The biggest difference is that H.T. Enterprises does not use as much water as a steam cleaner. The main reason for this is that H.T. Enterprises' cleaning solution is hot, carbonated mineral water, not soap based, so it does not take as much water to extract it out of the carpet.
Within 1-2 hours. Since H.T. Enterprises does not use as much water, your carpets dry faster and have less chance of molds developing in over-wet carpets.
Besides carpet cleaning, H.T. Enterprises offers a wide range of cleaning services, including area rugs and upholstery cleaning. We have specialty products for tough problems too, such as pet urine and odor, and red stain removal. We also have a water damage specialist on call 24 hours.
The cushions on the upholstery will usually have a tag that says "S" or "W". The "S" means solvent or dry-cleanable, and the "W" means water-based cleanable. Sometimes the tag might say "S/W" so that either method of cleaning will be acceptable. It is important to go by the method of cleaning recommended by the manufacturer for optimal cleaning results. If there is no tag, our technicians are trained to know how to test the upholstery for which type of cleaning method will work best.
No. Ideally, if a person can be there just to let our technician in and get started, then go about their errands, etc. A key can also be left under the mat, and the job pre-paid with any major credit card.
Our main cleaning solution is safe and non-toxic.
What kind of prep work do I need to do before the technician arrives?
Just move any breakables, or small stuff out of the way. We will move what one technician can safely move (such as couches, loveseats, coffee tables). We will not move any computers, televisions, stereos, electronics, china cabinets, pianos, and in bedrooms we only clean the traffic areas.

H.T. Enterprises accepts all major credit cards, checks, and cash. If paying with cash, please have the exact amount.
Not long at all, usually within a couple days. If you are looking for a morning appointment, it is best to schedule a week in advance, since these time slots fill the fastest.
After measuring all the areas to be cleaned, we vacuum and do spot treatment first, then the carpet cleaning. The hot, carbonated mineral water is sprayed on the carpet and allowed to set for a few minutes, and then we extract it out using our buffer and pads.
