Stanley Steemer knows how hectic your life can be. The last
thing you need is more complications, which is why they make having
your carpet and upholstery cleaned as hassle- and stress-free as
possible.
Pre-Visit
There is very little that you need to do to prepare your home
for our arrival. The only thing Stanley Steemner asks is that you
remove any breakables or valuable items from the rooms being
cleaned. Their technicians will handle moving furniture and other
items the day they arrive.
During the Visit
Once Stanley Steemer's technicians arrive, they will conduct
a pre-inspection of the rooms and/or items to be cleaned, noting
any heavily soiled areas or traffic patterns. They will also
discuss the process with you and answer any questions you may have.
They will carefully move any furniture from the rooms (except very
large items, such as pianos, china cabinets, entertainment
armoires, etc.). To ensure the most thorough cleaning, technicians
will pre-treat any areas of concern, and then clean the entire area
using Stanley Steemer's exclusive hot water extraction method. Once
they have cleaned the room, they will apply any requested
deodorizer or protector, and groom the carpet. Finally, they will
return your furniture to its original location, placing protective
blocks under the legs. Once all rooms/upholstery have been
serviced, the technicians will complete a final inspection with you
to ensure that you are 100% satisfied with cleaning.
Post-Visit
While Stanley Steemer's truck-mounted vacuum system removes
almost all of the moisture immediately, your carpet or upholstery
may still be damp to the touch. Using fans in any rooms cleaned and
turning your air conditioning system on can help accelerate drying
time. Be sure to leave the protective blocks under furniture legs
and any paper used with upholstered items in place until the carpet
and/or furniture is completely dry to avoid any color transfer.
You may walk on your carpet immediately after cleaning, but
avoid wearing street shoes, as they may re-soil your carpet. Be
especially careful when walking from damp, carpeted areas on to
non-carpeted areas to avoid slipping.
If for any reason, you are not completely satisfied with the
work performed, simply notify Stanley Steemer within ten days of
the cleaning and they will be happy to address any concerns you may
have.
