Is Your Cleaning Getting The Job Done Right?

Cleaning Services Austin

Cleaning at least a couple times a month or better yet, once a week, can be a good way to keep your carpet from getting full of dirt and other debris. Unfortunately, even with frequent cleaning in Austin, lots of debris and bacteria remain deep within the carpet fibers. If you happen to have lots of stains in your carpet, vacuuming won’t do much about that either. Having your carpet professionally steam cleaned every once in a while is a great way to ensure a full clean. Here’s some information on our very own professional carpet cleaning service and stain removal here at The Steam Team.

Say Goodbye To Carpet Stains!

No stain in your carpet can withstand the high-powered cleaning technology used by Steam Team technicians. And it's not just stains either! We can also use modern cleaning methods to remove any unwanted odors from your carpet. Have your pets left odor-filled stains all over your carpet that have been there for years?

The Professional Experience

We don’t believe in wasting your time. We also don’t want your carpet cleaning to be rushed.

One of the things that sets us apart is that our technicians will spot-test their preferred cleaning method so that you can see the results before they move on to the full cleaning. If you don’t like how it turns out, we’ll try something else. Our technicians won’t rest until they find a cleaning method that suits your needs. At the end of the cleaning process, we’ll apply a powerful carpet protector to keep your carpet from further stains and damage.

Thinking Of Staining Your Concrete Floor? Read This First

Commercial Cleaning Professionals Austin, Texas

More and more people seem to be interested in getting concrete floors installed in their homes or patios, largely due to the fact that with proper staining a concrete floor can have it’s look drastically changed! But, is concrete staining really worth it? And how should you go about doing it? Here’s some expert advice from us here at The Steam Team:

Things To Consider For Concrete Staining

Staining your concrete can be a great idea, and a stained concrete floor can be much easier to maintain than many other flooring options. In fact, stained concrete floors are the longest-lasting flooring option you can choose. That’s because unlike other floors, stained concrete does not crack, chip or peel. Besides occasionally wiping it with a damp cloth, your floor won’t require much upkeep.

Do you like the sleek look of natural stone? Or what about the homely look of a wood floor? Or stone tile? Whatever your preference, concrete staining can create the appearance of any of these options, and many more! It also just happens to be much cheaper than these other flooring options. That means you get the ideal look for a fraction of the price! 

The Steam Team Staining Experts

Quite a bit of work goes into staining concrete, and it may take you hours to do on your own, not to mention the time it takes to purchase all the products and equipment needed for the job, and the hours spent researching to make sure you’re doing it right. For many people who want to stain their concrete floors, professional help is the way to go. 

Here at The Steam Team, we have a dedicated team of professional technicians ready for any concrete staining job. They’ll utilize only the most effective and powerful equipment to get the job done in a small fraction of the time it would take the average homeowner to do alone.

Steam Team: What to Know About Carpet Cleaning

Cleaning Service

When it comes to the cons of installing carpet in your home, the inevitable stains, spills, rips, and shedding are just the tip of the iceberg. What’s worse, you ask? A carpet’s shrinkage.

We know- before you read this blog, you had no idea that carpet could shrink, and you’re immediately frustrated that your once perfect living room floor could someday be very much so imperfect. Fortunately, we’re here to take the edge off. We’ll explain why carpet shrinkage occurs, and how you can avoid this potential-problem altogether!

Causes of Carpet Shrinkage

Carpet shrinkage has everything to do with the carpet’s moisture content. For instance, a change in ambient humidity levels, or the carpet being overly-wet during a cleaning could cause shrinkage or expansion. Naturally, outdoor carpet is even more prone to shrinking if not installed correctly.

Don’t worry- if your carpet was properly installed, it shouldn’t shrink or expand, but it’s still wise to know the signs. Are the seams in your carpet splitting? Is your carpet pulling itself away from the room’s perimeter?

Professional Care vs DIY

The DIY debate will always be around. It’s easy to consider cleaning your carpets yourself, with a multitude of online resources at your fingertips. But as a leading professional steam cleaning company in Austin, TX- we always encourage our customers to have their carpets professionally treated at least once a year (depending on the amount of traffic your flooring endures).

And of course, if you suspect your carpet is shrinking or you’d like to ensure your new carpet is installed properly, don’t hesitate to contact the pro’s. The Steam Team has the knowledge, experience, and equipment to make sure your project begins and ends smoothly. Give us a call today!
