Q.Need to clean five rooms, a hallway, landing and two flights of stairs in a London Victorian terrace house. The carpets are probably 20 years old and fairly grubby. I've seen normal carpet cleaning, carpet dry cleaning and carpet steam cleaning by different companies that will come do it. Or I could hire a machine and do something myself. What do people recommend for best cleaning, value, ease?
A.Professional Steam cleaning is the best choice. Their truck mounted equipment is far superior to anything that you can rent or buy because the steam has to be very hot to kill the bacteria.
You can't get the steam hot enough with household or rental machines.
1.00How can I get contracts for my New Carpet Cleaning Business?
Q.Do any one have any ideas or suggestions on how I can go about getting new contracts for my new Janitorial business? I offer carpet cleaning, residential and commercial cleaning, move in/move out cleaning. Should I do cold calling to different businesses? Flyers? How can I go about putting a proposal for companies to bid on my company to clean for them? Help Me out people.
A.You might as well forget the Internet because it's global - you need to target your efforts locally. This is best done in the newspaper, direct mail, and cold calling. Here's an idea:
Call the business and get a price quote from THEM instead of the other way around. You'll find out what price YOU need to charge to get their business that way.

1.00Can carpet cleaning companies do a better job than me at cleaning the carpet?
Q.Do they have better chemicals and equipment for cleaning the carpet than renting from the store, I want to make sure my carpet is top notch for move out inspection.
cArpet isnt really dirty but i have these red stains from a cake icing on my sons carpet
A.I own a carpet cleaning company and I yes we do have better chemicals and equipment. I use a truck mounted unit that cost over 35k I carry my own soft water (cleans better) and have over 20 different kinds of cleaning chemicals in my van.
Red stains are hard to get out but a good company should be able to get them out. Do not use any house hold chemicals on them as they can set the stains permanently.
Always get a company that uses hot water extraction this is the type of cleaning recommended by the EPA and every major textile manufacturer in the us.
1.00What is good for carpet spot cleaning?
Q.I had some dirt spots in my carpet. I tried spot cleaning and then using my carpet cleaning machine to clean the rest of the carpet and to suck up the access water and cleaning solution were I hand scrub the carpet. After it dried up the spots are worse now? What can I do to correct this?
I've tried using boiled water and my steam cleaning machine, it mostly dry now. It look like it work, but I will know for sure by tommorow.
The first three answers are good, however the third answer did not give me a solution.
A.It could be that the spots are deeper than you think. If it got dirtier when you used the cleaning machine, it is possible that whatever is there is being drawn up as the carpet cleaner goes across it. I have used "Spot Shot" spray on carpet cleaner and it has worked great for surface stains. It would be worth a "Shot". Otherwise you can try using Oxy Clean with hot water in your carpet cleaner.
