Boise Idaho Carpet Cleaning

Get Ready For Your Carpet Cleaning Visit

Carpet Marshal has been cleaning carpets in the Boise, Idaho area for over 13 years. During this time we have learned a lot about what makes a great carpet cleaning experience for our customers. We have found that it really important for us to work together with the home owner. Taking a few simple steps will make a big difference in the outcome of your carpet cleaning job. Carpet Marshal is dedicated to making our experience the most positive and satisfying of any Boise carpet cleaner. 

No matter what carpet cleaning company you choose, or if you live outside the Boise, Idaho area, follow these simple steps prior to your carpet cleaning appointment:

·         Please bring to your technician's attention any spot or stains that may require special attention.

·         Please vacuum your carpet the day of the appointment.

·         Any small pieces, such as dining room chairs, magazine racks, floor plants, etc. which you can remove from the carpet to be cleaned will shorten processing time and return the carpet to normal use sooner.

·         For your pet's peace of mind (and our's) please put them in a safe, quiet, place where the cleaning won't disturb them.

·         China cabinets, sectional sofas, entertainment centers, antiques, large TV's, electronic equipment, computers, pianos and fragile furniture cannot be moved. Most companies will move any coffee tables, chairs, couches and smaller items that you would like. Beds, dressers, desks and other such heavier items may be moved upon request, usually for an additional charge. It is best to inform the company before the appointment if large items will need to be moved.

·         PLEASE DO NOT MOVE YOUR FURNITURE PRIOR TO CLEANING AS WE NEED TO PRESPRAY THE WALKWAYS. IF YOU DO MOVE FURNITURE, PLEASE MOVE IT OFF CARPETED AREAS.

·         Remove all breakable items from the furniture which will have to be moved temporarily.

·         You should always try to avoid walking on carpets that are not dry. Walk on carpet at your own risk until completely dry. Floors may be slippery when wet, especially walking from tile to carpet. Please advise all occupants of this hazard.

·         Infants that are crawling must remain off the carpet for 24 hours.

·         Keep children and pets away from hoses, equipment, cleaning products and work area.

·         Please pin up any full length draperies so that they will be at least 6 inches off the carpet.

·         Also, please pin up any skirts on upholstered furniture which may be touching the carpet.

·         MOST IMPORTANTLY, IF THERE IS ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO MAKE YOUR EXPERIENCE A BETTER ONE, LET THE COMPANY KNOW YOUR REQUEST. Good carpet cleaning companies will go out of their way to make sure you are completely satisfied. You should always choose a company that guarantees their work 100%.

 

Ceramic and Porcelain Tile Care Guide

Carpet Marshal has compiled these tips to help you care for your tile. Carpet Marshal is the premier cleaning company servicing Boise Idaho, Portland Oregon, and Provo Utah.

DOS AND DONT’S

·         Don’t use vinegar, bleach, ammonia, or any other general purpose cleaners.

·         Do use felt floor protectors under your chairs and furniture to prevent scratching of your tile.

·         Do place a small rug or mat at entryways to trap dirt and sand from normal foot traffic.

·         Do dust or vacuum frequently.

·         Do cleanup food products quickly to prevent staining.

No matter how careful you are, spills are going to happen. A quick response can keep spills from damaging your tile and grout.

Food Spills- Scoop up the food with a plastic spoon. Blot with dry white cloth. Spray with a tile and grout cleaner and wipe dry with a clean cloth.

Liquid Spills- Blot away excess liquid with a clean, dry, white cloth. Spray with a tile and grout cleaner and wipe dry with a clean cloth.

Mud- Let the mud stain dry completely. Remove dried mud with a soft plastic or nylon brush. Spray area with a tile and grout cleaner and wipe dry with a clean cloth.

Oily Stains- If you identify the stain as having an oil base (from foods like salad and cooking oils, butter, or some cosmetics) you may be able to remove the stain using a “poultice”. Poultice is an easy to use paste designed to slowly remove oily stains from hard surfaces.
