Cleaning in Austin, texas

As a home or business owner with a hardwood floor, you probably appreciate the aesthetic of your floor, and do your best to keep it in good condition. But do you know what you should do when you notice that your hardwood floor has become discolored in some areas? What about when your floor has tons of little scratches and marks that won’t go away?

Steam Team Hardwood Cleaning


There are plenty of services out there that can refinish your hardwood floor, but they won’t all do the job the same. Most companies will agree with you on a specific time, and then come in start working on the floor without much prior consultation. But here at The Steam Team, we want to take our time to get the job done right, so that you won’t have to call us up to come fix a mistake later down the line. When you give The Steam Team a call about your hardwood floors, our professionals will give your floor a thorough inspection first, asking you questions along the way and walking you through the best solutions for your floor. Then they’ll begin extensive damage repair, fixing all cracks and splits in the hardwood before they move on to a full cleaning. Once the floor has had a full cleaning and abrasion, it’ll be ready for refinishing.


For the actual refinishing, two separate coats of sealer will be applied. Once they’ve both had time to dry, your hardwood floor will be cleaner and brighter than ever before, and it’ll be strengthened for years to come.

Window Draperies and Cleaning Tips

We know that your draperies are delicate and this can cause you to neglect them on cleaning day. But the cleaning process for draperies isn’t as complicated, or dangerous, as one might think! In fact, oftentimes your drapes can be steam cleaned without being removed from where they hang, making the process simple and quick! Let The Steam Team show you how to care for your window draperies!

 

Drapery Cleaning Without Removal

 

As we mentioned before, we can clean your drapes without even removing them. The process is just as effective- we promise. Basically, we’ll use a low moisture, hot water extraction method, or a dry cleaning method to safely remove dust, dander, dirt and other particles from your draperies. They’ll be clean as a whistle afterward! And there’s no need to worry about drying; so little moisture is used, they’ll dry quickly!

 

How to Care for Your Drapes

 

Here are a few tips for caring for your draperies:

 

Rotate Your Drapes

 

Sunlight causes fading and discoloration. Make sure you’re rotating your drapes every once in a while, so they wear evenly.

 

Protect Them From Moisture

 

Next, protect your drapes from moisture. This means watching out for leaky windows and condensation! Don’t forget to call in the pro’s for an occasional treatment.

 

Follow Washing Instructions

 

If you have to remove your drapes and wash them in the washing machine, it’s best to know the settings required, or if they can be machine-washed at all. Read the instructions on the washing label, and follow them carefully!
