Carpet Cleaning

Residential People ask us all the time, “what is the best thing we can do to maintain our carpeting?” I always say “well there are actually three things, vacuum, vacuum, vacuum.” Dry gritty soil, invisible to the naked eye is what abrades the fibers and prematurely wears it out. Then over time, oily soils, spots, spills and stains begin to show up “uglying the carpet out and causing the dry soil to stick to it which makes the vacuuming less efficient, thus causing wear.

This is where we come in. Our multi-step process for residential Carpet Cleaning Clarks Summit has taken years and much testing to perfect. Truck-mounted hot water extraction is the preferred method that flushes the carpet fibers of the soiling and contaminants leaving it soft, fluffy, smelling fresh and nearly dry.

For the overall experience of having our team clean your carpets first we inspect the carpet, asking you what your concerns are while making recommendations and setting out the plan to remove all the different types of soiling and stains.
Then we pre-vacuum the carpet because we also want to remove loose dry contaminants before any moisture is applied. Next we apply an organic pre-conditioner which breaks down oily soils, organic stains such as coffee and tea, as well as ninety percent of all soil types. The truck-mounted Carpet Cleaning Clarks Summit machine is set up to flush out the soiling as well as the cleaning agents that we applied so no residue is left behind to cause rapid re-soiling. Any remaining stains is detailed and furniture is blocked and tabbed to protect it. High velocity air movers are placed into each area to ensure rapid drying and the carpet pile is re-set.

For many of us that work in tight office areas as well as other facilities where carpeting is present. There is a great need to improve the indoor air quality of our places of business. Simply because one of the greatest health risks and concerns is where we spend a great deal of time, at our work
Carpeting in our facilities does a great job of holding onto contaminants such as dust mites, allergens, and bacteria and keeping them out of our breathing areas.

Upholstery Cleaning

We spend a great deal of time as families in our living rooms, dens, and family rooms watching tv and movies in our favorite chair. Also hanging out on the sofa sectional with our kids and grandkids. While everyone thinks that the most unsanitary rooms in our home would be our bathrooms, actually the truth is the room with the most bacteria is our living rooms and where we hang out the most as families with food spills, and often when we are sick.

Just as carpets and rugs when you need Carpet Cleaning Clarks Summit, it’s very important to have your upholstery cleaned on a regular basis to remove bacteria and contaminants and to extend the life and investment in each piece. It’s also very important that you use a reputable company such as Bill Mountain Thorough Clean who is trained and certified in all types of natural and synthetic materials. We inspect each piece thoroughly, then complete a thorough vacuuming to remove dry soil, dust mite feces, and dander. Next we apply a special upholstery pre-conditioner to emulsify the soils and oils that adhere to the fabric. The material is then flushed with our truck-mounted steam cleaning system using a special tool that dries the material very fast. Usually within 2 hours.

Tile & Grout Cleaning

With the rise of the hard floor surfaces applied to new home construction and remodeling ceramic tile & grout has become very popular. Bathroom floors, and showers along with kitchen floors and entryways are often where these floors are seen. Customers love the various looks and styles the earth tone colors and the rich feel of tile/grout. However, sometimes this has become a challenge for cleaning especially when it comes to cleaning the grout. The grout is usually cementitious so spills and soils seep in and get embedded deep into the grout making removing very difficult for the average homeowner as well as business owner.
Bill Mountain Thorough Clean, along with our high tech tools and equipment applying advanced cleaning agents have become very successful in restoring tile & grout back to its original beauty, just like we deliver exceptional Carpet Cleaning Clarks Summit services.
By applying special cleaning agents that have citrus solvents, surfactants, and special oxygenated ingredients that lift the deeper soils and spills to the surface for removal. We then use tile and grout tools hooked up to our truck-mount vacuum and solution system that uses high pressure to pull all the soiling out. Because of the power of the truck-mount drying is usually very fast within one to two hours.

Pet Stain & Odor Removal

We love pets! For the most part they are a vital member of the family. They grow up with our kids and keep many of our elderly parents and grandparents company. As a nation we spend billions of dollars each year in pet food, supplies and veterinary care. We can’t imagine life without them.

Yet, sometimes our pets have “accidents” in our homes and on our furnishings. In many cases it’s not just a one time accident, but a recurring event that can leave our homes smelling bad, especially in the summertime where humidity is present.

Usually this is the case when a customer calls that they have a bad urine odor in their home. Many times it comes from the carpeting or rugs because dogs and cats often choose to use these types of floor coverings for their own private bathroom! Yuck!

We first inspect the areas using black lights and moisture probes to determine the exact location and what degree of contamination is present. We then outline the areas to make sure that we treat all areas that have been affected.

Depending on the severity of the odor and the amount of urine present will determine the best of the three treatment options for Carpet Cleaning Clarks Summit, tile and grout and more. The first option is for one time accidents and lighter contamination. We can apply an odor counteractant topically, let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes then flush out with hot water extraction. The second plan is to apply the odor counteractant by saturating or flooding the affected areas allowing it to reach the contamination that has seeped it’s way to the carpet backing and padding. We then can extract and rinse the solution out by using a special tool called a water claw that allows us to pull up the moisture through the padding and backing. The final option is to disengage the carpet and pull in back, cutting out the affected padding and discarding it. We then can seal the subfloor, treat both the back and front of the carpet with the odor counteractant and replace the padding with new. After the carpet dries we can then reinstall it over the new padding. This option is fully guaranteed that the odor will be removed.

Carpet and Fabric Protectors

Accidents happen! We love to keep our homes carpeting and upholstery fabrics, our rugs looking pristine for as long as possible. After all, that’s why you look for Carpet Cleaning Clarks Summit services. Yet, we humans and pets live in our homes which raises the chances of spills occurring.

For decades the carpet manufacturers have applied a protector to the carpet fibers. There have been many advances through the years that allows the fibers to resist dry soil, oily spills and soils as well as dyed stains from drinks.

Through everyday walking on and abrasion these protectors will wear off after a period of time, usually in two to three years. However, a reputable carpet and fabric cleaner can safely and professionally re-apply these protectors back on after they have been cleaned. It is always recommended to do so, after all why have your carpets professionally cleaned with incredible Carpet Cleaning Clarks Summit technicians and then leave the fibers exposed for potentially permanent stains?
