Carpet Cleaning: Cost vs. Reputation
When looking for a professional carpet cleaning services, many consumers will fall in to one of two camps. On one side, you’ll see consumers that do not care to research past customer feedback, but are only concerned on which company can provide the lowest advertised rate. On the other end of the spectrum, you’ll see consumers that do extensive amounts of research that are willing to pay for the top of the line technology for the best experience possible.
Here at Home Pride Rug Cleaning, we believe you shouldn’t have to fall on one end of the spectrum versus the other. Our focus is educating the public about the industry and making sure consumers are able to make the decision that works best for their respective situation. With this in mind, consider the below insights regarding cost and reputation when it comes to hiring a professional carpet cleaner.
Cost
Understandably, you probably have a set budget when it comes to carpet cleaning. Whether it be a loose or firm set budget, you should know exactly what you are paying and the specific services you are receiving. You should hire a carpet cleaning service that falls within your budget, but also provides you with all the necessary services that will get the job done.
Often times, service providers are able to offer a lower rate because they are cutting out costly portions of the service. While you may be getting a lower rate, your carpet may not be nearly as clean as you had hoped. Bacteria and dirt may remain in the carpet, as proper chemicals were not used to treat the carpet or rug. Another way service providers can offer a lower rate is by using a heavy amount of hidden fees. These providers will quote a low number that fits well within your budget, but once the job is done and all the hidden fees are revealed, you end up paying much more than you originally expected.
Reputation
Beyond cost, you should aim to find a carpet cleaning service provider that has an established reputation within the community you live in. For starters, a carpet cleaner with a good reputation should be able to provide you with an honest quote upfront without the hidden fees. In addition, you should be able to rest easy knowing you are getting a complete job performed on your rugs or carpets. Your carpet cleaning service provider should be IICRC certified and should be able to prove this certification by showing you the certificate.
Cost and Reputation in Harmony
No consumer should have to decide cost or reputation over the other. You should be able to know you are getting a reputable service at a reasonable cost without the hidden fees. By considering Home Pride Rug Cleaning, you can rest easy knowing you are getting the best of both worlds.
