Who Cleans Up After Construction Or Remodelling?

If you’ve recently had a large construction or remodelling job done on your property, whether by yourself or a contractor, you were likely left with quite a mess to clean up afterwards. Construction and remodeling jobs are bound to require lots of cleaning, and we think The Steam Team should be part of your plan for post-construction cleanup. Here’s how our professional process works:

Clearing Debris and Surface Cleaning

After construction, the first thing to clean up will be the large pieces of debris. Pieces of wood, paint chips or other debris may be all over your home counters, floors or furniture. That’s where our technicians will start. Once all large debris is removed, they’ll remove all smaller debris like sawdust or anything else spread around by the construction. All countertops, shelves, windows and countertops will be cleaned by hand, all floors will be sanitized, vacuumed or mopped. Furniture will be thoroughly cleaned with whichever product and method is preferred for your specific material. Our technicians always take great care when cleaning a home or business to meet your needs.

Finishing Touches

Once common problem with construction and remodelling jobs is that small debris can also get inside of air conditioning vents and cause problems for the home as well as health hazards. We’ll keep the air ducts clean, and then move on to smaller things around the property like electronics, light fixtures and small appliances. At the end of the professional cleaning process, your home or business will be not only newly renovated, but completely clean!

The Best Time of the Year to Clean Your Floors

Janitorial Cleaning Downtown Austin

When you decide to have your floors professionally cleaned for the first time, it’s a big deal.  It means you’re ready to fully eradicate the germs, allergens, and dust mites around your home, and you know the professionals are the best ones for the job. Well done!

But now that you’re following through with a professional treatment, you’re bound to have questions! What kind of treatment should be used? Which areas of the house are priority? And most of all, when should the professionals come?

Don’t worry- The Steam Team has answers. Below, we’ll discuss a few deciding factors to consider when scheduling a professional cleaning.

How Are Your Allergies?

If there’s one thing carpets are good at, it’s holding in allergens and pet dander. If you’re prone to sneezing fits, itchy eyes, and other telltale allergy symptoms, we recommend having your floors cleaned after Thanksgiving. Allergens are insufferable this time of year.

With The Steam Team’s help, you can avoid a winter of runny noses!

How Heavy is the Foot Traffic?

With frequent family gatherings, Christmas parties, and other get togethers, the holidays typically bring on an excess amount of foot traffic. Whether it’s Grandpa’s trailing pipe smoke, or your sister’s puppy who’s not-so-housetrained, once the festivities are over, your carpet will need a touch of tender loving care.

What’s on the Calendar?

Timing is different for everybody. Are you having a guest staying for a while in February? Are you considering putting your house on the market in the spring? Thinking of your future timeline can help you pick the perfect time to clean the floors what will be most worth your while.

This holiday season, give your home the gift of freshly steam cleaned carpeting. Santa- we mean, The Steam Team insists!
