Warning: Dirty Carpets and Floors are Making You Sick!

Well, maybe not physically sick (although the bacteria that lives in your carpets, upholstery, area rugs and on your hardwood and tile floors aren't doing your health any favors!) But they may be making you sick of looking at them. 

Yes, I know the thought of cleaning them yourself has crossed your mind many times. Then you think about the tiresome labor and HUGE time commitment involved in it. That's when you decide to put it off just a bit longer. "Eh, they're not THAT bad," you think to yourself.

BUT putting the cleaning off causes even MORE problems. Bacteria Bandits are settling in and are inviting friends like The Virus Family to join them. Further, the dirt and the microscopic gunk that is tracked in from outside are getting more embedded by the day. Dusty the Dust Mite and Gerald the Germ bring their entire family tree to hang out and take up residence in such a conducive place for their survival. 

The thought of hiring a professional tends to be only a fleeting thought when you see carpet cleaning van cross in front of you at an intersection. But you don't think too deeply about it because you assume the cost is really up there. And it is :-(

On average the cost of using a national franchise to clean 5 areas of carpets in the Huntsville/Madison is between $179.00 and $229.00. That is kinda high in my opinion. These companies do good work but you end up paying for far more than cleaning.

So, here's something you NEED to know. 

I have been in the cleaning industry since the 1980s (yes, I am 59 years old at the time of this writing). But I LOVE cleaning carpets and floors and offering my services for 15% to 20% lower than the national franchises. AND I do a much better job. I am so sure of this that if you don't think it is the most thorough cleaning possible, it will be FREE. Guaranteed!

Be a Dust Handler

Dust. It’s everywhere. Want proof? Reach over to a cabinet top, a window sill… just about any surface. Rub your finger on them and see what you get.

While dust occurs naturally in homes and buildings, there are some practical steps you can take to minimize how much dust affects the cleanliness of your home but also how much it negatively affects health of your loved ones.

Exhaust fans

Talk about something you might never inspect, unless you think about it. Give it some thought now. In your bathrooms, look up at your exhaust fans — assuming you have them. Look closely. They are probably covered with dust and hair and other debris, and perhaps the circulation openings are completely clogged up. Use a vacuum to remove as much as you can, and when there is air flow into the fan, use some compressed air to finish the job. Loosening up the dust means the fan will move it on out.

Area rugs

While you vacuum your floors and area rugs on a scheduled basis, you never get as much dust out of area rugs than taking them outside and giving them a good “beating.” Of course, the area rug has to be of a size and weight you can handle. But if you get them outside, drape over a fence or patio chair, and go at them with a broom or tennis racket, you will get much more dust out of them than if you vacuumed alone.

High areas

Like your exhaust fans, other areas you might not inspect can be dust collectors. Think about your ceiling fans, trim around doors and windows, pictures and ornaments, any area above typical eyesight. Your favorite department store or online store will have a variety of dusting devices you can use. They also have products meant to, while you clean, attract dust, dander, and debris so you aren’t just moving it around. The main thing is to buy them and use them on a regular basis.

Maintenance

As with any task, performing what needs done on a schedule is important. Keeping a house clean and tidy is a task that never ends. From dusting to carpet cleaning, to hard floor care, and more, the best way to keep it all in perfect shape is to use a quality and professional cleaning service. After all, it pays to call a pro!

3 Best Ways to Kick Off Spring

As winter rolls into spring, you may want to concentrate on fixing, organizing, and cleaning what’s outside — after all, most say that working in the sun is better than working under a light bulb — but there are some tasks inside that just shouldn’t be ignored.

Here are a few that will help your indoor air quality the minute you handle them.

Dusty decisions

A cold, hard winter means the house has been closed up and not aired out. The natural tendency is to think there is no dust coming in. That’s not true. Spring is a good time to thoroughly dust your entire home, picking up small items off table and desktops, cleaning off the tops of window frames, and don’t forget the baseboards.

Dust the entire home. Be sure to use rags or towels that will collect the dust, instead of spreading it around or pushing it off surfaces onto the floor, where you will just walk on it and kick it around.

All this work means you will be rewarded with less exposure to indoor airborne allergens.

Ducts and vents

Your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system works hard to keep you comfortable, and while it does that, the ductwork gets dusty and dirty. You don’t see it, so the tendency is you don’t worry about it.

Take off a vent or two and inspect. Get out the flashlight. Take a white towel and push it into the ductwork. Does it come out brown? While you can clean the vents, it’s virtually impossible to clean the ductwork yourself. You need to call a professional for the duct cleaning work.

Vacuum and sweep

This is a good time to get out your vacuum, inspect it thoroughly and clean it up, and start vacuuming everything. Every square inch of carpet you can get to and move as much furniture as you can. You would be amazed how much dust can build up under furniture over the winter.

Besides vacuuming the carpet, get a vacuum tool that can handle the hard floors as well. If you use a regular broom, you will stir up the dust and put it up in your breathing space. If you must sweep, find a tool that doesn’t “whisk” the dust up.

A real clean

When you realize the job is tough and you are ready to throw in the towel, do the right thing. Call your favorite cleaning company. After all, it pays to call a pro!

Cleaning the Nooks and Crannies | Carpet Cleaning Huntsville AL

Your home has plenty of areas for dirt and grime to hide. Locating them may seem easy. Cleaning them effectively is something else.

Most homeowners spend plenty of time sweeping, vacuuming, scrubbing, and cleaning areas that are obviously soiled and become soiled daily. There are areas that can really get gross in a short amount of time.

Your bathroom “work stations” — also known as vanity cabinets — are prime locations for soil and gunk buildup.

Let’s spend some time on how to tackle the chore of cleaning the bathroom vanity. One area of the home easy to ignore. After all, who looks in there besides the person searching out some face cream or hand lotion, among other items?

The buildup of residues can wreak havoc over time. Think of hairspray that you use daily and that ends up on the top of the cabinet. It may be easy to clean when fresh but give it 10 or more applications and you have a “goo” that’s not giving up its tenacious hold on the counter. This isn’t to even mention toothpaste and other necessary items that get smeared on the same surface.

Take some time each day — perhaps just a minute or so — to quickly wipe up any residues that land on the surface.

Then, take some time each week — perhaps just five minutes or so — to open up any cabinet doors or mirrors that house storage behind them, remove all objects, and use a household cleaning solution to wipe down all surfaces. After a week, you will still be amazed at how much residue has built up in there. Imagine what could happen after a few months!

And once a month, give your entire bathroom a close scrutiny and look for all those nooks and crannies that can be the host of soil. This could be behind the toilet, in the corners of shower stalls, where the soap resides on the bathtub edge. All these areas could use a good scrubbing each month, if not more frequently.

And all this is besides the typical routine cleaning you no doubt give all your bathrooms.

But when you need your carpets, area rugs, and tile floors cleaned by your favorite cleaning service, do the right thing. Give us a call today. After all, it pays to call a pro! 256-886-9100

Prevention of Seasonal Allergies

The prevention of seasonal allergies is a top priority for millions of people around the world. In many areas of the United States seasonal allergies begin in February and often last until the early summer (and in many cases even through fall).
​Tree pollination begins the earliest but is quickly followed by grass pollination as soon as spring begins. Ragweed, a plant that grows wild almost everywhere, tends to develop in late summer and early fall. Mild winter temperatures can lead to earlier pollination of many plants. Further, a rainy spring can also promote advanced plant growth and can cause an increase in mold. The advancement of mold often causes symptoms to last well into the fall.

Ways to Prevent Seasonal Allergies

As noted, spring means flowers blooming and trees exploding with pollen. If you are among those unfortunate people that are impacted by seasonal allergies, it also means sneezing, congestion, a runny nose and other annoying symptoms. Seasonal allergies (AKA Hay Fever) — makes you feel absolutely miserable. But before you throw out all of your flowers and greenery try the following instead.

Minimize your exposure to allergy-inducing activators. 

• As much as possible take advantage of staying indoors on dry, windy days. The opportune time to go outside is after a thorough rain that has helped to clear pollen from the air.
• Enlist help with lawn mowing, weed pulling and other gardening chores that stir up allergens. Hire or enlist someone to do these things for you. If you just enjoy doing them yourself then wear an allergy mask and do this type work early in the morning when dew is still visible. 
• Change clothes after you have been outside even if only for a few minutes and shower to rinse pollen from your skin and hair.
• Don't hang laundry outside — pollen can stick to sheets and towels.

Shouldn't You Replace Carpets with Hardwood Flooring?

As a professional carpet and floor cleaner I can add a lot of insights into this question.

It is absolutely true that hardwood floors do not "capture" dust mites and other allergy-inducing materials. But this doesn't mean you must go to the huge expense of ripping out your carpets and replacing them with hardwoods.

Why?

The following list of reasons should bring some clarity to the subject.

1. Dust isn't captured by hardwoods like it is by carpeting and area rugs. That is very true. BUT dust does lay on it and is easily stirred into the air by simply walking over it or sweeping it. This means that as you move around the house you are stirring the allergens around and into the air. Therefore you must constantly sweep and/or swiffer the floors. On the other hand, carpet serves as a filter in a similar way that the filter for your heating and air conditioning system does. Yes, carpets "capture" allergens but this is actually a good thing because you are not stirring it around as you walk over it (because it is "captured"). So, if you are an allergy sufferer then rather than replace carpets with expensive hardwoods, simply purchase a high-quality, HEPA type vacuum cleaner and vacuum two ot three times a week. Frequent vacuuming prevents allergens from settling deeper into the carpet fibers. Vacuuming dust is much easier than sweeping and captures it into a bag or bagless container rather than sweeping it into a dust pan. I recommend a heavier vacuum cleaner for allergy sufferers. Heavier vacuum cleaners, like a Kirby, gets the roller brush deeper into the carpet thereby removing embedded dust. Lighter vacuums simply glide across the top of the carpet and merely remove surface dirt. Yes, Kirby's are more expensive (but not as expensive as replacing carpets with hardwoods by any stretch) but you can often can find them used on internet marketing sites like Facebook. Purchasing a new one is always the best choice but they are so well-made that even the used ones are often in excellent condition. Should you decide to purchase a Kirby, new or used, make sure you use the HEPA MICRON MAGIC BAGS. Just shop around. There are many great vacuums out there but you want a heavier one if you are an allergy sufferer. 
2. What's the first thing people do when they lay wood floors or buy a home with wood and tile floors throughout? Buy area rugs, right? Area rugs capture allergens in the same way as carpets do. So, they have not actually solved the allergy problem at all. I am often amazed at how many people call me for area rug cleaning (which is more expensive than cleaning wall-to-wall carpet) and have area rugs in literally every room of their home. Please do not misunderstand me. I love hardwood floors because they can be very beautiful. I have them in parts of my home. I also have area rugs in every room that has hardwoods. But my bedrooms and office are carpeted. My wife and I are both seasonal allergy sufferers. So, if you have area rugs, you are still capturing allergens. 
3. Since it is true that carpets capture allergens then it is also true that every other fabric does so as well. This includes curtains and draperies, mattresses, sofas, chairs, and every other piece of fabric in your home. Unless you replace every piece of furniture and window treatment with plastic or wood you still have the same allergy-capturing issue. And if you do, you will need to be constantly wiping and dusting to keep those allergens from swirling around. Makes perfect sense, doesn't it?

Best Advice for Seasonal Allergy Prevention

My best advice for preventing and minimizing seasonal allergies is to read and implement the bulleted list above. 
Next, give full consideration to the pros and cons of replacing carpeting with hardwoods. It may be the right choice for you but then again, I may have given you a better option. However, should you prefer hardwoods then minimize the number of areas rugs OR at the very least vacuum them two to three times per week with the type of vacuum cleaner recommended above. 

It's obvious that you will not replace all window treatments and furnishing with plastic or wood. This means that all fabrics need to be vacuumed regularly and thoroughly with attachment tools that come with higher quality vacuum systems like the Kirby. This practice will reduce allergens dramatically. 

Lastly, have carpets, areas rugs, furnishings, mattresses and all other fabricked materials professionally cleaned once a year at a minimum. This is the best way to remove all allergens and helps to prevent seasonal allergies and other bacteria-induced illnesses.

As you can see from this post, I am all about saving money. There are ways to prevent seasonal allergies that do not require going to the extreme expense or measures. Do your homework and make the best decision for you and your family. If I can help you in any way, don't hesitate to call me at 256-886-9100.

How to Remove Hard Water Stains

Removing Hard Water Stains

Unsightly hard water stains can affect many surfaces and can be a challenge to remove.

Hard water stains are based on the mineral content of the water in a building or home. It all comes from the ground, so if mineral content is high in ground water, then mineral content in the water you use is going to be high.

Water softeners will solve this issue, but without a water softener system, you will occasionally deal with hard water stains and the challenges inherent with removing them.

Typical spot removers or household cleaners will not affect hard water stains, because they are mineral based. Here are some tips to remove them safely and enjoy a household free of hard water stains.

Identify

You will see hard water stains on sinks, around faucets, and even on textiles that are affected by a plain water spill. They are usually white but can be colored stains as well. If the stain is significant, you can even feel the texture of the stain. This means a bit more work may be involved removing the stain.

Remove

If the surface allows it (make sure you don’t scratch a hard surface and damage it) try scraping away the bulk of the hard water stain, if it has built up enough for you to do this.

For a cleaning agent, start safe and use plain white vinegar. Apply the vinegar to the surface and allow several minutes dwell time, remembering that vinegar can temporarily adversely affect copper surfaces. Scrub carefully and see if the vinegar is reacting with the hard water stain. This may remove most hard water stains.

If that doesn’t work, obtain a stronger acid, such as from your hardware store, that is for cleaning purposes. Wear safety gloves applicable for strong acid cleaners. Apply carefully and this should remove the hard water stain.

You can keep increasing the strength of the acid cleaner until the stain is removed, but always be careful with skin contact and vapors. Follow manufacturer directions.

Neutralize

As with any strong cleaning agent, neutralize after cleaning. This can be with a water rinse and drying with a towel. Very strong acid cleaners should be neutralized with a product for that specific purpose.

But when cleaning challenges are beyond your abilities, do the right thing. Call a professional cleaning company. After all, it pays to call a pro!

Keeping Our Kids Safe and Healthy

As a parent you are always concerned about the health and safety of your children. From that first moment the nurse or doctor placed that precious little one into your arms you knew that you had a big responsibility. BUT, you didn't care. It was a responsibility you gladly accepted.

Even though they can try your patience at times, you love these little blessings with all your heart and soul. That love causes you to want to protect them at any and all costs. 

Keeping your children safe and healthy is such a dominant thought that you consider almost every aspects of their lives. You go to great lengths to keep your home "child-safe."

For example:

 You Consider the Physical Aspects of Your Home

• Every toy is carefully considered and examined for safety before you purchase it
• Safety latches are attached to cabinet doors and drawers
• Electrical sockets are covered with outlet plugs
• Anchors are secured to prevent furniture, TVs and ranges from tipping over and harming your child
• Corner and edge bumpers are added to prevent serious injuries from falls against sharp edges on walls, furniture, and fireplaces
• Knob covers that prevent a child from easily opening doors are secured and attached
• Cordless window coverings are installed to lower strangulation risks

These are but a few of the lengths you go to to keep your children safe.

You Also Consider the Medical Needs and Risks

• You will likely talk with other parents about illnesses and prescriptions. You will want to know what they did when their child had a certain illness and how their child reacted to prescribed medications
• You will make sure you have all the necessary over-the-counter medicines readily-available 
• You will place all medications out of sight and reach of your child
• You will have thermometers, bandages, hydrogen-peroxide, alcohol, saline solution, and MANY other medical items on hand
• Your pediatrician's number will be stored in you phone and written on a card that is attached to the refrigerator 

You Consider the Safety of Household Cleaning Products

• You carefully read the ingredients of cleaning products 
• You read informative articles such as this one
• You watch videos like this one ...

All of the above information is simply the tip of the iceberg of the lengths you will go to in order to keep your precious little one(s) safe and healthy. Beyond this, you will thoroughly check-out playgrounds, pre-schools, daycares, and other such places. 
This is VERY normal and any parent who doesn't consider these items, at least to some degree, is taking unnecessary risks related to their child's health and safety.
We all want safe home, learning, and play environments for our kids. I trust that this post serves as a catalyst for even further research you conduct into keeping your children safe and healthy.

For the Dirty Carpet Hater

Dear Dirty-Carpet Hater,

DO YOU HATE YOUR DIRTY CARPETS?

DO YOU OWN CARPETS THAT YOU BELIEVE NOT ONLY HAVE DIRT AND GRIME IN THEM BUT ALSO BACTERIA, DUST MITES, ALLERGENS, AND OTHER YUCKY STUFF?

ARE YOU AFRAID TO LAY DOWN ON YOUR CARPET BECAUSE IT JUST MIGHT BE HAZARDOUS TO YOUR HEALTH (OR WORSE, YOUR CHILDREN'S HEALTH)?

ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT CALLING A PROFESSIONAL CLEANER BECAUSE YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT PRICE, INTEGRITY, HONESTY, GUARANTEES, ETC.?

Honestly, you should indeed be concerned about any company you hire to clean your possessions and investments. Dishonesty has been a trademark of the carpet cleaning industry for decades. The video below reveals the types of scams and dishonesty that pervades the carpet cleaning industry. The video was first aired 20 years ago and NOTHING has changed in the industry since!

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PTzkR1l-ZU

Thousands of honest homeowners, like YOU, have been ripped-off and lied to by countless so-called "professional" carpet and floor cleaners. 

Many people in this group of "ripped-off" homeowners (and I certainly hope that you are not in that group) have wasted hundreds and hundreds of dollars on these unscrupulous types of cleaners. They have literally flushed their hard-earned money right down the toilet!!! 

You deserve much, MUCH better!!!

I'm Tony Guthrie, owner of Kleaneasy Carpet and Floor Cleaning. If I am fortunate enough to earn your trust and business, here's what I will do for you.

1. I will provide you with a fair and honest price over the phone. I will not bait you with a low price to get the job and then change it when I arrive.

2. I will show up on time and within the time window I gave you when we set the cleaning appointment. 

3. I will show up in a clean, professional van and all of my equipment will be clean as well.

4. I will show up clean cut and wearing a professional company uniform. 

5. I will treat you and your home with dignity and respect. 

6. I will lay out rugs and mats at the entrance of your home so as to not bring more dirt into your home.

7. I will need to bring cleaning hoses that are attached to my van into your home SO I  will hang a curtain over the entry door so as to keep your heat or cool air inside your home.

8. I will pre-vacuum the carpets or tile I will be cleaning so as to remove as much dry dirt as possible. 

9.  I will pre-treat all spots and traffic lanes with a heated environmentally safe cleaning solution with a pressure sprayer. I will then agitate the solution deep into the carpet fibers with a carpet rake or rotary scrubber so as to break down and emulsify deep, embedded dirt.

10. I will steam clean the carpets with a truck-mounted cleaning extractor that will remove deeply embedded soil, gunk, allergens, dust mites, etc. 

11. I will place air-blowers on the carpets to help speed-up drying time.

12. I will post-groom the carpets with a carpet rake that will stand carpet fibers up and help the carpet look virtually new (or as new as possible).

13. I will provide you with a professional carpet audit and recommend a cleaning schedule of how frequently you should have your carpets professionally cleaned. I will also share the benefits of carpet protector and provide you with an estimate of the cost (this service is always recommended but is optional!) 

14. I will leave you with a 60-day spot and stain warranty that says that if any stains return after I leave (not likely) I will return at no cost and try to remove them. 

15. I will explain my full money-back guarantee. 

Why risk getting baited and switched with unscrupulous and 

unprofessional "professional" cleaners?

Dealing with Pet Odor

Removing pet odors from a house is something most pet owners have to deal with (at least from time to time). Oftentimes home-owners with pets become "desensitized" to the actual odors within the home and actually do not notice them as much. Visitors, however, often easily notice these smells.

I once had a friend ask me to come over to his house and see if I smelled anything when I walked in the door. He and his wife owned a large dog that lived inside the home with them. My friend's wife was certain there was no "smell" because she couldn't smell it. The house, however, wreaked of the body odor of a large dog. Since they were trying to sell the house I told them they needed to do all they could to get the scent out.

Well, you may not have an issue like the one I just mentioned. Still, here are some ideas for removing pet odors from your home (just in case).

Vacuum Regularly with a High-Quality Vacuum

Obviously vacuuming with a high-powered HEPA vacuum cleaner 2 to 3 times per week will keep allergens down, prevent dirt from getting deep within the carpet fibers, and will remove pet dander and most hair. It is very important for pet owners to possess higher quality vacuums because the suction and cleaning power is greater.

Regularly Replace the Filter on Your HVAC

Change filters regularly in order to capture particles such as hair, dirt and pet dander and to keep your home smelling fresh.

Clean Stains and "Accidents" Quickly

It’s critical to clean pet accidents and stains quickly to prevent them from setting in. Obviously there will be times when you aren't there when the accident first takes place. If you are unsure of what to do to clean up an accident, call me for the steps. I will be happy to walk you through it.

Freshen the Carpet with Baking Soda

Start by vacuuming the carpet thoroughly to remove dust, dirt, dander and hair. Sprinkle baking soda generously over the carpet. Allow the baking soda to sit for a minimum of 30 minutes (the longer the better). Vacuum the carpet to remove the baking soda and any odors.

Brush and Groom Pets Often

Spending a few minutes every other day brushing your pet will reduce the amount of shedding hair in your carpets. This can also be a fun time for you and your pet. My cat loves to be brushed.

Call Me for Deep Cleaning Once a Year

I use the finest hot water extraction system to remove deep embedded dirt, stains and debris in the carpet and furniture. Yearly deep cleaning can ensure that your carpets and upholstery are not housing odor-inducing elements caused by your pets.

I hope these tips have helped.

Carpet Cleaning Huntsville | The White Towel Test

“Take The White Towel Test…”

Try this: Try putting a clean white towel on the floor just inside your front door. Walk on it. Track stuff in on it. Let the dog sleep on it. Spill stuff on it…Now hereʼs the question: How long would it last? I mean how long would it stay clean? A month? A week…Couple of days maybe? Hereʼs the point: Your carpet gets just as dirty as that towel does! Except if youʼre like most people, itʼs been a year or more since you last had it cleaned.

Your carpet is just like a big filter in your home. It traps dust, pollen, bacteria… stuff you track in from the street. It traps everything! Itʼs actually designed to. (That’s why homes with carpeting have 27% less dust on average than homes with hard floors.) But what happened to all that dust, pollution, and bacteria? It had to go somewhere…Thatʼs right! Itʼs trapped in your carpet. And now your family is living on it! When you walk across your carpet, you stir this stuff into the air, and your family breathes it. This can complicate asthma, irritate your lungs and can even make some people sick!

“What If Your Carpets Donʼt Look Dirty?”

Studies have shown that if you have an average brown carpet, your carpet can hold up to NINE pounds of dirt in a single square yard (thatʼs an area 3 feet by 3 feet) Nine Pounds!! WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING DIRTY! Itʼs crazy, but most people change the air filter in their car more often than they get a good professional carpet cleaning!

“Donʼt Fall Into The Trap”

Letʼs say you had a suit of clothes that cost $1,000 dollars or more…and they were marked, ʻProfessional Dry Clean Onlyʼ. Is there any way youʼd go down to the local dry cleaners without any training and try and use their equipment to clean it yourself? No Way! Would you let someone else with some equipment…but no training clean your suit?

Sadly, less than 30% of ʻprofessionalʼ carpet cleaners have ever attended any kind of class, read a book, or ever attended even a two-hour seminar on how to clean carpet. They have some carpet cleaning equipment, (some of itʼs good, some of itʼs used and run-down…it depends on the company) but most carpet cleaners havenʼt had any more training than you have! Everything theyʼve learned, theyʼve learned through ʻexperienceʼ and making mistakes on other peopleʼs carpets.

What kind of a plan is that? In fact, most carpet cleaners DO NOT follow the manufacturerʼs recommendations for cleaning and many unknowingly void the carpetʼs warranty. They can overwet the carpet, use too much pressure, too much heat, or use chemicals that are so harsh they damage the fibers. The carpets can look clean when they leave, but within a few days, weeks, or months, the carpets can have real problems. Sometimes these problems canʼt be fixed!

Carpet Cleaning Huntsville - Your First Question

Almost every time I answer the phone at Carpet Cleaning Huntsville, the first words out of the potential customer’s mouth is: “How much do you charge for … ?” This, it seems, is the most obvious question. We all want to know what we are paying for goods and services.

But the REALLY BAD assumption that many homeowners make when calling a carpet cleaner is that we are all the same. This is equivalent to assuming that all cars are the same. Obviously they are not. And neither are carpet and tile cleaners.

A Factual Truth

In fact, many “cleaners” who call themselves professionals are not professional at all. Many simply bought some equipment and said, “hey, pay me to clean your carpets.” This in no way makes them a professional, or even a certified professional.

Carpets and upholstery are crafted with fibers and fabrics that require certain understandings and trainings to clean properly. All fibers and fabrics aren’t the same. Truly professional carpet cleaners have been certified and trained in every aspect of cleaning these fabrics and fibers.

Over 80% of “so-called” cleaners have never darkened the door of a cleaning school nor have they received any certifications. The industry standard certification is provided by the IICRC (Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification). Ask yourself, would you call an unlicensed plumber or electrician? Of course not.

About Kleaneasy

At Carpet Cleaning Huntsville we have been certified by the IICRC and have graduated from a few other schools as well. We know that to truly provide professional service we must possess professional training.

Your carpets and upholstery are major investments. Have them cleaned by certified professionals. So, your first question should not be, “How much do you charge to clean …?” Your first question should be, “Is your company certified by the IICRC?”

All the best!

The Service Experience

I think it is safe to say that having lunch or dinner at a typical fast food restaurant, like Burger King is not an experience. We eat at those places because of hunger and convenience. We expect nothing more than a burger, fries, a soft drink and perhaps a clean booth or table in which to sit.

But when we decide to visit a Japanese steak house, well, this is a completely different story. We will sit around the hibachi table and view a menu with people we typically do not know. We don’t mind at all the extremely high price for the steak, shrimp, or chicken. We expect this, otherwise we would not be there.

We patiently wait for the chef to arrive with his table of meats, vegetables, rice, and sauces and spices. We enjoy his presentation as he whirls knives and spatulas around with the precision of seasoned juggler. He builds huge fires and onion volcanoes. He has a quick wit and an impressive charm.

Added to all this, he prepares our meal to absolute perfection. Yes, we attend this place not merely to eat dinner. We attend here to have an enjoyable experience. We don’t mind sharing that experience with people we have only just met.

Experiential marketing is now the thing in business. Businesses do well to provide for their customers something far more than “fixing” something. Intelligent customers know the market is replete with technicians who can repair or clean things. So, the company that makes the service an experience is the company that many people will want to call.

In carpet cleaning the typical service call is quite short. A technician or two run in with a wand and start steaming away. In an hour or so they are running to the next job clinging to the check of the last “victim.” Did they do a good job? Will the stains re-appear in a week or two? Were these techs professionally certified and trained to handle the challenges of the carpet cleaning industry? These and many questions like them should be considered.

At KleanEasy the process is so much more than that. Call us and let is tell you how allowing us to handle your cleaning needs will be more of an experience.

How to Get Rid of Dust Mites

It seems we live in a world of allergy-causing stuff. Dust mites are a major contributor to sneezing, itchy eyes, and scratchy throats. So, "how to get rid of dust mites" may be a prominent question. Fear not, we at Carpet Cleaning Huntsville Al know a thing or two about running the mighty mites out the door. Here are 4 ideas.

• dust with damp cloths as opposed to dry cloths
• Wash bedding regularly in very hot water
• Make sure your vacuum cleaners has a HEPA filter
• Call me :-)

Dust with Damp Cloth

It just makes sense that damp cloths and mops absorb more dust mites. Typically, a dry cloth (and mop) will actually hold mites until you wipe with it. Once that dry cloth is moving as you "dust" the little fellows are released into the air and breathed in by you and your loved ones. 

Damp cloths will hold on tightly to those critters and are washed away in the washing machine. YAY!!!

Wash Bedding Regularly in VERY Hot Water

Washing in hot water will not only wash the mites away but it will kill them. So, if any remain on the bedding after washing (which isn't likely) they will be, hehehe, inactive :-)

It's also so a good idea to vacuum the top of the mattress when bedding is in the washing machine. This further eliminates dust mites and reduces allergens. 

Use a Vacuum with a Hepa Filter

According our good friends at WebMD, 

 Dust mites, mold spores, pollen, and pet dander in the air inside your home can cause problems if your family has allergies or asthma. Using HEPA filters can trap these pollutants and may help bring allergy relief. (see the full article here)

Once you have the HEPA vacuum make sure to use it more frequently than normal. Even if carpets and rugs don't look like the need vacuuming, vacuum anyway. Dust mites love to relax out of site on carpets and rugs and just wait for an opportunity to give you allergy grief. The goal is relief, not grief!

Call Me When It is Time for a Deep Clean

Of course when you have carpet, upholstery, and tile that needs to be deep cleaned ... call me. Deeply embedded mites don't stand a chance with Kleaneasy's cleaning system. This is the best way to get rid of dust mites.


The best!
