What is the average drying time after a professional cleaning?

The average drying time after a professional Steam Carpet & Upholstery Cleaning depends on several factors. Generally, carpets and upholstery will be damp for about 6-12 hours after the cleaning process. However, this timeframe may vary depending on the humidity levels, ventilation in the area, thickness of carpets or upholstery, and the cleaning technique employed. To expedite drying, it is advisable to open windows or turn on fans for better air circulation. It is essential to avoid walking on the damp surfaces until fully dry to prevent any re-soiling or damage. Additionally, using a dehumidifier can help reduce humidity levels and accelerate the drying process. Nonetheless, individual circumstances may influence the actual drying time, and customers can consult our professionals for specific guidance.
