Frequently Asked Questions about ToowooMBA Carpet Cleaning

  • How long does carpet steam cleaning take?

    Most standard 4-bedroom, 1 loungeroom homes take around the 1 to 1 and a half hour mark  to clean, depending on the level of soiling and accessibility. Larger homes or heavily soiled carpets may take longer. We can confirm an estimated time over the phone or a more fixed time when we arrive. 

  • How long before I can walk on the carpets again?

    It really depends on the amount of traffic and the area/environment the property is in. 


    It is recommended by the manufacturer to have the carpets professional steam cleaned every 12 months. This is actually part of your new carpet warranty. Not having them cleaned can void your 25-year warranty so always keep the receipts.  


    Generally, when homes have children or pets we recommend cleaning the carpet every 6 months as more foot traffic (especially barefoot) comes from kids and pets. Also, the potential for accidents and food spills is higher or more frequent.

  • Will steam cleaning remove all stains and odours?

    Yes, professional carpet cleaning is better than doing it yourself, for a number of reasons.


    Firstly, professionals use truck-mounted steam cleaning machines worth $30,000-$40,000. Truck-mounted machines are expensive because they do such a great job. In comparison to store hire machines, the difference is chalk and cheese.


    Truckmounts deliver 95C+ at the wand whereas hire machines only use water that comes from your tap. Once you bucket it in, it loses heat and while waiting it cools down to lukewarm which isn’t much better than cold water. The hire machines have very low suction in comparison to truck mounts. Portables are between 120-180 cfm whereas truckmounts generally have 300 to 400 cfm. This is why carpets cleaned with truckmounts dry in hours as opposed to portable which can take days - as well as leave a smell. Hire machines also use a process where you spray the product and then rinse water in the same hit leaving residue in the carpet. Truckmount steam cleaning requires a pre-spray to be applied and the clean or neutralising water is used to extract dirt and any residue.


    Professional carpet cleaners also have training in the fibres, chemistry and science behind carpet cleaning. It’s not as simple as you might think. For example, wool can only have products used on it with a pH of between 4.5 and 8.5. What pH is your product?


  • Is carpet steam cleaning safe for children and pets?

    Yes. We use WoolSafe-approved, non-toxic solutions that are safe for babies, pets, and allergy sufferers. Our rinse process ensures no sticky residues are left behind — meaning cleaner, fresher carpets that stay clean longer.

  • How often should I have my carpets professionally cleaned?

    For a healthy home, we recommend every 6–12 months depending on household traffic, pets, and lifestyle. Regular professional cleaning helps extend carpet life, reduce allergens, and keep your home looking and smelling fresh.

  • What’s the difference between steam cleaning and dry cleaning?

    “Steam cleaning” (hot water extraction) uses hot water under pressure to flush out dirt, bacteria, and residues from deep within the carpet fibres, then extracts it all out.

    “Dry cleaning” only cleans the surface and leaves chemicals behind. That’s why real steam cleaning gives a deeper, longer-lasting clean.

  • Will steam cleaning damage my carpets?

    Not at all — when done correctly. We use temperature- and pressure-controlled equipment that’s safe for wool, synthetic, and blended carpets. 

  • Can you treat pet urine and odour problems?

    Nobody shampoos carpets anymore. It was an old type of cleaning method that is obsolete. So yes it is recommended to have the carpet in your property steam cleaned.

  • What should I do before your technician arrives?

    Please vacuum high-traffic areas, move small furniture, and pick up items like toys or cords. It helps us get straight to work and ensures a thorough, even clean. 

The benefits of Choosing Focused on Cleaning’s for Your Carpet Steam Cleaning?

When you book with Focused on Cleaning, you’re giving your carpets the professional care they deserve. Here’s what you can expect from your steam clean:

  • High-quality products and detergents are used on every job to deliver exceptional results and help your carpets look and feel their best.
  • Truck-mounted steam cleaning machines give your carpets a deeper, more thorough clean. This removes more dirt, bacteria, and residue than portable systems.
  • Superior hygiene — the water used reaches nearly 100 °C, hot enough to kill most germs and bacteria, leaving your carpets fresh and sanitised.
  • Faster drying times, because the high heat helps moisture evaporate quickly, so you can enjoy your clean carpets sooner.
  • Safe for your carpet fibres — damage only begins at around 160 °C, well above the temperature used in our cleaning process.
  • Neutralised rinse to help prevent rapid re-soiling, keeping your carpets cleaner for longer.
  • Dust mites, fleas, and eggs don’t stand a chance — the temperature during cleaning is high enough to kill most common pests hiding in your carpet.

Have you had pet accidents on the carpets in your home?

Urine stains are very complex in nature as they are released as an acid and as they dry becoming alkaline. During this time alkaline crystals form that emit ammonia and trap ecoli. Hence the odour. Removing these uric crystals is essential in removing the odour. Specilaised products  are needed to do neutralise the crystals and also truckmount suction to extract as many crystals as possible. Odours are not the only issue with urine. Stains are another. Urine can cause permanent damage to wool carpet fibres and destablise dyes in synthetics as well. It is very important to get onto these accidents as soon as possible. Ask for the our Urine decontamination treatment or stain treatment when you book your carpets. Protectors after cleaning can also aid in stains and odours being able to be removed easier and more successfully for homes where these are often issues.
