Carpet Cleaning Newington in Edinburgh

Restaurant Carpet Cleaning Newington Edinburgh 

Have the carpets at your place of work or business seen better days?  

Regular carpet cleaning is an important task that helps to maintain the professional appearance of your establishment and it also prolongs the life of the carpet, saving you money in the long term. 

This job was taken from one of our regular Indian restaurant’s clients based in the Newington area of Edinburgh. It’s a very busy restaurant with high footfall.  

The buildup of soilage in this type of environment is what is known in the trade as “black top”. This black top is congealed oil and grease that’s been tracked in from the kitchen when the waiting staff are working. Add to that, customers spillages, and overtime you have a hard encrusted (and ingrained!) soilage on top of the carpet. 

Removing black top can be a real challenge to novice carpet cleaners. Usually, a hot enzyme detergent and high heat is enough to break it down. And sometimes you have to score the surface of it before applying the detergent to allow the product to penetrate the fibers.

Carpet Cleaning Blackhall in Edinburgh EH4

Rust stain removal carpet cleaning Blackhall Edinburgh 

Carpet Cleaning Blackhall. Rust staining on the carpet around the pipes of the radiator is a common sight. It’s actually a tricky stain to remove. Its not as straight forward as using a rust removal acid. There needs to be a combination of products. Luckly DirtMaster can fix this for you! 

The black sludge that comes from leaky radiators is called Magnetite. This black substance is basically dissolved and rusted pipework of the central heating system. It develops when air and water react with ferrous components inside of the radiator. 

In the photo below, a plumber and heating engineer who’s a regular customer of ours called us on behalf of his client. They had this unsightly black mark on their wool carpet that had happened over the weekend when their radiator leaked. The job was in the Blackhall area of Edinburgh. Thankfully the client hadn’t tried any DIY attempts to remove the stain from the carpet. Excessive scrubbing and the shop bought cleaning products can sometimes make things worse!

I hope you can see from the before and after photos that we were successful in fully removing the rust stain and finished off by cleaning the whole carpet. The client was over the moon as we managed to save them a small fortune on replacement costs and the hassle of replacing the carpet. The carpet in question is over 20 years old and still in very good condition. Hopefully the owner can get another 20 years’ use out of it.

Red wine removal carpet cleaning in Blackford Edinburgh

Pictured here is lovely Afghan Ziegler rug that has unfortunately had a red wine spilled on it. This beautiful hand knotted wool rug can be a challenge to clean and remove stains from, so its highly advisable to seek professional advice from a carpet cleaner than trying to tackle the job yourself.

This client from the Blackford area of Edinburgh bought this wool Afghan rug in Turkey on holiday. It has been down for five years and never been cleaned before she was worried cleaning might somehow damage the fibres or the rug may lose its colour. She was correct in thinking that DIY attempts of cleaning could damage the rug and also an untrained cleaner could also be too aggressive or use the wrong cleaning products and create unreversible damage to the rug.

When the red wine spillage happened, they were forced to find a professional carpet cleaner. Luckly the client did thier research and a friend of theirs who we’ve cleared high end rugs for in the past recommended DirtMaster.

Needless to say, the customer over the moon with the results and is now a regular carpet cleaning client of ours.

Carpet Cleaning in The Grange Edinburgh EH9 – Coffee Stain Removal

Posted on by

Carpet Cleaning The Grange Edinburgh

Imagine spilling a full cup of black coffee on your brand new, newly laid wool carpet! Well, this is exactly what happed to this client based in The Grange district of Edinburgh.

The new wool carpet on their stair case and landing was all of 2 days old before the incident happened.

Luckly, they didn’t attempt to clean it themselves with a shop bought stain remover, and making things a lot worse but instead called DirtMaster. Off the shelf stain removers are generally no wool safe, and can permanently damage wool carpets and can also set stains in. It’s always best to call a professional carpet cleaner when dealing with stains like this and especially important when you have wool carpets.

Using our wool safe carpet cleaning stain removers, we managed to remove all of the coffee from the carpet and the stain was vastly reduced. After rinsing the stain remover and coffee out of the carpet, we then applied a mild hydrogen peroxide solution, applied heat (a hair dryer) and managed to remove the stain completely. As you can image the customer was over the moon!

We then followed up with a full cleaning of the stair carpet using a wool safe acid rinse product and then applied a stain guard to the carpets. The acid side carpet cleaning solution helps the protector bond to the wool fibers of the carpet. This protection will help with the longevity of the carpet and protect the carpet from any spillages in the future.

If your based in The Grange EH9 or anywhere in Edinburgh or the surrounding Lothian region, DirtMaster can take care of all your carpet cleaning, tile and grout cleaning or upholstery cleaning needs.

No job too big or small. Please don’t hesitate to call us for a free no obligation quote.
