Pet Stain/Odor Removal
Many homeowners have pets and love the companionship they offer, however, pets contaminate our healthy living environment. One of the biggest complaints from dog and cat owners is uri
ne stains and odors they deposit on carpet and upholstery. Pet urine is acidic when it is first deposited on carpet or upholstery. As it ages the urine changes to alkaline and salt deposits remain in the effected fibers. These salts are not water-soluble and will continue to release an odor unless the area is treated.
These issues can be mitigated with the appropriate equipment and cleaning solutions. In order to effectively eliminate pet stains and odors, Code Blue Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning utilize special tools and enzyme-producing bacteria to eliminate those frustrating problem areas. Pet stains and odor control is a time consuming process and may take several trips to achieve the appropriate outcome. Cost depends on the severity of the problem and the desired results of the homeowner.
Pet Urine Can Affect Your Carpeting In The Following Ways;
• Urine deposited on carpet can penetrate the carpet’s fibers and contaminate the carpet’s backing, the carpet pad, and the sub-floor. Frequently, pets will continue to urinate in the same location, causing significant contamination and damage.
• Urine odors can penetrate the wood or concrete sub-floor, carpet tack strips, and the home’s framing.
• As urine dries, the liquid evaporates but the urine crystals become more concentrated and pungent. Simple cleaning will not remove this odor. In fact, these urine crystals are frequently re-activated by moisture. Have you noticed that urine odors become more noticeable as humidity increases? Similarly, the moisture of any cleaning process may cause the urine odor to become more profound if the contaminated areas are not properly treated.
• Urine may cause permanent color damage by modifying the dye in the carpet’s fiber.
