The types of damage from pet stains can be diverse and are dependent upon the makeup of the urine.

How Dog Urine & Cat Urine Affect Your Carpet & Upholstery

Pet urine, left unattended, can damage carpet in several ways. Moisture can weaken the layers of the carpet, allowing separation or delamination of the backing material. Seam areas can be particularly damaged and can separate.

Pet Urine can affect the dyes used in carpet, although not all occurrences will result in a permanent stain. Success is dependent upon the content of the Dog Urine or Cat Urine, the dyes and finish used, and the time elapsed after the deposit. Some urine spots may be immediately noticeable, while others may take weeks or months for a reaction. The dyes may change color immediately after contact with Pet Urine.

When Pet Stains develop slowly and are noticed after much time has elapsed, the dyes and carpet fibers may be permanently damaged. In beige carpet, blue dyes are attacked by pet urine, leaving behind the red and yellow dyes with a resulting stain appearing red, yellow, or orange.

Pet Odor Removal & Control

Another problem, especially with cats, is odor. Unless the cat urine can be completely removed, complete odor removal is unlikely. A number of products are available to combat odor, but may simply mask the odor, and, in times of high humidity, the odor may reappear. TLC Carpet Care, Austin, Round Rock, Pflugerville, Georgetown, Cedar Park and the Greater Austin Area has a wide array of tools and chemicals that can help pet odor especially cat urine. For example, enzymes are a natural way to more effectively deal with many of pet related problems. It is important to attack the problem immediately. If you wait too long, some odors cannot be removed, the damaged area of the carpet can be replaced with a piece from reserved scrap. If carpet replacement is necessary, then replacement of cushion and even subflooring may also be necessary.
