young boy with a dog and a cat

Chem-Dry® of Virginia Beach is Part of the Nations #1 franchise in pet odor removal

We have eliminated over 100,000 urine stains from carpet! We are the Cheapest, most effective way to eliminate pet odor with a Guarantee. The only other ways to try to get rid of the odor is replace the capet and or pad. Both choices are very expensive and time consuming. We can save you thousands.

P.U.R.T.® is a revolutionary new product specially formulated to eliminate urine odors. This product has shown excellent results on even the most severe urine damage.Pet urine can cause permanent damage to your floors and fabrics. It can also create an unhealthy indoor environment. When urine is first deposited onto a floor or fabric, it has a pH of about 5 or 6, which is on the acid side of the pH Scale. It is easier to remove right then when it is fresh. Once it dries it turns “alkaline” or to a high pH between 10 to12 on the scale and becomes more difficult to remove. The warm acid state of the urine offers a perfect breeding ground for bacteria, which begin to flourish almost immediately. In this original acid state the urine begins to oxidize and react with the carpet to create a color change, which will become permanent if the urine is not removed immediately. Some of this color change can be attributed to the strong ammonia that forms as the urine passes through bacterial and chemical change. If left for days or weeks, depending on the fabric or floor type, it will change the dye structure, therefore causing permanent staining. Even if the soluble deposits are removed, the damage to the dye structure may already be done.

There are two sources of odors associated with urine. The first comes from bacteria that grow abundantly in dark warm places with a never-ending food source. A pet can feed the bacteria daily! This bacteria growth and breakdown of the urine creates amino acids. These complex organic compounds will often work deep into the fibers to a point of becoming part of the fiber. This can present a challenging situation. The waste materials and gases from the decomposing urine create an unpleasant odor. When dried urine is remoistened, it gives off an ammonia gas. If smelled once it is seldom forgotten.

The second source of odor is chemical odor that is present even when the bacteria have been killed. This explains the reason that more than sanitizing is necessary to neutralize odors from urine. Urine also presents additional odor problems when the relative humidity is high. The salts and crystals that are left behind as the urine dries are hydrophilic and draw water to them. Dried urine is often easy to smell in the humid months because the salts attract the moisture, the moisture evaporates putting out a greater proportion of odorous ammonia gas. You must get rid of the urine salts in and under the carpet to get rid of the odor. That’s why cleaning existing urine spots WILL NOT remove any associated odor. In fact, it could INCREASE the odor in the air space for a temporary period of time.

When P.U.R.T® contacts the source of the odor, it immediately begins a chemical reaction that destroys the urine odor.

Why is Pet Urine in Carpet So Hard to Remove?

Great Question! The urine starts in the carpet, seeps into the pad, and into the sub floor. When we clean the carpet it can reduce the urine in the carpet only. If you clean the carpet yourself or have a Steam Cleaner you will most likely spread the urine. This is because the amount of water and the force of water used. It will spread the urine crystals to new places, making it more difficult to pinpoint the effected areas. If you replace the carpet and do not treat the sub floor you can still have an odor.

Pet Odor Removal Chem-Dry of Virginia Beach, Newport News, and Hampton Roads

  • The first step to eliminating odor is a thorough truck mount cleaning of the carpet fibers. This flushes the carpet fibers and reduces the amount of urine crystals, which in return reduces the odor.
  • The second step is applying an antibacterial to the carpet fibers. This is for reducing the amount of bacteria from the urine and or soiling.
  • The third step is to apply the P.U.R.T into the carpet. The Carpet, Pad and Sub Floor are all saturated to ensure complete odor removal. This patented treatment is meant to break up the urine crystals and make them off gas their entire odor. It takes 24-48 hours to dry. You want to open windows slightly to let the odor escape.
  • If you take all three steps with us we will guarantee our work. If you are not completely happy we will return and do all three steps again to ensure total odor removal.
