In-Home Synthetic Carpet Cleaning
The Problem:
Do your synthetic carpets look dull, sticky, or fade despite vacuuming? It's often a buildup of body oils and soap residue trapped in the fibers — invisible but very real.
Synthetic carpets (nylon, polyester, olefin) accumulate oils, grease, and embedded dirt that a vacuum alone cannot remove. Our steam cleaning restores original colors and sanitizes fibers directly at your home, without moving the rug.
Our Approach (On Site)
Inspection & Fiber Identification
Our technician begins by precisely identifying the synthetic fiber type: nylon, polyester, olefin, or polypropylene. Each fiber reacts differently — this step determines the exact protocol to apply and avoids any damage to colors or texture.
Targeted Degreasing Pre-treatment
We apply a professional degreasing pre-spray on critical areas (walkways, entryways, friction zones). This specialized product penetrates the film of body oil and grease accumulated in synthetic fibers to loosen it before extraction — a step most cleaners skip.
Manual Stain Removal
Specific stains (oil, coffee, ink, urine, wine) receive a targeted enzymatic or chemical treatment, chosen from our 40+ professional products. Each stain is worked individually with the right neutralizing agent.
Steam Cleaning (Hot Water Extraction)
The main step: our high-pressure equipment injects a hot solution into the fibers and simultaneously vacuums the dirt-laden water. The high-temperature steam breaks down bacteria and mites. The powerful extraction leaves your carpet clean and only slightly damp.
Neutralizing Rinse & Fiber Grooming
We finish with a pH-balanced neutralizing rinse that removes any cleaning product residue. Soap residues are the #1 cause of carpets re-soiling quickly. We then manually groom the fibers with a carpet rake for a flawless finish.
Adapted Equipment (Truck-Mount or Portable)
We primarily use our truck-mount units for maximum power. However, for high-rise condos or restricted access, we are equipped with high-performance professional portable machines. These units have nothing in common with rental machines: they guarantee an expert result, no matter your floor.
Expertise for modern synthetic fibers — Nylon, Polyester, Olefin
Synthetic carpets are the most common in homes across Montreal, Laval, and the South Shore. Nylon, polyester, olefin (polypropylene), and acrylic make up the vast majority of residential carpets sold today. These fibers are durable and stain-resistant on the surface, but they have one major weakness: they tend to grab and hold onto body oils and greases at the fiber level — creating an invisible film that dulls colors and makes the carpet sticky.
A simple vacuum cleaner, no matter how powerful, cannot remove this greasy film. This is exactly why our hot water extraction steam cleaning is the method recommended by all synthetic carpet manufacturers. The heat of the steam liquifies the graesses, our pre-treatment solution loosens them, and our high-power extraction vacuums them out of the fibers. The result: restored colors, regained soft texture, and a sanitized environment.
With over 30 years of experience in in-home carpet cleaning, our technicians have developed specialized expertise to treat each type of synthetic fiber with the exact protocol that corresponds to it — neither too aggressive nor ineffective. We travel to Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, Brossard, Saint-Lambert, and throughout the South Shore with our high-performance mobile units.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will you take my synthetic rug to clean it in a warehouse?
No, absolutely not. The entire cleaning process is done on-site, in front of you, in your home. This choice is not just a convenience: it is also more effective. We use your water and our high-performance mobile equipment. You see the result immediately.
Is steam cleaning safe for synthetic carpets (nylon, polyester)?
Yes, provided the right protocol is used — which our certified technicians do. Synthetic fibers tolerate the heat and controlled moisture of our extraction method very well.
Why do my synthetic carpets get dirty faster after I clean them myself?
This is the classic problem with rental machines and commercial products: they leave detergent residues in the fibers. These residues act like a dirt magnet. Our professional neutralizing rinse eliminates these residues at the source.
How long does it take for a synthetic carpet to dry after steam cleaning?
Between 2 and 5 hours on average, depending on carpet thickness, fiber type, and room ventilation. Synthetic fibers (nylon, polyester) have the advantage of being naturally hydrophobic — they absorb less water than wool, which speeds up drying. Our powerful extraction removes up to 95% of moisture at the end of the intervention. Opening windows or turning on a fan further reduces this delay.
How often should a synthetic carpet be professionally cleaned?
For an average household without pets, once a year is ideal. With young children, pets, or a very busy entrance, every 6 to 9 months is recommended. Our technicians observe that clients who wait more than 18 months have carpets that are significantly harder to treat — the accumulated grease polymerizes and adheres to the fibers permanently.
Can you remove cooking oil, kitchen grease, or sebum stains on a synthetic carpet?
That is precisely the specialty of our treatment for synthetic fibers. Olefin and polypropylene are particularly sensitive to lipid buildup (cooking oils, body sebum). Our professional degreasing pre-treatment is designed to loosen this film before extraction. In the vast majority of cases, we completely eliminate these stains in one intervention. For very old stains (over 2 years), the improvement is significant even if a perfect result is not always guaranteed.
