Arcadia Lakes is one of those places people drive past without realizing it's a town of its own. It sits just northeast of Forest Acres along North Trenholm Road, and with somewhere around 865 residents it's about as small as an incorporated town gets in Richland County. The lakes the town is named for are the whole point. Homes here are built around the water, lots are generous, and the tree cover is heavy.
We're already working all over Forest Acres most days, so Arcadia Lakes is a quick hop up Trenholm for us. That matters when you want a crew that can get out to you without a week of lead time.
What the lakes do to carpet
Living next to water is great until you think about what it means for the inside of your house. The air around the lakes stays damp, and that humidity finds its way into carpet padding and sits there. In summer it's worse, with the Midlands heat keeping moisture in the air for months at a stretch. A damp pad is where musty smells start, usually in the lower-level rooms or anywhere the carpet doesn't get much airflow.
Then there's everything that comes in off the yard. Red Carolina clay, lake mud, pollen off all those trees, and whatever the dog rolls in down by the water. It gets tracked across the carpet and works into the fibers. Vacuuming pulls the loose stuff off the top, but the clay and fine grit settle deeper and stay put.
Steam cleaning isn't the answer in a climate like this. It soaks the carpet and leaves it wet most of the day, which only adds to the moisture problem you already have. Our carbonated process uses about a fifth of the water. It lifts the embedded dirt to the surface, we extract it, and the carpet is dry enough to walk on in roughly an hour.
