Our Rug Cleaning Process
Pre-Inspection
We will evaluate your floors to determine what approach is going to be most effective for their current condition. Different situations require different approaches and we treat each of our client's homes with individual and specific focus.
Area Preparation
We will prepare the areas surrounding the wood, making sure not to disturb any other connecting floor types. At this point all furniture that will be cleaned under is moved.
Dry Soil Removal
Our technicians sweep and vacuum the entire area, maximizing the results we obtain.
Cleaning
The cleaning process includes multiple applications of specialized cleaning solutions with state of the art equipment, PRODUCING NO DUST WHATSOEVER! Surface accumulations of common household pollutants such as food residues or pet oils are removed without abrading your floor to expose any bare wood.
Re-coating (optional but recommended)
You may opt to have your floors re-coated with a protective finish after the cleaning process. Protected wood floors last longer, clean up easier and stay cleaner longer.
Post Inspection
Our technician will walk through the areas with you and go over the results before leaving.
How To Care For Your Wood Floors
1. Vacuum or Sweep
Always vacuum or sweep to remove dirt and any grit prior to cleaning your wood floors.
2. Spray
Lightly mist a 6' x 6' area of your wood floor with a hardwood floor cleaner , or directly mist the mop's microfiber cloth cover.
3. Wipe
Using a back and forth motion, clean the floor surfaces with your mop or clean microfiber cloth until completely dry. Finish an area before moving on to the next. When your microfiber cloth cover becomes soiled, replace it with a clean one. Continued use of excessively soiled covers may cause streaking.
When a spill occurs, soak up the liquid promptly, mist the affected area with hardwood floor cleaner and wipe with a mop or a clean soft cloth.
To help maintain your floor, do the following:
-
Blot up spills immediately.
-
Dust mop floors using an untreated mop and proper wood floor cleaner.
-
Use door mats and walk-off mats whenever possible to keep dirt and grit off the floor.
Avoid the following with wood floors:
-
DO NOT use powder cleaners or soft cream cleaners (Soft Scrub)
-
DO NOT use mold removers (Tile X, X14, etc.) or disinfectants (Lysol).
-
DO NOT use furniture polish (Pledge, Jubilee, Endust).
-
DO NOT use wax or oil cleaners (Orange Glow, Murphy’s Oil)!
-
DO NOT USE VINEGAR!
General cleaning of wood floor is recommended once every 1-2 weeks. Floors subject to heavy traffic should be cleaned on a more frequent basis.
