Searching for a good value in cleaning and restoration service providers?  Choose your service-provider wisely and choose once. Choose ServiceMaster Restoration By Simons.



By Sam Simon

We here at ServiceMaster Restoration By Simons, Chicago-land’s leader in Cleaning and Restoration, spend plenty of time fielding phone calls from potential customers with questions about our service, questions about pricing and the occasional “I’ve spilled wine on my carpet, what should I do?”  As experts in the field of cleaning and restoration, we are more than happy to answer questions and to provide helpful information and service.  We’re asked from time-to-time “Why so expensive?”  “Why is the other company’s prices cheaper?”  The answer we give our potential customer is usually the same.  It’s not that ServiceMaster Restoration By Simons is expensive, it’s that we are good. We do the job once and we do it right.

Cleaning and Restoration Deal



There are plenty of companies that offer the “everyday low price of $20” to clean your entire home of carpeting.  It sounds like a great deal, in most cases it’s not.  Customer’s may find that $20 gets the cleaning company in the door.  You want hot water to clean the carpets? That’s extra.  Soap? That’s extra.  Spots or stains removed?  That’s extra.  You’re paying the same price, if not more than the price you were quoted by ServiceMaster Restoration By Simons.

When you’re quoted a price for cleaning services, like Carpet Cleaning, it’s up-front-pricing.  We know that if you are calling for a cleaning or restoration service, your floors are muddy from the sewer backup in your basement. Or, your space smells like smoke from the pot roast that burned on the stove. It’s because your carpet is dirty, or your home or business is dusty from a recently completed remodeling project.  We provide hot-water-extraction.  We provide detergent and conditioners.  We remove stains in your carpet.  All built into the cost that we’ve quoted.  No up-sell.   You want the job done right.  You want it done once.
