What Do They Mean by Environmentally SAFE?

Dream Catcher Carpet Cleaning (DCCC) has implemented Native American philosophy, our company must use solutions that takes into consideration the impact, or "environmental footprint" of the ingredients we use. DCCC believes that green is a process, not just a new ingredient in a cleaning solution. Cleaning green recognizes the connectivity of the entire cleaning process, including the cleaning technician.

One of the questions you should be asking yourself, and educating your customers about is this: "what does green really mean?" There are at least eight ways that we see "green" could be measured when you are looking at the impact of cleaning chemical solutions on the world around us.

1. Outdoor Environmental Impact and Footprint

Are the cleaning solutions rapidly biodegradable? What impact does it have on the environment to access the raw ingredients that make up those cleaning solutions?
2. Indoor Environmental Quality

The cleaning green process should not only improve the appearance of the surface being cleaned, it should also improve the environmental quality by removing soil, allergens, pollutants, contaminants, and particles from the indoor environment. It should do this without the overuse of the "green cleaning" solutions.
3. Sustainability and the Use of Renewable Resources

What are the sources for the ingredients that make up the "green cleaning" solutions? Many surfactants and most solvents are derived from petroleum oil - a limited resource that requires environmental impact to extract or pump. We use safer and effective cleaning detergents that are comprised of surfactants derived from plants and seeds. These are renewable resources that can be sustained over a long period of time. However, there are still some surfactants that are considered green even though their source is not readily renewable, simply because they are from a natural environment.
4. Packaging and Recycling Issues

Are the cleaning solutions packaged in containers (bottles and boxes)which can easily and readily be recycled? Does the company using those solutions take the time and effort to make sure they are recycled rather than ending up in landfills? How much recycled material is used to make the bottle and box in the first place?
5. Reducing Use of Resources

The more concentrated the cleaning solution is, the less resources are used to transport it from the manufacturer to the user. Concentration and dilution rates are critical parts of the cleaning green process. Generally, the less cleaning solution we have to use, the better.
6. Health Impact upon the Occupants of the Home or Business, as Well as the Cleaning Technician Themselves

Are the cleaning solutions safer to use and non-toxic? Do they contribute to issues of those who are chemically sensitive with strong fragrances or dyes? What about the impact on the cleaning technician who is exposed to that cleaning solution day in and day out?
7. Impact of the "New" Green Chemistry upon the Construction and Texture of the Surface Being Cleaned

If these "green" cleaning solutions truly are "new" technology, how do we know what their impact is on the surface being cleaned? Traditional cleaning solutions have been used on carpets, hard floors, countertops, bathroom fixtures and more for years and years. Should we just assume that a new chemical does not have any effect on the construction and texture of those surfaces?
8. Cleaning Effectiveness

This may well be the most important measurement of whether the solution is truly "green." If cleaning is defined as the "proper removal, collection, and disposal of unwanted matter from a surface or environment," then cleaning itself is a "green process." We want to make sure it breaks down, dissolves, emulsifies, and allows for complete removal of the soils, allergens, particulates, contaminants, and pollutants from the surface being cleaned. If a cleaning technician is trying to clean an extremely soiled surface, and the "green" cleaning solution is not effectively doing it, then the natural tendency is to use more of the cleaning solution. This can lead to the overuse or misuse of the "green" cleaning chemical. A build up of "plant or seed derived" surfactants on a surface being applied and not extracted, can lead to a "mold farm" of left behind surfactants, certainly not a "green cleaning" principle.

It does not take a whole lot of education to realize this concept of "green cleaning" is more complex than just switching ingredients in a chemical. There are all kinds of cleaning product "certification programs" out there for "green" chemicals. However, there is no program that takes into account all eight of these dynamics. Many of the rules and standards within these programs actually conflict with each other. There are systems which evaluate the cleaning procedures as part of the "green cleaning" process that do not measure in any way whether the procedures and chemistry actually work!

Cleaning green puts just as much emphasis upon the process and the procedures and the overall dedication of the cleaning technicians and the cleaning company as it does on the cleaning solution itself. To market green cleaning any other way to the consumer is only going to contribute to a hugely potential of "false security." As Dr. Michael Berry has stated, doing the right thing also needs to become doing the rational thing."

So if your company decides to market and offer this to your cleaning customers, consider the idea of marketing "cleaning green" rather than just "green cleaning." You'll be more truthful in your approach and educate the customer at the same time. By using Bridgepoint Green Balance Carpet Cleaning products, and the cleaning green process principles that go along with Dream Catcher Carpet Cleaning, you'll have everything you need. The best part is that you can rest assured these cleaning solutions and process actually work. By using products like the Bridgepoint has you know that they have been independently tested for cleaning effectiveness. They have been independently tested to make sure they have no negative impact upon the construction or texture of the carpet. They have been independently verified to ensure they are not excessively alkaline in nature. And the have been independently tested to make sure they keep the surface cleaner longer by not contributing to rapid re-soiling. They contain surfactants that are readily biodegradable. Perhaps best of all, they contain no solvents (no intentionally added glycol ethers, terpenes, alcohol).

Our Commitment to "Green" As An Operational Process at Dream Catcher Carpet Cleaning is in accordance with the products we use from Bridgepoint.

Why is your steam cleaning system for carpets and rugs superior?

Hot water extraction, also known as steam cleaning, is the recommended approach for most carpets. We use water that is heated to 230 degrees and a powerful, German engineered, vacuum to deeply clean and extract all of the dirt, impurities and pet urine that can accumulate in your carpet and the pad.

Does it matter if a carpet cleaning company is insured?

Our company has a business insurance policy so that you can be sure we are adequately covered.

What is the typical drying time for after the carpet cleaners finish?

Our professional cleaning unit is truck-mounted and the vacuum is quite powerful. This allows us to remove almost all of the water that is used to clean your carpets and area rugs. We also implement the use of downdraft fans to speed up the drying time. As a result, the average drying time is about 6-8 hours. Your carpets or rugs will feel dry to the touch at that time, but you should wait to move any wood furniture to the area for 24 hours. This level of expertise and service is just one more reason to trust us for your home cleaning needs.

What will it cost to clean the carpets in my home?

The cost of your professional carpet cleaning services is based on the square footage of the carpet or area rug. You will also only be charged for the open areas that we clean, not the full square footage of the room. We only charge for the areas we clean. Carpet cleaners should be fair and we are dedicated to excellent services at a fair price.

Can you clean pet stains, dog and cat urine and pet odor?

We all love our pets, but we should be aware that they can sometimes have accidents. When their urine mixes with moisture, it creates an alkaline salt that gives off an unpleasant odor. Moreover, the area where the urine is spilled can become a fertile breeding ground for bacteria. There are various methods available for addressing this issue. First Option: If the carpet is severely dirty, it will be necessary to remove it and clean both sides. Additionally, the padding will have to be swapped out, and the will need to be treated with a Bio-modifier and sealed. Second Option: For cases that are moderately severe, we can use our decontamination products extensively on the affected area, and clean the area further using a subsurface cleaning tool. Third Option: For slight contamination, we will use the Urine decontamination product on the surface. After application, we will allow it to rest and then extract it. An enzyme post-treatment will be applied to all options.

Do You Guarantee that you can remove pet stains from our carpets?

Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee pet stain removal due to the numerous factors that play a role in both the formation and removal of such stains. Urine stains from pets can have different characteristics depending on factors such as the age of the pet, any medications they may be taking, and the dyes in their food that were not fully metabolized. Another factor to consider is whether the urine was from the morning or the afternoon. Additional variables that may affect the outcome include the duration of the stain and any previous treatment it may have received prior to our arrival. We possess extensive expertise and certification from the IICRC, which means we will exercise utmost caution and deliver optimal results for you.

How Do I Prepare My Carpets for Cleaning?

To ensure smooth cleaning, kindly clear furniture of any lamps, knickknacks, electronics, and plants. We can help move light furniture such as sofas, coffee tables, and nightstands. However, we cannot move large furniture such as beds, china cabinets, pianos, dressers with mirrors, and other immovable items. If you want those areas cleaned, please move the items before we arrive.

What is the Recommended Frequency for Cleaning My Carpets?

Most people opt for professional carpet cleaning once a year, although the carpet cleaning industry recommends doing it every 18 months. Insoluble soil can damage carpet fibers by scratching and causing marring.As, we produce a biofilm consisting of shed skin and oils that can transfer onto surfaces in our homes. Over time, this biofilm can begin to emit unpleasant odors. To maintain good indoor air quality, reduce allergens, and keep your home clean for pets and children, it's recommended to have your carpet cleaned at least once a year.

What services to do provide in addition to carpet cleaning?

Grout Cleaning:

As professional carpet cleaners, we have the steam cleaning equipment that is perfect for grout cleaning. The steam cleaning capability of truck mounted carpet cleaners are perfect for safely removing stains from the grout in your kitchen, bathroom and shower areas.

Area Rug Cleaning:

Many customers try to clean their rugs with rented carpet cleaning equipment. The advantage of a professional carpet cleaner for your oriental rugs, area rugs and large bounded carpets is that those types of carpet cleaners are not strong enough to extract all of the oils, dirt and stains from your rugs. It is important to periodically have a professional carpet cleaner take care of your area rug cleaning.

Upholstery Cleaning:

Sofa and upholstery cleaning services are a perfect addition when you have carpet cleaners already in your home. You don't need your couch cleaned as frequently as your carpets, but periodic upholstery cleaning service is going to remove the stains, odors and dirt that build up over time.

Pet Stain Cleaning:

Many home owners are tempted to save money from a carpet cleaning service by renting a machine at the grocery store. These type of carpet cleaners are just not capable of extracting all of the urine that seeps deep into the fibers of our carpet. The best carpet cleaning in the metro area for pet stain and odor removal will be with the top-line carpet cleaning equipment used by Dream Catcher. We are a family-owned and operated carpet cleaning business, conveniently located near you in Thornton. Our clients appreciate our dedicated customer service approach to every job.
