What a legend replying to everyone and continuing to give advice, Salt of the earth, mate. Cheers for the quick and in-depth video, really nice and concise. All the best
If you’re in the UK then something like this: www.worldofclean.co.uk/18-pile-brush/ But to be honest any standard stiff brush will work for the agitation of the carpets :)
@raffaellodelafressange4398 any pump up sprayer will work, although ones made specifically for use with carpet cleaning chemicals will likely last longer as the seals will be made for this purpose, like the one I’m using in the video has ‘Viton’ seals.
No problem thanks for watching! Yes a clear water rinse if using a PH neutral chemical like in the video, if using a stronger alkaline chemical then it’s best practice to use an acidic rinse to neutralise it and bring it all back to PH neutral :)
Yes I have the same question. I think it is a wet and dry vacuum cleaner like they use for DIY or car workshops. An extra expense but al least it can be used for other jobs as well.
Hi Simon, essentially the professional extraction machines are just large wet/dry vacuums yes but I wouldn’t try and use a generic wet/dry vac to clean your carpet, it won’t have the vacuum power necessary to remove the excess water from the carpet and could leave it too damp. The generic wet/dry vacs are mainly for picking up water from hard floors
@@KingHall it was all going so well until this! That is £600-£700 at screwfix, so not an option for DIY carpet cleaning. I liked your video: the other steps are all affordable and achievable, but this water extraction step is not practical if that is the machine you are suggesting. Is there anything else you can suggest? Thanks
Yes, you still need some form of agitation on wool but if you are using a CRB machine you would normally use softer brushes. Most of the extraction machines on the market will do a great job as long as the prep work beforehand (vacuuming, agitation etc.) is done properly. We use the Jaguar and Jaguar Cub portable range from World of clean in Cornwall, UK as we find they are lighter than the competitors and are just as powerful. Thanks for watching!
Hi Claudia! You don’t even need to use hot water if you’re using a detergent free chemical, we rinse with cold/warm water. And yes that extraction machine rinses and extracts at the same time.
Thank you for the quick response ⚡️ I’m making my list of essential things to start my own business. I'm so excited. I hope to start operating in the next two months. If you have any links to any I could really appreciate any extra information for beginners, thanks lots 😃
I can't reccommend a brush available in the US unfortunately, If you look at this link to what i use and then look for something similar on a US website maybe? To be honest most stiff brushes you can by in a home store would work just fine. www.worldofclean.co.uk/18-pile-brush/
No sorry! I'm not familiar with any US Brands, that chemical is a PH neutral colloidal cleaning solution, I assume if you went onto a US based chemical supplier and had a look through you might find something similar just under a different brand name :)
Hi, thank you for sharing, much appreciated, wishing you much blessings with a heart like yours I am sure it will not be a problem, best of luck with your work 💯😊
Keep vacuuming. Go in different directions. Why leave dry stuff that will just turn into sludge when you add water? Shortcuts in cleaning always show up as bigger problems later on.
Yes ideally it'd all be gone after the vacuuming process but if anything is brought up during agitation i normally just pick it up and stick it in the waste water bucket before extracting
extraction ? what does the machine do ? spray water over it and then suck it Kan that also be done with a spray an a hoover Vacuuming -pre spray - agitation - spray -hoover ???
It sprays water and extracts at the same time through the wand, so it rinses away the dirt and chemical at the same time. If you mean using a 'wet vacuum' then they wouldn't be powerful enough to remove enough water, you'd end up over wetting the carpet and potentially going through to the underlay and then causing problems like odours & bacterial growth.
Well I got some M power and worked in well with a brush, left for 20 minutes and it barely did anything, I used a Henry Wash machine as proper carpet cleaning machines are past my budget, disappointed really as was expecting better
Hi there, it depends on what the soiling type in the carpet was, M Power is a great all rounder but a different chemical may have been better for your specific needs.
My cleaning business is 3 months old and I always said I would only do laundry but with your help I'm considering carpet cleaning thank you 💚
Go for it Mutesi, there’s plenty of work out there!
How is your business going? I've always considered doing this but it's a lot of hard work.
What a legend replying to everyone and continuing to give advice, Salt of the earth, mate. Cheers for the quick and in-depth video, really nice and concise. All the best
Thanks for the kind words mate appreciate it!
You are so kind and generous and good-hearted; thank you for sharing your very valuable information and research!
Thanks for sharing ❤
Thanks for watching!
Nobody's talking about the intro??? i love it
Haha I’m glad someone liked it 😂
Any recommendation on what brush to buy for manual agitation ? Please
If you’re in the UK then something like this: www.worldofclean.co.uk/18-pile-brush/
But to be honest any standard stiff brush will work for the agitation of the carpets :)
Can i use any pressure sprayer for pre spray ? 🤔🤔🤔
@raffaellodelafressange4398 any pump up sprayer will work, although ones made specifically for use with carpet cleaning chemicals will likely last longer as the seals will be made for this purpose, like the one I’m using in the video has ‘Viton’ seals.
Love the way you described properly.. I subscribed. 😇
Thanks!
Thank you for the video, you convinced me to hire a crew 😅
Haha totally understand that! At least you’ll know it’ll be done properly!
Good advice thanks
Thanks for this! Can I use a normal push broom for agitation?
You sure can! Although it'd be best to use a carpet brush specifcally designed for that purpose, they're not very expensive either.
Very informative video. thanks👍
Thanks Uzair!
Great video many thanks 😊😊😊 do you use clear water for extration ?
No problem thanks for watching! Yes a clear water rinse if using a PH neutral chemical like in the video, if using a stronger alkaline chemical then it’s best practice to use an acidic rinse to neutralise it and bring it all back to PH neutral :)
Wow marvellous, thank you so much.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!
Thank youuu!
Clear and
Beautiful done!
Thank you for watching Faith! :)
Hey, please what is the name of the industrial extraction hoover you where using asking for I want to use it for my business thank you .
Hi Peter, it’s the Jaguar Cub
Thanks ☺️
Hi, first time cleaning my carpet here. Is the extractor just a vacuum with a different head (to get to the water)?
Yes I have the same question. I think it is a wet and dry vacuum cleaner like they use for DIY or car workshops. An extra expense but al least it can be used for other jobs as well.
Hi Simon, essentially the professional extraction machines are just large wet/dry vacuums yes but I wouldn’t try and use a generic wet/dry vac to clean your carpet, it won’t have the vacuum power necessary to remove the excess water from the carpet and could leave it too damp.

@@KingHall do you have any suggestions for a machine for DIY use?
Something like a Karcher Puzzi is a DIY machine :)
@@KingHall it was all going so well until this! That is £600-£700 at screwfix, so not an option for DIY carpet cleaning. I liked your video: the other steps are all affordable and achievable, but this water extraction step is not practical if that is the machine you are suggesting. Is there anything else you can suggest? Thanks
Thanks for this video, may I also ask what sprayer is it called?
That’s a Venus hand held pump sprayer 😊
Hi, what about wool carpets ? Do you still brush? And what is a good carpet cleaner/extractor to use ? Thank you.
Yes, you still need some form of agitation on wool but if you are using a CRB machine you would normally use softer brushes. Most of the extraction machines on the market will do a great job as long as the prep work beforehand (vacuuming, agitation etc.) is done properly. We use the Jaguar and Jaguar Cub portable range from World of clean in Cornwall, UK as we find they are lighter than the competitors and are just as powerful.
Thanks for watching!
Hi! So in step 4 we need to rinse with hot water and then vacuum? With the same machine? Thank you
Hi Claudia! You don’t even need to use hot water if you’re using a detergent free chemical, we rinse with cold/warm water. And yes that extraction machine rinses and extracts at the same time.

Thank you.
You're welcome!
I live in the US, is there a particular scrub brush that you recommend for the agitation phase?
I can't reccommend a brush available in the US unfortunately, If you look at this link to what i use and then look for something similar on a US website maybe? To be honest most stiff brushes you can by in a home store would work just fine.

Nice video. Just subscribed 😊
Thanks Mark! More videos coming soon 😊
@@KingHall wonderful
Great video
Thank you!
Thanks..
You're welcome!
Do you have any recommendations for a pre-spray sold in the US? We don’t have that brand over here.😊
No sorry! I'm not familiar with any US Brands, that chemical is a PH neutral colloidal cleaning solution, I assume if you went onto a US based chemical supplier and had a look through you might find something similar just under a different brand name :)

After agitation there is a lot of dirt/hair that comes up. Do you vacuum again or does the extraction machine pick the dirt/hair up for you?
Keep vacuuming. Go in different directions. Why leave dry stuff that will just turn into sludge when you add water? Shortcuts in cleaning always show up as bigger problems later on.
Yes ideally it'd all be gone after the vacuuming process but if anything is brought up during agitation i normally just pick it up and stick it in the waste water bucket before extracting
How long does it take to clean one carpet like the size in the video. wall-to-wall carpets?
We allow 1 hour to clean an average sized room using our machinery with doing all the parts of the process. DIY machines would obviously take longer.
Great 👍
Greetings from the united states.Wish I knew not to add cleaning solution to the rinse tank. Thanks for the tips.
Thanks for watching! And no problem at all, it’s a common issue we see with people attempting to clean it themselves before calling us in.
Whats the name of the extraction tool you used?
The Jaguar Cub which can be found here:
www.worldofclean.co.uk/machines/carpet-cleaning-machines/
Hiiii what’s the name of the piece of equipment in step 4?
So that’s a “hot water extraction machine” the specific machine we use is the Jaguar range from World Of Clean in Cornwall, UK.
Don’t show them you’d be out of a job lol I love watching you clean😍😍😍😍😍😍
He doesn't have to worry about that. People don't have the time or inclination.
Could send us the product did you spray on the carpet ?
Hi Leandro, this is where we get our chemicals from:
www.worldofclean.co.uk/chemicals/carpet-cleaning-chemicals/
extraction ?
what does the machine do ?
spray water over it and then suck it
Kan that also be done with a spray an a hoover
Vacuuming -pre spray - agitation - spray -hoover ???
It sprays water and extracts at the same time through the wand, so it rinses away the dirt and chemical at the same time. If you mean using a 'wet vacuum' then they wouldn't be powerful enough to remove enough water, you'd end up over wetting the carpet and potentially going through to the underlay and then causing problems like odours & bacterial growth.
