Choosing Cleaners

Our five carpet cleaners are design to remove specific types of carpet stains. Based on these descriptions, choose the best carpet stain remover for your job and lifestyle.

Water and Food Based Stains

The majority of carpet stains fall under this category and include water-based spots or protein stains from food. All of the following items can be removed from carpet with the Home Pride Carpet Solutions General Spot Remover: beer and alcohol stains, soft drink stains, jam and jelly stains, syrup stains, dirt and grass stains, latex paint stains, salad dressing stains, milk and ice cream stains and blood stains.

Grease, Oil and Tar Stains

Carpet stains from petroleum products defeat most common spot removers since they are not designed to attack the oils that create the mess. Yet many of us spend time walking on parking lots or crossing roadways, so terrible stains can make their way into our homes on the soles of our shoes. Home Pride Carpet Solutions’ Gum, Tar and Grease Remover contains safe-to-use solvents that break down greasy and sticky gunk so that it can be removed from your carpet fibers. For example, the Gum, Tar and Grease Remover will successfully remove the following from your carpet: candle wax stains, butter and margarine stains, cosmetic stains, all kinds of oil stains, ink stains, crayon stains, glue and adhesive stains, tar stains and chewing gum.

Wine, Juice and Dye Stains

Any lover of red wine knows that it leaves tough carpet stains! Parents with small children will tell you that carpet spots from juice and bright colored beverages are just as bad! Dyes, both natural and artificial, are present in foods, drinks and medicines. When they hit your carpet, the stain needs to be cleaned as soon as possible, lest the dyes do their normal work on your carpet fibers. The Home Pride Carpet Solutions Juice and Dye Stain Remover handles any type of dye that children or guests can throw at your carpet.

Coffee and Tea Stains

Tea and coffee get their characteristic brownish color from compounds called tannins. When spilled on your carpet, they can only be removed by tannin-specific spot removers. Home Pride Carpet Solutions Coffee and Tea Stain Remover does the job with the same carpet cleaning materials used by professionals. Note that the milk products and sugar often added to hot beverages make their own stains too. For these components of a coffee and tea stain in your carpet, use our General Spot Remover first, and then follow up with the Coffee and Tea Stain Remover.

Pet Urine Stains and Odor

100 million Americans pet cats, dogs or both! That explains why our Pet Stain and Odor Remover is the best selling product at Home Pride Carpet Solutions. While ordinary carpet stain removers may deal with the spot, they can only hide the odor. Enzymes are needed to remove the odor of urine, vomit and other biological fluids.  Pet Stain and Odor Remover deals with carpet stains and carpet odors from urine, vomit and sweat — no matter which species created it! It also works on bedding and mattresses.
