QC Newsletter June 2013 - Upholstery and Fabric Cleaning

Upholstery and Fabric Cleaning

To keep your furniture clean, it's necessary to conduct routine maintenance including vacuuming and immediate attention to spills, coupled with periodic cleaning by a certified technician every one to two years. Furniture and fabric manufacturers recommend that consumers not wait until severe soiling occurs before cleaning because the greater the soiling, the less the likelihood of restoring the fabric's original color, appearance and texture.

Regular cleaning of fabric and leather furnishings by a trained, certified technician can help restore your furniture's appearance, extend its life and keep it looking like new. Moreover, certified technicians can offer simple suggestions to maintain a clean and healthful home or business environment overall.

Tips For Prolonging The Beauty Of Your Upholstery

You just bought furniture for the living room, so how do you maintain  its fresh new appearance?

To keep your furniture clean, it’s necessary to conduct routine maintenance, including periodic cleaning by a cleantrust certified technician every one to two years. Furniture and fabric manufacturers recommend that consumers not wait until severe soiling occurs before cleaning because the greater the soiling, the less the likelihood of restoring the fabric's original color, appearance and texture, and the greater adverse effect on indoor environmental quality.

Regular cleaning by a trained, certified professional can help restore your upholstery's appearance, extend its life, and keeping it looking "like new." In addition, certified professionals can offer simple suggestions to maintain a clean and healthful environment.

 These tips often include:

Control soil by using arm caps and rotating seat cushions frequently to prolong life and appearance of areas prone to wear and tear. Remove dry soil by vacuuming and, depending on the fabric, brushing to remove dust and soil particles.  Increased cleaning may be required when fabric is subjected to heavy use, or when it is located in homes occupied with persons with allergies or respiratory sensitivity.

QC Newsletter May 2013 - Beware of Bait and Switch Carpet Cleaners

Beware of Bait and Switch Carpet Cleaners

You know the type - they “bait” you with a low price, then “switch” you to their “dual scrub” or “deep cleaning” system.  They proceed to soak your carpet and leave a soapy residue behind.
 
>>>>> Good luck getting them back again! <<<<<

Beware of low priced carpet cleaning.  If their price is truly low, you should be concerned about their quality.  How can you pay technicians a decent wage and have the best products and equipment at the lowest price?  You can’t.

Some companies advertise a low price, then charge you more when they get there.  Be clear about what is included and what is not.  Sometimes the fine print on a coupon will say something like ‘we recommend our dual scrub method for all heavily soiled carpet’.  How many carpets are heavily soiled?  All of them!  Even if you held them to the unbelievably low price, you would get a very poor cleaning.

Here are some questions to ask every carpet cleaner...

What method do you use?
Do you pre-spot urine and other spots?
Do you pre-spray the carpet?
Do you pre-groom the carpet?
Do you neutralize the carpet?
Do you post-groom the carpet?
Is all spot cleaning included in the price?
Do you give a free bottle of spot remover?
Do you have recent references?
How long have you been in business?
Are you certified by the IICRC?
Do you have liability insurance?

A low priced carpet cleaning company simply cannot provide the most advanced, guaranteed cleaning technology at a low, low price.  Something has to be cut from their service.

Our Company obviously offers all these benefits and more! Call today to schedule you Free Quote.
