Carpet Cleaning Procedure If
desired, large
objects such
as beds,
dressers,
TV
consoles, etc.
need to
be moved
off of
carpet by
owner or
agent of
owner prior
to scheduled
appointment. Neil
will move
small and
medium items
and will
assist with
larger items
when needed.
Some items
such as
sofas can
be slid
and replaced
using Teflon
sliders during
cleaning process.
When acceptable
to owner
some items
can be
“cut” around
during cleaning
process. Carpets are first dry vacuumed when necessary. Section by section carpets are next pre-sprayed in their entirety (not just spots) with the appropriate pre-spray given the carpet fiber material and condition. Carpets are then agitated with a carpet rake and hot water extracted (steam cleaned) with water approaching 220 degrees at 500 psi. This rinsing water contains an extraction detergent or rinsing agent depending on carpet material and soiling conditions. Any remaining spots can at this point be treated further by solvents or other agents and once again rinsed and extracted. Hot water extraction is followed by drying strokes to minimize residual moisture. Drying times vary from 5 to 12 hours depending on carpet type, humidity and temperature. In all cases, drying times can be accelerated by air flow such as fans, air conditioning or natural breezes from outside. |
|
Upholstery Cleaning Procedure Upholstered items such as sofas, arm chairs, seat cushions etc are first dry brushed and vacuumed as needed to remove as much debris as possible. All upholstered surfaces are then sprayed with an appropriate prespray given the material type and soiling conditions. All surfaces are gently agitated with a hand brush and hot water extracted with an upholstery tool and water approaching 220 degrees. The rinsing water in this steam cleaning process can contain an extraction detergent for moderate to highly soiled synthetic materials or an acidic rinsing agent for natural materials such as cotton blends. Drying times are usually three to five hours and are accelerated once again by air flow and temperature. |
|
Ceramic Tile Cleaning Procedure Tile is first swept to remove debris. A high alkali cleaning solution designed for ceramic tile is sprayed onto tile. Agitation is applied with a hand brush or weighted floor machine depending on conditions. Grout lines are scrubbed with a narrow grout brush. After sufficient dwell time (15 to 45 minutes) the tile is hot water extracted with a hard surface wand called a spinner at temperatures approaching or exceeding 220 degrees and water pressures from 700 PSI to 1000 PSI. Drying times are one hour or less. |
