Today's cleaning tip for pet owners



Today's cleaning tip for pet owners - animals shed up to 5 kilos of skin and hair a year. This obviously ends up in your carpet and 99% of the time your Vacuum will not be up to the job of removing it. A good way to remove pet hair is to buy a window cleaning squeegee all the £1 stores sell these - Simply run the squeegee one way across the carpet and this will drag the pet hair out of the carpet because due to the friction between the rubber and carpet fibres. Then simply finish off by vacuuming the area. Voila! Clean, Hair free carpets.

I have had a few customer queries in regards to carpet cleaning processes. I like to educate them that I follow a 12 stage, professional, process and if your carpet cleaner doesn't follow at least 9 of these they are not a professionally trained trades person - I like the 12 stage process as it suits my OCD: 
Stage 1: A Pre-Inspection. 
Stage 2: A Pre-Vacuum.
Stage 3: Moving Of The Furniture.
Stage 4: Pre-Stain Treatment & Pre-Conditioning.
Stage 5: Pre-Groom/Agitation.
Stage 6: Rinse & Extraction.
Stage 7: The Neutralization Process.
Stage 9: Protection Treatment (Additional Cost)
Stage 10: The Speed Drying Process.
Stage 11: Post Grooming.
Stage 12: Customer’s Post Inspection.
For further query answers check my FAQs on my website at www.acleanerplace.co.uk.


I was going to include an extra Stage, making it 13 Stages; with Stage 11 being Kori's Softness/Fluffiness test - but I'm not so sure!  Kori's off in the land of nod at the moment, so he hasn't commented yet.
