Professional Post-Thanksgiving Cleaning Services by Dry Concepts

If you’re hosting a Thanksgiving party, the fun can wreak havoc on any home. With our post-Thanksgiving cleaning service, Dry Concepts can help remove holiday mess, deep-clean carpets, and restore every surface to its best.

Thanksgiving Cleaning Services to Tackle Holiday Messes

Did you know that 28 percent of Americans have at least 12 people at their dinner table for Thanksgiving? What does this mean? Accidents are going to happen. With people coming and going from the table, someone is bound to spill something.

If relatives are staying throughout the weekend, your home will get messy anyway. Cleaning up is the worst part, which is why it’s a good idea to take a break and leave the cleaning to the experts.

Here’s why you should call a professional cleaning service after Thanksgiving!

Prepare for Your Guests

First of all, you can try to avoid hiring a professional cleaning service. Keep these tips in mind before your Thanksgiving guests arrive.

  • Install interior matting systems within your carpets around the dinner table.
  • Wines and spills are the most common accidents. Don’t let the stain set. Use a pinch of salt on the stain.
  • Use a hot water machine to get the down and dirty stains from grandpa tracking mud on his shoes.
  • If grandma’s dog had an accident, use baking soda and let it sit overnight. Vacuum the carpet the next day.
  • For any oil stains, use a paper towel over the spill and iron the towel.

The above tips help but depending on how severe the accident is, it’s time to call a professional carpet cleaner. There’s no need to panic!

How Often Should You Do Professional Cleaning?

To keep your carpets and upholstery looking their best, experts recommend having your carpets cleaned every 12–18 months. Regular cleaning helps maintain the integrity of the fibers, prolongs the life of your carpets, and keeps your home free from allergens, dirt, and bacteria that build up over time.

If you’re hosting large gatherings or holidays like Thanksgiving, it’s especially important to consider scheduling a professional cleaning both before and after the event. A pre-holiday cleaning ensures your home looks fresh and inviting for guests, while a post-holiday cleaning tackles any stains, spills, or messes that occur during the festivities.

Homes with children, pets, or high foot traffic may require more frequent cleaning to maintain a fresh and clean appearance. Children and pets can introduce additional wear and tear, including food spills, mud tracks, and pet hair, while high-traffic areas are prone to dirt accumulation and flattened fibers. For these situations, scheduling a cleaning every 6–12 months might be necessary to keep your carpets and upholstery in top condition.

Additionally, routine professional cleaning can help improve indoor air quality. Carpets often trap dust, pollen, and other allergens that can circulate in your home. By removing these particles regularly, you’ll create a healthier environment for your family, especially for those with allergies or respiratory issues.

What’s the Cleaning Process?

It’s super simple!

When you hire a professional cleaning service like Dry Concepts, you’re getting the best care for your carpets and surfaces.

-Hot Water Extraction: Often called “steam cleaning,” this process sprays hot water onto your carpet and then extracts it along with dirt, grime, and allergens.

-Cleaning Solutions: Professionals use specialized solutions tailored to your carpet type, ensuring it looks clean and refreshed.

-Drying Techniques: Powerful extraction machines ensure your carpets are only slightly damp after cleaning, significantly reducing drying time.

This method not only leaves your carpets spotless but also helps prolong their lifespan.

Can You Do Carpet Cleaning Yourself?

Sure.

There’s a do-it-yourself steam cleaning machine available for rent, usually at the local grocery store. You can even buy a fancy carpet cleaning machine for a couple hundred dollars.

While there are DIY carpet cleaning options, there are some risks to consider:

-Lower Temperatures: DIY machines don’t heat the water to the same high temperatures as professional equipment, making them less effective at removing deep stains and bacteria.

-Weaker Suction: These machines don’t extract as much water or dirt, leaving carpets damp for longer periods and increasing the risk of mold or mildew.

-Time-Consuming: Renting, operating, and cleaning a machine can take hours, and results may still not match professional standards.

Tips for DIY Carpet Cleaning

If you choose to clean your carpets yourself, keep these tips in mind:

-Drying Time: Use fans, open windows, or a dehumidifier to accelerate the drying process and prevent moisture from lingering in the carpet fibers.

-Pre-Treatment: Spot-treat any significant stains before running the machine for better results.

-Follow Instructions: Use the right cleaning solution and follow the machine’s instructions carefully to avoid damaging your carpets.
