The Truth About Pet Urine: Why DIY Pet Urine Odor Removal Doesn’t Work

Dealing with pet urine stains in your carpet or upholstery? Removing these stains and odors can be a major challenge to undertake on a DIY basis. In fact, there are many reasons why DIY pet urine odor removal often does more harm than good. The simple truth is that if you want to overcome these tough stains and restore a more comfortable living space, professional pet urine odor removal is the way to go. 

The Downside of DIY Pet Urine Odor Removal

Wondering why pet urine odor removal is so tough to accomplish on a DIY basis? Here’s what you need to know:

• DIY doesn’t go deep enough - Unfortunately, pet urine often gets absorbed deep within your carpet fibers, making it extremely unlikely that basic DIY cleaning tactics will make any progress. Those odorous compounds are simply too deep to remove without the right professional equipment. 
• Household cleaners are not effective - In addition to not being able to break down uric acid, many household cleaners lack the specific components you need to neutralize those intense odors. 
• Heat can make it worse - Using things like steam cleaners on pet urine stains can actually cause the urine to further bond with your carpet fibers. 

Trusted Pet Urine Odor Removal from the Experts at Chem-Dry

While DIY attempts to remove pet urine stains and odors often fall short, the experts at Chem-Dry are here to provide the advanced solutions you need. With our Pet Urine Removal Treatment (P.U.R.T.®), we combine our exceptional carpet cleaning solutions along with our unique odor-eliminating treatment. With our special pet stain carpet cleaning solutions, we can neutralize urine smells at the source, destroying the chemical compounds that cause these unpleasant smells, rather than simply masking their odor. This process has been proven to avoid the pitfalls of conventional steam cleaning and remove these odors without damaging your carpets. 

Our Three-Step Process for Removing Pet Urine Odor

Wondering how our P.U.R.T. process delivers such great results against pet urine odor? Here’s how our meticulous three-step process works:

1. Identify Pet Urine Stains

The first step is to identify all pet urine stains, especially those that are not immediately obvious. The truth is, many urine deposits in your carpeting are very tough to spot with regular lighting, which is another reason why DIY cleaning attempts often fall short. We start our process by using a special ultraviolet light to identify the full scope of your pet urine issues.

2. Remove Urine Odors

The next step is to apply our P.U.R.T. product in order to eliminate odors. This unique compound is specifically designed to destroy odor-causing molecules. It will penetrate deep within your carpeting, all the way to the subfloor, eliminating these nasty odors at their source. 

This product will take 24 hours to dry and eliminate these stubborn odors within your carpeting. Once this process is complete, the odors will be gone for good!

3. Clean Stained Surfaces

The last step in our process is providing a deep clean to your carpeting in order to remove stains and extract loose urine crystals from your carpet fibers. To do this, we rely on our unique Hot Carbonating Extraction (HCE) process. This innovative system allows us to penetrate deep within your carpeting to remove deeply-embedded stains and odors. This unique method uses approximately 80% less water than traditional steam cleaning, meaning your carpets will dry quicker.
