Three rooms of carpet in a home in Clinton, WA. The pet stains were all in one of them, the living area, so that is where the work went. Caleb's note: it came out great.
Pet Stains Concentrated in a Clinton Living Room
This is the usual pattern. Pets spend their day in the living room, close to their people, so that is where the accidents, the muddy paws and the favorite nap spots end up. The bedrooms were fine. The living area was where the stains were.
The photo is that living area when we were done: an empty room with grey carpet, a stone fireplace, and big windows looking out over the trees. You can see the cleaning strokes across the whole floor.
Cleaning Three Rooms When the Pet Stains Are in One
When the rest of the house is the same carpet, it pays to clean it all at once. A single cleaned room can look noticeably brighter than the rooms next to it, and the line where one room meets the next gives it away. Cleaning all three kept the carpet one color, and the extra stain treatment went where it was needed.
How We Handle Pet Stains in Carpet on South Whidbey
Each stain gets treated first, then the carpet is flushed with hot water and extracted with our truck-mounted system, which pulls the stain out from the base of the fibers instead of pushing it around. That is the difference between a stain that is gone and one that comes back when the carpet dries. If there is odor too, we plan for that separately. See pet stain and odor removal for how that works.
We cover Clinton from our Freeland shop, along with Langley, where we took pet stains out of a primary bedroom the same day.
Pet Stain Removal Questions
Why are pet stains always in the living room?
It is where pets spend their day, near their people, and often the spot closest to the door. Accidents, muddy paws and the places a pet likes to lie down all concentrate there, which is why one room can need far more attention than the rest of the house.
Can you clean just the stained room?
Yes, but if the other rooms are the same carpet, cleaning them together keeps everything one color. On this Clinton job we cleaned three rooms and focused the stain treatment on the living area.
Do you remove pet odor as well as stains?
We do. Visible stains and odor are related but not the same thing. When urine has reached the pad, the smell needs its own treatment. Tell us what you are seeing and smelling when you book and we will plan for it.
