[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 526086, member: 84"] Honestly, professionals are ok..................but I've done a far better job myself. I've owned steam cleaners since the beginning of my marriage. mother in law used to pay a LOT to get her carpets done twice a year. White shag with a dog, need I say more? (not that it looked bad really) Once she asked me if I minded coming over to do it...........and my steam cleaner......well, let's just say it looked much cleaner than when she paid to have it done. Steam cleaner dudes are usually in a rush to get to the next job, I'm not. lol My dream now is to rip up the carpet in the dinging room (definately!!). It was cheap carpet to begin with......but after a dog giving birth on it......dogs, grand kid, various animals, shampoos, husband not caring for it well while I was at school.......it's just had it. I have places with bare patches. No clue why. The living room carpet isn't in much better shape, but it *might* come clean with a good shampooing. I'm waiting for warmer weather to find out. But I'd like to rip it out too and just have hard wood in both rooms. I'm not sure if the guy who redid the house left the hardwood floors in place or not. I know in one spot where I checked it's not there. But I don't want carpet downstairs anymore. With pets it's just a royal PITA. And I'm partial to hardwood floors anyway. [/QUOTE]
