"Allergy Sufferers: How to Save $10,000 by Using Your Carpet To Relieve Your Allergy Symptoms" In order to relieve your allergies, have you installed hardwood floors, clean your forced air ducts, but still have tons of dust aggravating your allergies?
Recently I spoke to a client and started to share with him how carpet could help; but the poor man practically cried as he told me he had just ripped out all his carpet and installed hardwood floor.
He said it cost over $10,000; and what's worse, he now has to sweep the dust twice a day! Unfortunately, consumers don't realize the allergy relieving benefits of properly maintained carpet: a 24-hour working air filter. That's right.
Your carpet actually traps pollutants and allergens, holding them for removal with your vacuum. Using a HEPA filtered vacuum will remove the trapped pollutants and dust mite feces without re-distributing them into your air.
After about 6-8 months, you'll want to have your carpets professionally cleaned to keep your carpet's filtering ability in tip-top shape. In July 2003 Cleanfax magazine, Jeff Bishop, technical director of the Institute of Cleaning and Restoration Certification states, "I think there is a misperception about carpet because people find it harder to clean it themselves, although, when you think about it, carpet is far easier and less expensive to ?maintain' than hard surface when you factor in the consumer's time."
Bishop supports the allergy benefits of carpets when properly maintained. But when carpet cleaning is neglected, the consumer has "created a nightmare." Bishop states that, "Rather than take responsibility for this situation themselves, they find it easier to blame the product." So, don't make the mistake and waste $10,000 for hardwood as the solution to relieve your allergies. Instead, clean your carpet to restore the natural filtering process of your carpet.
Also invest in a HEPA filtered vacuum to remove trapped pollutants until your next maintenance carpet cleaning.A great HEPA vaccuum is available at http://www.cleanmyowncarpet.com, and let me know at laura@cleanmyowncarpet.com and I'll be happy to help you out.

Contract Cleaners ? A Guide For Businesses. Part 2
In the first part of this article I put forward 7 questions that I believed were important to ask of your potential cleaning company. In this article I will explain the relevance of the first two questions and the answers you get to you as a business.What is your staff turnover?When the top 150 Cleaning Companies in the UK were asked this question the answer came back as 73%. That means that within a 12 month period 73% of their cleaning staff have left and been replaced. What is the relevance of this figure to you? If the figure you get back is higher than about 25% it is likely that if you engage this firm then you are unlikely to have the same cleaners for very long. You will have a constant stream of new cleaners.
This is not good for building up a working relationship or continuity. Worse still might be the answer ?I don't know exactly' because this probably means they are trying to avoid giving you an insight into the correct figure. They can of course lie!Do you provide...

Carpet Cleaning Machines
There is a wide variety of carpet cleaning machines to choose from. The most commonly used is a vacuum cleaner. Most people prefer an 'upright' vacuum cleaner over a 'canister' for convenience. Some people also like to use a 'hand-held' for stairs and other carpeted areas that don't offer maneuverability.
An 'upright' vacuum cleaner can be used with one or two motors, depending on the type of dirt that accumulates and the type and frequency of cleaning required. Some people also like to use 'spotters' for spot cleaning.
These usually have rotating brushes to scrub the stain off the carpet. In order to select the right carpet cleaning machine, we also need to be sensitive to the fabric that the carpet is made up of.
Another type of carpet cleaning machine is called the 'carpet cleaning extractor'. The extractor is ideal for deep cleaning. Use a regular 'carpet cleaning extractor' or a 'self-contained' one.
A 'carpet cleaning extractor' is suitable...
