			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Breeze Carpet Cleaners have been working in the carpet cleaning industry for many years, and in that time we have proven ourselves as a true market leader. We are committed to providing our customers with excellent cleaning results and great customer service. Unlike many companies within the industry, our main priority is customer satisfaction rather than a sole focus on profits.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>One of the things we are most proud of at Breeze is our affordability. We don’t claim to have the lowest rates in the country, but we do offer the best value for money. You might see steam carpet cleaning advertises at a fraction of our prices, but we are pretty certain that this is not the final price you will pay. We want to be as transparent as possible with our clients and so our prices are fully inclusive of all surcharges and VAT.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>There is nothing worse than finding out that you have paid out hard earned cash one goods or services that are not up to scratch. We pride ourselves on the high quality cleaning we are able to provide, and as such if you are ever dissatisfied with the result, we will return to clean the area all over again for you.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In steam carpet cleaning, equipment and machinery are everything. Whilst the experience and knowledge of your technician is important, the actual machinery used to clean the carpets is even more important. At Breeze we only ever use state of the art equipment which is capable of extracting enough liquid out of your carpets to prevent any mould or damp.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Waiting in the house all day for a delivery can be a complete nightmare, this is exactly why we offer you an exact appointment time. We listened to our customers and decided to provide appointments rather than window time slots to prevent disruption to your day. Now, when you contact us to book your cleaning, you will know exactly what time to expect us.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>#1: Expensive carpets are a waste of money</strong></p>
<p>Believing that high quality carpets are not worth the extra money is a big mistake. Although a discount carpet may be available for a fraction of the cost, the chances are that it will also last for a fraction of the time. A well-made, good quality carpet will cost a lot more than a cheap alternative, but given the right care and maintenance it should last for ten, twenty, or even thirty years.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>#2: A thin underlay will do the same job as a thick one</strong></p>
<p>Underlay is the soft spongy layer that gets put down underneath the carpet to protect it. By purchasing a cheap underlay you are compromising the life of the carpet above it. You may have bought the best possible and most expensive carpet, but with a poor underlay it will wear like a discount carpet.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>#3: I will need steam carpet cleaning in a couple of years</strong></p>
<p>Brand spanking new carpets may look dazzling and beautifully clean, but this will only last for a weeks or months. A new carpet will need steam carpet cleaning within six to 12 months just like any other carpet, old or new. Steam cleaning doesn’t just get rid of dirt and bacteria from carpets, it also helps protect the carpet fibres and increase the lifespan of the carpet.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>#4: I don’t need a professional company</strong></p>
<p>Whilst it is possible to hire or buy a steam carpet cleaning machine, it will not provide the same results as hiring a professional company to do the job. Carpet cleaners have access to industrial strength state-of-the-art machinery which provides a much better clean than any available to buy or hire. It is important that you also consider the consequences of using this type of machine as it could leave too much water behind in the carpet, causing mould or mildew.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>#5: Buy supermarket stain removal products</strong></p>
<p>When you get a stain on the carpet you may be tempted to dig out some chemical-based product from under the kitchen sink or pop to the shops to buy the most brightly coloured item on the shelf, but you should be contacting your local carpet cleaning company. The products found lining supermarket shelves should not go anywhere near your carpets as they are more likely to cause damage and strip the carpet of colour.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After weeks, months, and years of neglect is it any surprise that your carpets look dull and tired?

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>After the clean you will probably notice a huge difference in the look, feel and smell of your carpets – for the better hopefully! Of course this will not be good enough in all cases, and it is not good enough to do on a one off.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We all know that steam cleaning costs money, and sometimes if you are cleaning a large area it can cost quite a hefty sum, but it does save cash in the long term. Replacing a carpet is an expensive job, carpets are an investment designed to last for many years. As such, the carpet needs regular care and maintenance to ensure that it stays in a good condition for longer.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Some people believe that by purchasing a cheaper carpet or underlay they are saving themselves money. Whilst this might be true in the immediate short term, over a period of twenty or thirty years you will probably end up spending a whole heap more money on replacing the carpet – not to mention the time wasted.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Investing in a high quality carpet and underlay is absolutely essential. However, just as important is the steam cleaning programme you use in order to maintain the carpet. Wear and tear happens, it’s a fact of life, but frequent steam cleaning can make your carpet look better for longer, even add years onto its lifespan.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The first step to take once you have your new carpet installed is to find a reputable carpet cleaning company. Forming a good relationship with your carpet cleaner is important as you will be requiring their services on a regular basis for the foreseeable future.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>You will need to find out what technique the cleaner uses as nothing other than steam cleaning or hot water extraction should be used. Other methods such as dry cleaning or bonnet cleaning can actually cause damage to the carpet fibres and encourage re-soiling… something that you definitely want to avoid.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>By not cleaning your carpet you could be reducing its lifespan to as little as three years, but a professionally cleaned carpet is expected to remain in good condition for around 15 years. This will give you a good indication as to how often you would need to replace even a high quality carpet that is not maintained properly… now consider how often you might need to replace a cheap carpet!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It is a fact that frequent steam cleaning can extend the life of your carpet as it protects the fibres and revitalises its colour. In turn this can save homeowners hundreds or even thousands of pounds over a period of twenty or thirty years. Contact your local professional steam carpet cleaners today for a quotation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It’s the end of January, Christmas is all over with for another year and New Year’s resolutions went out the window last week, back to normality. Now the spring cleaning is on the horizon, and homeowners start to think about clearing out the mountain of junk they have collected over the past 12 months and giving the kitchen a good scrub. Will you think about cleaning your carpets too?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>If you want to ensure that your home is well and truly clean, it’s absolutely essential that you don’t forget your carpets. There is so much debris, dirt, allergens, dust, oils, and other pollutants living in the bottom of your carpet that by cleaning other areas and forgetting about this bacteria haven, your home will not be truly clean.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>To make sure that your carpets are not harbouring all sorts of unwanted guests, it is best to ask a professional steam cleaner to come in and treat the carpets. This usually needs to be done every 12 months, but your carpets could require cleaning as often as every 3 months if you have a busy family and pets.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It is a good idea to include steam carpet cleaning into your spring cleaning regime as it means that the whole house will be cleaned out at the same time, providing optimum results. By having your carpets cleaned on a regular basis you can prevent respiratory diseases and extend the lifespan of your carpet.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Vacuuming is also an important factor in the maintenance of your carpets, but this alone is not enough to ensure that your carpets are really clean. Steam cleaning will revitalise your carpets, strengthen the fibres and bring back the colour in dull carpets.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now is a good time to start thinking about and planning your major spring clean, so why not give us a call for a no obligation quotation? Steam carpet cleaning can help you make sure your home is prepared to face another tough year ahead.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is recommended that homeowners seek professional steam carpet cleaning around every 12 months, the actual frequency will depend on personal circumstances, to ensure that their carpets are in tip top condition. But, what can a professional offer that you can’t do yourself?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>High Quality Finish</strong></p>
<p>The equipment used by professional carpet cleaners, including ourselves, is known as a hot water extraction machine. This state of the art equipment is very expensive and of industrial strength, meaning that carpets are cleaned and dried much faster. Not only does this save on time and make carpet cleaning much more convenient, it also provides a much better finish.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Steam carpet cleaning is the only method to be recommended by the National Carpet Cleaners Association and all UK carpet manufacturers. When it is carried out by a professional technician it can leave carpets looking revitalised and refreshed. The cleaning ensures that all the dirt, oils, debris, allergens and other contaminants are completely removed from the carpet, but it also protects the fibres and could extend the life of the carpet by many years.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>If you are ever unsatisfied with the standard of our carpet cleaning, we will always return to clean the area again completely free of charge. All of our customers benefit from our 100% guarantee.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Unrivalled customer service</strong></p>
<p>Whilst the carpet cleaning finish is incredibly important it’s not the only thing that you should be concerned with when hiring a professional carpet cleaning company. Think about it, if you were to go to a restaurant which was renowned for its incredible food, would you return if the service was poor? Probably not. The same applies to any other service, including steam carpet cleaning.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Breeze Carpet Cleaners pride themselves on their high standards of customer service. Not only do we ensure that our customers are well looked after and informed about the steam cleaning we process, we go the extra mile and exceed our customer’s expectations.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We understand that waiting around for carpet cleaners to turn up is an inconvenience and can be time consuming. This is exactly why we are one of few companies that arrange specific appointments rather than simply offering a generic time frame.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Some carpet cleaning companies try to mask their prices so that customers end up paying far more than they originally thought the service would cost. This is not the case at Breeze, our prices are clearly displayed on our website, and if you’re still unsure you can contact us for a fully inclusive no obligation quotation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Experts in the carpet cleaning industry and consumers alike used to turn their nose up at steam carpet cleaning as it was seen as extremely time consuming and expensive. However, the industry as a whole has picked up in recent years, and significant developments in technology have meant that steam carpet cleaning is now the preferred method of cleaning.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Whilst steam cleaning has always been the most efficient method at removing traces of dirt, bacteria and other contaminants it was always avoided due to the time it took to dry. This led to an increase in the popularity of dry cleaning, but this method is not able to offer the same standards of cleaning, and only really cleans the surface of carpet fibres.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Previously steam carpet cleaning used to take a very long time to dry as the equipment available was not powerful enough to extract large volumes of water from the carpet fibres.  Thanks to improvements in technology over recent years, steam cleaning now uses what is known as a hot water extraction machine.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This equipment pumps the cleaning solution into the carpet, loosens any stains or compacted debris, and then both the fluids and dirt is removed at incredibly high pressures, leaving behind much cleaner and healthier looking carpets.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Steam carpet cleaning is the only method to be recommended by all UK carpet manufacturers and industry bodies such as the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning &amp; Certification (IICRC) and National Carpet Cleaners Association (NCCA).</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>This highly recommended cleaning technique is not only capable of cleaning carpets, but also extending their lifespan. It has been proven that frequent thorough steam cleaning treatments can help improve the strength of carpet fibres and enhance the colour of the carpet. This means you’re your carpets could last for years longer than if they are not maintained.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is nothing worse than finding large black and green spots lurking in the corners of your ceiling or behind large items of furniture. A feeling of dread will fill your stomach as you come to realise that your home is suffering from damp. One of the most common causes of damp in homes around the UK is condensation due to a lack of air circulation. Damp and mould is not only a major concern for the bricks and mortar of your home, but also the furnishings inside it.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Carpets that have been subjected to moisture from a leaking pipe, dodgy radiator, windows or doors can start to feel the impact of damp. The sheer cost of replacing all the carpets in your home should be enough to motivate you to do an annual damp check as the damp may not yet be showing its most noticeable signs, such as mouldy walls.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The moisture that has found its way into the carpet fibres can start to produce bacteria and fungus which grows on both sides of the carpet. There are many different types of mould, with some of them being very hazardous to your health as they can cause and aggravate a number of respiratory conditions.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>You might think that pulling out the damp-ridden carpets and replacing them with brand spanking new ones is the only way to go. Whilst this should eradicate the problem it may also break the bank! The cost of replacing carpets can reach into the thousands, depending on the quality of the carpets and the size of your home. Plus, the carpet you are about to take to the dumping ground could have another ten or twenty years of life left in it.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Professional steam carpet cleaning is the answer to all of your prayers. By using extremely powerful industrial hot water extraction machinery you should be able to treat your carpets for damp and mould, and prevent it from coming back. The sooner you ask a professional cleaner to treat your damp ridden carpets the sooner you and your family can go back to enjoy a healthy living environment.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In order to put a complete stop to any future damp problems in your carpets it is important that you find the source of the damp and fix it as soon as possible.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>f you have a home with carpets throughout you will probably be aware of the cost of steam carpet cleaning. Many people assume that hiring a professional cleaning company to clean their carpets will cost a lot of money. In fact, they couldn’t be more wrong.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The cost of getting professional steam carpet cleaning is generally not that much more than hiring the equipment to do the job yourself. The cost of supermarket cleaning products and the hire of machinery over ten or twenty years could end up being twice as much as hiring Breeze Carpet Cleaners.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Not only do you have to find the time to clean the carpets yourself, you also need to ensure that you know what you are doing. Carpets can be made from a wide range of materials such as synthetic or wool, and the way in which each of these fabrics is treated is very different.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It is incredibly easy to make a mistake when cleaning a carpet, or do damage through a lack of knowledge and experience. Just one tiny error could leave you having to spend a small fortune rectifying the problem.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Our carpet cleaning technicians are highly trained with many years of experience behind them, and are capable of working with tough commercial carpets right through to delicate antique rugs. No challenge would prove to be too difficult for our cleaners, so you won’t have to worry about any damage to your carpets.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It is recommended that you avoid off the shelf cleaning and stain removal products at all costs, as they will only cause more harm than good. These solutions are usually jam packed with chemicals which often strip the colour from the carpet fibres, and can even cause them to breakdown, leaving your carpet looking fuzzy.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Professional steam carpet cleaning effectively removes all the debris and bacteria from the carpet, leaving behind stronger fibres and a much cleaner carpet. By getting your carpets cleaned on a regular basis you could save yourself hundreds, or even thousands of pounds over the years.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you ever thought that the strain of everyday life was beginning to get on top of you and wear you down? I’m sure you have, we all have similar moments, but it’s not just us humans that share this feeling, inanimate objects do too to a certain extent. Your carpets are battered and bruised throughout the day from dirty shoes banging up and down on them to pets rolling around on them, and even kids spilling food and drink.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Just as a sit down and a cup of tea might make you feel a little brighter about your day, your carpets need looking after too. Although steam cleaning is incredibly important for the health of the carpet, it is not give you an excuse to forget about the vacuuming. This bog standard household chore could save you thousands of pounds over the years, and ensure that your carpets remain looking healthier for longer.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Professional steam carpet cleaners will always recommend that home owners vacuum their carpets as often as possible, as it prevents any loose debris being worked into the depths of the carpet by shoes. The more often you vacuum the less likely this dirt will end up compacting at the base of the fibres, and the longer your carpets will remain fluffy and new.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Vacuuming is a really important part of carpet maintenance but it’s never really done often enough in homes around the country. By vacuuming regularly you will not only benefit from cost saving but could also be improving the quality of the living environment for your family.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Vacuuming is something that should be done on a frequent basis, from once a day to once a week depending on the level of traffic in your home. Whereas steam cleaning only needs to be done between every 3 and 18 months, again the exact frequency differs between households.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Regular vacuuming combined with steam cleaning can keep carpets looking for newer for longer and prevent premature replacement. The two types of carpet maintenance go hand in hand, and without one half of the programme, your carpets may not last anywhere near as long as they should.</p>
