Nasutsa Mabwa
March 30, 2016March 20th marks the first official day of spring and the vernal equinox. Many of your neighbors are planning their spring cleaning projects or have already gotten started. Join in on the fun and freshen up your office building’s carpets this spring. Here’s what you need to know before you call your
commercial carpet cleaning
experts at ServiceMaster Cleaning By Simons in Near North, Chicago, IL:
- The area of carpeting to be cleaned in each room
- Which rooms and floors require cleaning
- The size and location of any stains
- Any sections that have been damaged and are in need of repair or replacement
Keep in mind that a larger area of carpeting will be more expensive to clean. Stains that have had longer to set and cover a larger surface area will also be more expensive because they require additional pre-treatment and extraction. As the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) points out, commercial carpet cleaners often need to do their own walk-through of the site before they can provide you with an accurate estimate.
Get to know your carpet cleaning professionals before you ask them for help. Always pick carpet cleaners who are IICRC certified. This means your carpets will be cleaned according to the highest industry standards by technicians who are experts in every aspect of carpet cleaning, repairs, and restoration. ServiceMaster Cleaning By Simons is proud to employ IICRC certified commercial carpet cleaning experts to provide you with thoroughly cleaned carpets whenever you need them, even after a devastating disaster.
Our commercial carpet cleaning experts are equipped with the right equipment and the most current techniques to get your carpets fresh and clean. We start with a walk-through to assess the condition of your building’s carpets so we can choose the best cleaning method for the job. We pre-treat any spots, stains, and soiled areas we find, then thoroughly rinse the entire carpet with clean, hot water. After we groom your carpets for optimal drying, we do a final inspection with you to ensure you are completely satisfied with our work.
