Our Cleaning Methods
Deep Clean or Maintenance — We Use the Right Method
Before any cleaning begins, we identify your carpet type and make sure the correct chemistry and method are used for the best possible results.
Deep Cleaning Method · Primary
Hot Water Extraction
Widely recommended by leading carpet manufacturers
6–18 hrsapproximate drying time, depending on conditions
Hot water and cleaning solution are injected into the carpet fibres to loosen dirt, allergens and stains. The system then immediately extracts everything using powerful suction. Ideal for heavily soiled carpets and high-traffic areas.
Benefits of Hot Water Extraction
- Deep, thorough cleaning of carpet fibres
- High-heat sanitation for improved hygiene
- No sticky residue left behind
- Restores appearance and texture of carpets
- Eco-friendly and safe for kids and pets
Low-Moisture Maintenance Method
Encapsulation Cleaning
For maintenance and faster turnaround times
30–60 mintypical drying time
Specialized solutions surround dirt particles and crystallize them as they dry. Once dry, the particles are removed by vacuuming. Ideal for routine maintenance or when fast drying is important.
Benefits of Encapsulation Cleaning
- Very fast drying time
- Great for routine maintenance cleaning
- Helps prevent stain wicking
- Ideal when quick turnaround is needed
- Excellent for light to moderate soiling
Encapsulation is not as deep as hot water extraction. We recommend a full deep clean every 3–4 maintenance cleanings for best long-term results.

Our Step-by-Step Cleaning Process
7 Steps We Follow on Every Job
Every job follows a detailed process to ensure consistent, high-quality results.
Pre-vacuuming
We remove loose dirt and debris before cleaning begins.
Pre-inspection
We assess carpet type, condition and problem areas to determine the right cleaning approach and chemistry.
Pre-conditioning / pre-spray
A professional cleaning solution is applied to break down dirt, oils and buildup.
Agitation
We work the solution into the fibres using specialized equipment to lift embedded soil.
Hot water extraction & rinse Deep clean
Deep cleaning is performed using high-temperature water and powerful extraction to remove dirt and residue.
pH balancing rinse
We neutralize carpets to prevent residue buildup and help keep them cleaner for longer.
Post-inspection & grooming
We inspect the finished work and groom the carpet fibres to restore a clean, uniform appearance and improve drying time.

Why This Process Matters
Rushed Cleaning Can Damage Your Carpet
Following a structured process ensures your carpets are cleaned safely and correctly every time. It helps prevent common issues such as:
Overwetting
Can lead to damage or mould risk.
Excess detergent buildup
Leftover soap attracts dirt back into the carpet.
Improper agitation
Can harm carpet fibres.
Incorrect chemical use
Can discolour or damage materials.
Before any cleaning begins, we identify the carpet type and ensure the correct chemistry and method are used to achieve the best possible results.

(204) 997-5929What carpet cleaning method does Next Level Clean use?
Hot water extraction is our primary deep cleaning method and is widely recommended by leading carpet manufacturers. For routine maintenance or when fast drying matters, we also offer low-moisture encapsulation cleaning.
What's the difference between hot water extraction and encapsulation?
Hot water extraction injects hot water and cleaning solution into the fibres and immediately extracts the dirt with powerful suction — best for heavily soiled carpets and high-traffic areas. Encapsulation uses solutions that crystallize around dirt as they dry so it can be vacuumed away — best for maintenance and quick turnaround.
How long does it take carpets to dry?
After hot water extraction, drying takes approximately 6–18 hours depending on conditions. Encapsulation cleaning typically dries in 30–60 minutes.
How often should I get a deep clean?
Encapsulation is effective for maintenance but not as deep as hot water extraction. We recommend a full deep clean every 3–4 maintenance cleanings for best long-term results.
Will cleaning leave soap residue in my carpet?
No. Our hot water extraction leaves no sticky residue, and a pH balancing rinse neutralizes the carpet to prevent residue buildup and help keep it cleaner for longer.
What steps are included in your cleaning process?
Every job follows seven steps: pre-vacuuming, pre-inspection, pre-conditioning/pre-spray, agitation, hot water extraction and rinse, a pH balancing rinse, and post-inspection with fibre grooming.
