidents, without causing further damage and costing you a small fortune to replace them.

carpet cleaning tips coventry
Have you heard it said that anyone can do any job if they have the right tools?
That might be a stretch but it is safe to say anyone can do a better job with the proper tools.
Important vacuum cleaner facts
Heading this list of carpet care tips is having a proper vacuum.
Getting yourself the best vacuum you can afford is the single most important step you can take in providing the care your carpeting needs.
The carpet industry is now rating vacuum cleaners to help you make an informed buying decision.
Criteria has been set for soil removal, air filtration, and damage to carpet fibers.
Machines that pass the test can display the Carpet and Rug Institute Green Label seal of approval.
Better vacuuming guaranteed
Because there is more contact with the carpet, it is tempting to set the rotating power brushes of your vacuum’s cleaning head to a low level.
That might seem reasonable, but did you know the contact is more damaging than helpful?
The integrity of the carpet fibers can be destroyed, causing worn areas to look dirtier than they really are.
If you have Berber carpets don’t vacuum them with the power cleaning attachment.
The rotating brushes can catch on the looped pile and pull long strands away from the carpet backing.
This is especially true if there are any seams in your installation.
Check the condition of your power head at regular intervals.
Loose or worn brushes, gouged or otherwise damaged plastic parts, or other obvious problems can cause abrasive damage to carpet fibers.
Carpet fibers that have been nicked and cut loose luster, are more easily pressed down under traffic, and allow increased dirt penetration of the fiber.
By vacuuming the high traffic areas from entry doors daily, other areas of the home will need less frequent care.
Now that may seem to you to be a lot of extra work, but it could actually mean less.
By concentrating on the dirtiest areas the cleaner ones won’t need to be vacuumed as often.
Your whole carpet will look better.
The make up of household dirt.
Do you have any idea what kinds of dirt and grime are being harbored in your carpeting? Several reliable sources have done breakdowns, and it looks something like this:
Sand 40%
Oxides 20%
Organic and synthetic fibers 20%
Oils and Resins 9%
Carbon 5%
Animal fats 4%
Moisture 2%
Vacuum cleaning can take care of the first three and some of the carbon and moisture.
Other cleaning methods have to be used to remove the others.
Pet dander and feathers are major allergens.
Keep forced air heating and air conditioning system filters clean and efficient by changing them regularly.
That might be a stretch but it is safe to say anyone can do a better job with the proper tools.

Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Coventry: YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Coventry: YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED: "Q- How often should l have my carpets cleaned? A- Most manufacturer’s recommend that you have your carpets professionally cleaned every 12..."
YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Q- How often should l have my carpets cleaned?
A- Most manufacturer’s recommend that you have your carpets professionally cleaned every 12 months for main area’s such as lounge’s, hallways and stairs etc. Bedroom’s should be cleaned every 2 - 3 years according to how much use they receive.
Q- How often should l have my upholstery cleaned?
A- Again the majority of manufacturer’s would say every 18 - 24 months.
Q- How long will it take my carpet to dry?
A- Most carpets are dry within 2 - 4 hrs and can usually be walked upon straight away as long as you do not walk dirt from outside onto a damp surface. The exact time depends on what your carpet is made of and how long the pile is. Generally speaking the shorter the pile the quicker it will dry and man made fibres tend to dry quicker than pure wool carpets. If the room is warm and well ventilated this will also speed up the drying process.
Q- My carpet is stained will it come out completely?
A- If a stain is black in colour this is usually the result of a spillage that has caused a sticky patch on your carpet which attracts dirt. This sort of stain almost always comes out completely. Problem stains are the highly coloured one’s. If your carpet has been stain proofed from new these will usually come out completely.However if your carpet is mainly made of wool these types of stains can be much improved but not always completely removed. In general wool carpets appear to stay cleaner longer as the natural fibre absorbs the dirt.But they are less stain resistant. Manmade fibre’s such as acrylic are more stain resistant in that most stains clean out easier but they show general soiling much quicker and therefore need cleaning more often.
Q- Do l need to empty the room before it is cleaned?
A- No. If you can take the small things of the floor we will move the main furniture. Things such as bookcase’s that lay flat on the carpet are better cleaned around as the carpet will not dry unless the air can get to it and it may smell. We recommend that any valuables or anything fragile such as pottery or vase’s should be taken out of the room to avoid any accidental damage.
Q- Does your cleaning process remove dust mites, stale smells etc?
A- Yes we have special treatments for all manner of problems pertaining to carpets & upholstery and will be happy to advise you on your best course of action. Removing these problems is only part of the process to do the job properly we need to make sure they don’t return so helping to determine the cause is an essential part of our service.
Q- What if l want my carpet or upholstery stain proofed?
A- We can provide this service but we would like you to be aware that with certain fibres these treatments actually make very little difference. If your carpet is acrylic or you upholstery is made of dralon then we would advise against this treatment as the additional cost is not in our opinion justified. Also the older a carpet becomes the fibres fray and are much more difficult to seal so because of this unless your carpet or upholstery was treated from new you should be aware that the stain protection may have a limited effect.
A- Most manufacturer’s recommend that you have your carpets professionally cleaned every 12 months for main area’s such as lounge’s, hallways and stairs etc. Bedroom’s should be cleaned every 2 - 3 years according to how much use they receive.
Q- How often should l have my upholstery cleaned?
A- Again the majority of manufacturer’s would say every 18 - 24 months.
Q- How long will it take my carpet to dry?
A- Most carpets are dry within 2 - 4 hrs and can usually be walked upon straight away as long as you do not walk dirt from outside onto a damp surface. The exact time depends on what your carpet is made of and how long the pile is. Generally speaking the shorter the pile the quicker it will dry and man made fibres tend to dry quicker than pure wool carpets. If the room is warm and well ventilated this will also speed up the drying process.
Q- My carpet is stained will it come out completely?
A- If a stain is black in colour this is usually the result of a spillage that has caused a sticky patch on your carpet which attracts dirt. This sort of stain almost always comes out completely. Problem stains are the highly coloured one’s. If your carpet has been stain proofed from new these will usually come out completely.However if your carpet is mainly made of wool these types of stains can be much improved but not always completely removed. In general wool carpets appear to stay cleaner longer as the natural fibre absorbs the dirt.But they are less stain resistant. Manmade fibre’s such as acrylic are more stain resistant in that most stains clean out easier but they show general soiling much quicker and therefore need cleaning more often.
Q- Do l need to empty the room before it is cleaned?
A- No. If you can take the small things of the floor we will move the main furniture. Things such as bookcase’s that lay flat on the carpet are better cleaned around as the carpet will not dry unless the air can get to it and it may smell. We recommend that any valuables or anything fragile such as pottery or vase’s should be taken out of the room to avoid any accidental damage.
Q- Does your cleaning process remove dust mites, stale smells etc?
A- Yes we have special treatments for all manner of problems pertaining to carpets & upholstery and will be happy to advise you on your best course of action. Removing these problems is only part of the process to do the job properly we need to make sure they don’t return so helping to determine the cause is an essential part of our service.
Q- What if l want my carpet or upholstery stain proofed?
A- We can provide this service but we would like you to be aware that with certain fibres these treatments actually make very little difference. If your carpet is acrylic or you upholstery is made of dralon then we would advise against this treatment as the additional cost is not in our opinion justified. Also the older a carpet becomes the fibres fray and are much more difficult to seal so because of this unless your carpet or upholstery was treated from new you should be aware that the stain protection may have a limited effect.
