Keep your Carpets, Floors and Upholstery Looking Great!

You've made an investment in your floor-coverings and furniture.  Let us help you protect that investment with our professional services!  You and your family will enjoy a healthier environment when your carpets, floors and upholstery are refreshingly clean.

Here's how we care for your carpets
Know the facts: No other item in your office or home absorbs more wear and tear on a daily basis than your carpet, and no other item can affect the appearance of your office or home like your carpet can.

Carpets should be professionally cleaned every six months to a year. Not only does ServiceMaster by Blaze have the equipment and expertise to fully remove dirt and detergent, our professionals can help you eliminate moisture from carpet. People using rented equipment often leave the carpet too wet, and they do not fully remove the detergent.

The ServiceMaster Clean exclusive carpet cleaning process includes:
  • Preliminary inspection of your carpets to determine the best cleaning method
  • Pre-treating spots and stains
  • Pre-applying the cleaning shampoo to loosen ground-in soil
  • Rinsing your carpet using clear hot water
  • Post-treating any residual stains
  • Grooming carpet for efficient drying and uniform appearance
  • Placing pads under furniture legs to protect the carpet while drying
  • Performing final inspection with you present to ensure you're completely satisfied

Keep your upholstered furniture looking its best
At home or at work, fabric furnishings can get heavy use and show soil and dirt quickly. ServiceMaster by Blaze professionals are experts at selecting the correct cleaning system for particular fabric types and soil conditions.

For all upholstery cleaning, our technicians use specially designed products, equipment and methods every step of the way, from initial vacuuming and spot treatment to shampooing, rinsing and water extraction to washing and polishing frames.

In the office, modular systems and furniture get the same care we devote to your sofas and chairs at home. ServiceMaster by Blaze provides a process that ensures the removal of soil while never risking damage to your investment.

ServiceMaster by Blaze makes hard floors shine
With advanced products and extensive field experience, ServiceMaster Clean has developed superior programs and regimens to care for a variety of floor surfaces including marble, vinyl, ceramic, quarry tile and wood. The result? Enhanced floor protection, slip resistance and appearance.

For marble, ServiceMaster Clean has a proven scientific process designed to restore slightly scratched marble and keep it meeting your expectations for a long time.

Real wood flooring can be expensive, but caring for it doesn’t have to be. ServiceMaster by Blaze believes your wood floors should always look new, and we work to see that they do by using our specially formulated wood care products.

The benefits of our proprietary approach to floor care include:

  • Superior clean and shine
  • Reduced wear on floor surfaces
  • No burn marks
  • Faster and more efficient regular cleaning
  • Dust-free burnishing
  • Enhanced slip resistance
  • Fewer strippings required

Upholstery Care Tips
Do not place the furniture in direct sunlight
Sunlight’s powerful ultraviolet rays will cause damage to your fabric over time.

Rotate and reverse all of your loose cushions and pillows every 1 to 2 weeks
All foam, no matter how good the grade, will begin to compress and lose some of its spring with continued use.  Rotating the cushions ensures more even wear on all cushions.  Vacuum the furniture every two weeks for furniture which receives daily use.

Have your upholstered items cleaned every few years
Please don’t attempt to dry-clean or wash your own seating unit; it requires the assistance of professional furniture cleaners.  Do not remove cushion covers for separate dry-cleaning or washing, even though they may have zippers.  Cushion covers also require cleaning by competent furniture professionals.

Blot any spilled liquids immediately taking care that all liquid is absorbed
Never rub the area!  Rubbing only forces the spill deeper into the fabric.  To prevent spreading, be sure to work from the outside of the area to the inside.  Always follow the cleaning procedure provided by the furniture manufacturer, when possible.  Test any cleaning method in an inconspicuous area to check for any dye bleed.

Carpet Care Tips

Tips on keeping your carpet looking beautiful
Use a high quality vacuum.  Bargain vacuums often don’t have the ability to lift all the grime and grit from carpet fibers.  Over time those soils grind into the delicate fibers, cutting them and causing carpets to look dull and dirty even after being freshly cleaned.

Vacuum high traffic areas on a daily basis.  Peripheral areas need slightly less attention, but should still be vacuumed at least twice a week.  Most carpets are designed for frequent vacuuming.  Daily vacuuming of your carpet will not wear it out!
