Carpet cleaning scams in Raleigh happen. The old saying holds true, “If something seems unbelievable, it usually is.” It’s no different in the world of carpet cleaning and carpet cleaning scams. Rip-offs usually start when cut-rate cleaning companies come in and pressure you to buy additional services. It looks cheap at first, but not after you finish the add-ons. So the first thing to look out for is:
*Extremely Low Prices for Carpet Cleaning
At Ace Rug we’ve been told by customers that one of our competitors said for an additional charge he could add soap to the water. Are you kidding? That’s like a car salesman charging you extra for a steering wheel. Can you say … carpet cleaning scam?
These type cleaners are ill equipped, under insured and untrained. Think about the quality of the company you are allowing into your home. If a cheap carpet cleaner is allowed in your home, you will more than likely regret it. A good, reputable carpet cleaning company will not be cheap, but you can rest assured your carpet and your belongings are safe and secure and you won’t fall victim to unforeseen carpet cleaning scams.
* FALSE Advertising Ploys
Since they can’t compete on quality, service or experience many carpet cleaning companies resort to false advertising to boost their credibility. Some dry cleaning companies want you to believe “Hot water extraction or steam cleaning damages your carpet”. These claims simply aren’t true.
FACT!!! Leading carpet manufacturers recommend you have a true professional cleaning company use hot water extraction, also known as steam cleaning, to clean your carpets every 12-18 months. If dry cleaning your home’s carpet was indeed the better option, the carpet manufacturers would say so. They do not benefit from telling you otherwise.
