How Carpet Steam Cleaning Works at The Grand Stream
1
Walk Through
We’ll walk through with you to check out any trouble spots and let you know of any areas of concern.
2
Pre-Treatment
We’ll spray an eco-friendly solution designed to work on all types of carpet. This ensures your carpets feel nice and plush after we leave and stay clean longer.
3
Agitation
We use a counter-rotating brush machine to gently lift dirt, pet hair, and debris from deep in the carpet fibers - giving your carpet a deeper clean before the steam starts.
4
Steam Cleaning
Finally, we use hot water extraction (steam cleaning) to rinse and remove dirt, allergens, and leftover residue - leaving your carpets fresh, clean, and ready to enjoy.
The Difference Between Steam Cleaning and Shampoo Cleaning
As our name suggests, you’ll get the Grand Steam experience with us. Steam cleaning carpets is a deeper clean and doesn’t use harsh chemicals like shampoo cleaning. Just like when you shampoo your hair, shampoo cleaning carpets uses a foaming detergent that’s scrubbed into the carpet with a brush machine, then extracted. With steam cleaning, we use specialized equipment and hot water under pressure to rinse deep into the carpet fibers, followed by hot water extraction that sucks the dirt and water out with a powerful vacuum.

Grand Stream Carpet Cleaning FAQs
At The Grand Steam, we know you have questions about carpet cleaning, and we're here to help! Whether you're curious about our eco-friendly products, the best methods for pet stain removal, or how often to schedule a deep clean, our friendly team is ready to provide you with expert answers and tailored solutions for your home.
What’s the difference between shampoo cleaning and steam cleaning carpets?
Shampoo cleaning uses a foaming detergent that’s scrubbed into the carpet with a brush machine, then extracted. Steam cleaning, like we do here at The Grand Steam, uses hot water under pressure to rinse deep into carpet fibers, then sucks out dirt and water with a powerful vacuum. Steam cleaning provides a deeper clean and leave less residue.
How long do you have to stay off carpet after steam cleaning?
Depending on the time of year, it usually takes 6–12 hours for carpets to dry completely after steam cleaning. You can walk on them sooner with clean socks, but it’s best to avoid heavy traffic until they’re fully dry. Of course, here in Phoenix with our low humidity and high temperatures in the summer, it’s probably safe to lean closer to the 6 hours.
Where does the dirt go when you steam clean a carpet?
The hot water and suction lift the dirt, allergens, and grime from deep in the carpet and remove it into a waste tank in the cleaning machine. It doesn’t just get pushed around — it’s completely extracted. Follow us on Instagram for videos of daily dumps.
What are the pros and cons of steam cleaning versus shampoo?
Steam Cleaning Pros: Deep cleans, removes allergens, low residue.
Steam Cleaning Cons: Longer dry time.
Shampoo Pros: Can work well for surface stains or high-traffic areas.
Shampoo Cons: Can leave behind residue and cause re-soiling faster.
Should carpet be vacuumed before steam cleaning?
Yes! Vacuuming beforehand removes surface dirt and debris, which helps the steam cleaning process be more effective.
How often do I need to have my carpet steam cleaned?
For most homes, every 12 to 18 months is a good schedule. Homes with pets, kids, or allergies may benefit from cleaning every 6 to 12 months.
What’s the difference between steam cleaning and Chem-Dry?
Steam cleaning uses hot water extraction, while Chem-Dry uses a low-moisture carbonated solution. Chem-Dry dries faster but may not clean as deeply as steam in certain cases.
Will my carpets smell after steam cleaning?
Clean carpets should not smell. If there is any odor, it’s usually temporary and from dampness. If a bad smell remains, it might be due to deep pet stains or mildew — and we have treatments to address that.
Do I need to move furniture for carpet cleaning
We recommend moving small and fragile items. We can clean around larger furniture.
Does steam cleaning remove stains like food spills or tracked-in dirt?
Yes, steam cleaning is highly effective at removing many common stains — including food, drink spills, mud, and dirt tracked in from outside. The hot water and pressure help break up the stain, while the powerful suction lifts it out of the carpet fibers. For tougher or older stains, we usually apply a pre-treatment or spot treatment first to help loosen it before steam cleaning. While most stains come out completely, some deeply set or chemically altered stains (like dye or bleach) may require additional treatment or may be permanent.

"I would highly recommend The Grand Steam for your cleaning needs! They did a wonderful job cleaning the tile throughout our house. We didn’t even have to move the big furniture because they were able to clean around it. They did a great job getting clean all the kiddo spills and even sealed our grout to help with the inevitable future spills! Definitely give them a call today!"
