About Chem-Dry Somerset West Carpet Cleaners

Chem-Dry Somerset is part of the global Chem-Dry Company whose headquarters are based in the U.S.A. As a franchise branch we benefit from the time and resources that Chem-Dry invests in engineering and technical advances of its equipment and cleaning solutions. The company spends considerable sums annually on new carpet cleaning tools and programmes to ensure that Chem-Dry stays highly favourable with consumers and stands out from its cleaning competitors.

Chem-Dry Somerset maintains the core Chem-Dry principles of giving its customers the best possible professional cleaning service that promotes healthier homes and protects the environment. Chem-Dry carries our “Green” label proudly and takes our commitment to customer service seriously.

The idea of Chem-Dry was born in the 1970’s when its founder, Robert Harris, was inspired by an unassuming element – soda water. The simple concept was that at a molecular level, carbonated water has explosive properties and produces thousands of tiny bubbles that can blast dirt and stains from carpet and upholstery fibres.

As such The Natural® was born, Chem-Dry’s unique carpet cleaning solution. It goes without saying that The Natural® uses only pure water and a hot carbonation cleaning system which is free from chemicals or any harsh cleaning emulsions.

From this the Chem-Dry slogan was born, Drier, Cleaner, Healthier. The company has since grown in leaps and bounds and currently holds 8% of the market share in carpet and upholstery cleaning.

A Deeper Clean for a Healthier Home Did you know your carpets help filter the air inside your home? Carpet fibers trap dirt and allergens, which keeps them from circulating in the air you breathe.

But without regular deep cleaning, dirty carpets will become full and unable to trap additional dirt and grime.

That’s where Chem-Dry comes in! With our Hot Carbonating Extraction (HCE) process, we can deep clean your carpets. This improves indoor air quality and delivers a healthier home.

Our innovative cleaning process uses about 80% less water than traditional steam cleaning. That means faster drying times and less risk of mold or mildew growth due to wet carpets.

Unlike other cleaners, Chem-Dry doesn’t rely on harsh chemicals or soapy detergents. Instead, we use a Chem-Dry Green Certified solution called The Natural®. This exclusive product is at the heart of our carpet and upholstery cleaning services.

Instead of using detergents, The Natural uses carbonation to clean carpet fibers. The solution releases millions of tiny carbonated bubbles that reach deep into your carpets. These bubbles loosen dirt, grit, and grime and lift them to the surface. At that point, our PowerHead® extraction equipment whisks the dirt out of your carpets.

The solution is based on ingredients copied from Mother Nature. That makes The Natural® a perfect choice for a healthier home.

Your home is filled with odors that get trapped in the fibers of your carpet. From cooking to pets and kids, some of these stubborn odors can linger even after a professional cleaning. Our carpet cleaning company has the solution to lingering smells. With our deodorizer, we can knock out even the toughest of odors, leaving your home smelling clean and fresh. Even odors from pet accidents are no match for Chem-Dry! Our revolutionary Pet Urine Removal Treatment (P.U.R.T.®) is perfect for pet urine stains. In fact, the P.U.R.T. process is proven to remove 99.9% of pet urine odors from carpets.

What makes Chem-Dry different from other carpet cleaners?

Chem-Dry uses a unique cleaning process called Hot Carbonating Extraction.

This process uses the natural cleaning power of carbonation to remove soil and stains. (Think of how club soda can be used to get stains out of clothes!)

Hot Carbonating Extraction not only delivers a deeper and healthier clean — it also uses roughly 80% less water than traditional steam cleaning and hot water extraction systems.

Do I need to vacuum my carpets before cleaning?

Unless otherwise asked, homeowners do not need to vacuum their carpets before a Chem-Dry cleaning. Before we start the Hot Carbonating Extraction process, we will vacuum the entire carpet with a commercial, HEPA-filter vacuum cleaner.

How long will it take for my carpets to dry?

After a Chem-Dry cleaning, it takes only 1 to 2 hours for carpets to dry. This is a fraction of the time you can expect with steam cleaning, in which dry times can last 24 hours or more! Our Hot Carbonating Extraction process uses roughly 80% less water, which reduces the dry time. As a result, it also reduces the risk of mold or mildew growing while your carpets dry.

How long will it take to clean my carpets?

The amount of time needed for a Chem-Dry floor cleaning can depend on the number of rooms to clean, the size of each room, and the level of soiling in the carpets. Smaller jobs may take 1 to 2 hours. Larger jobs may take the better part of a morning or afternoon. To get a more accurate estimate, contact your nearest Chem-Dry location!

How often should i clean my carpets?

Chem-Dry recommends a professional cleaning every 6 to 12 months for most carpets. Regular cleaning will prevent staining, preserve your carpet’s appearance, and remove destructive dirt and grime. At the same time, it can help improve indoor air quality by removing non-living allergens from the fibers.

Approved by the Carpet & Rug Institute

Our unique cleaning process is not only trusted by thousands of homeowners — it also bears the Carpet & Rug Institute’s Seal of Approval! The Seal of Approval is an independent program that grades carpet cleaning products and systems. It measures factors like how well cleaning tools and products remove soil from carpets, how long it takes for carpets to resoil after cleaning, and whether the system causes damage or discoloring to carpet fibers.
