4 Steps To A Fresh, Clean, Healthy Carpet
If you’re thinking about having your carpets cleaned, I encourage you to follow these 4 Steps:
4 Steps To A Fresh, Clean, Healthy Carpet
Step # 1: Make a commitment to yourself to get your carpets cleaned. The longer they remain dirty, the sooner they’ll wear out. Plus you have to breathe all the pollens, fungus, chemicals, and dust mites that live in your carpet.
Step # 2: List your objectives. Do you want only the dirt removed, something you could do with a rented machine? Or do you want the bacteria, fungus and chemicals removed, which will required a hot water truck mounted cleaner, like us? Do you want to work with an honest, reputable company-or are you willing to risk working with the company that offers you the lowest price-knowing that company might not be in business tomorrow?
Step # 3: Ask questions. The way you learn about a company is to ask specific questions and listen carefully to the answers. Here are questions I suggest you ask:
1. What method of carpet cleaning do you recommend?
2. What type of equipment do you use to clean carpet?
3. What does your equipment remove from my carpet?
4. How often should I get my carpet cleaned?
5. What training have you had in cleaning carpets?
6. Are you a member of any trade associations and, if so, which ones?
7. Are you certified by IICRC and will you show me your certificate?
Step # 4: Once you’re satisfied that you’re working with an honest, competent professional, invite him into your home and ask for a specific quotation in writing. A written quotation gives you the assurance that you know exactly what your job will cost- no surprises.
By following these four recommendations, you’ll gain all the information you need to make an informed, intelligent decision. If you want a quick, cheap carpet cleaning job, many companies in the phone book can help you, or you can rent a shampooer and do the job yourself.
But if you want your carpeting to be completely and thoroughly cleaned-removing the bacteria, fungus, chemicals, pollens, and tobacco products-then I invite you to call us.
We’ll be happy to answer your questions and come into your home and give you a free demonstration and Carpet Evaluation-without obligation of any kind, naturally.
To reach us today call 832-1524
Or, if you prefer, just leave your name and telephone number and we’ll glad to return your call.
You could even shoot me an email, maxcare@flooringam.com

PS: Here’s one last point: We know that many consumers are skeptical about carpet cleaning companies. Before getting into the business, I was skeptical too. So in addition to dedicating our business to consumer education, we do one more thing as well.
We stronglyguarantee our work. That’s right. We fully guarantee every carpet-cleaning job we do. If you aren’t happy with our work, we’ll re-clean the area for free. And if you still aren’t pleased, you can have your money back. What could be more fair?
As a matter of fact, add this question to the list.
Question #8 is “Do you guarantee your work?” Not all companies do -and it’s important that you have this information before you make your decision. Satisfaction guarantees don’t count either. We’ve heard some incredible stories about how cleaners have weaseled their way out of refunds on satisfaction guarantees. Get a copy of the company’s guarantee up front.
