Keep Your Floors Clean for Barefoot Summer Traffic

With summer fast approaching it makes sense to start thinking about how to keep your floors clean during this high traffic, barefoot time of year. You know the time when the kids are running inside and out dripping wet from the pool, and when the picnic guests are trotting through the hallways to use the bathroom. It can put a lot of wear tear, dirt and debris onto your floors.

Keeping the Floors Clean in Summer

Whether you have carpet, tiles, wood flooring or vinyl, the fact remains that you want to keep your home clean and hygienic at all times. Especially if there are little ones crawling around and to ensure no one gets a rock or other debris stuck under their foot walking through your house.

While chasing behind everyone with a mop as they enter and leave might help, it’s no way to spend your weekends.

Opt for a deep cleaning session with professionals.

Calling in a team of professionals is the best way to get your floors ready for the barefoot season and to keep them clean throughout the warmer months. A professional carpet cleaning will get much deeper into the fibers and not just pick up loose debris but actually wash, agitate and soften up your carpets so they’re fresh, soft to walk on and odor free. Have hardwood? Professional cleaning is going to do more than push around the dirt, it’s going to lift up the dirt and clean the surface without damaging or changing the appearance.

Celebrating National Clean Your Floors Day

Here at Always Clean it is our dedication to provide you with cleaning services that keep your floors spotless in any room and whatever type of flooring you have. It’s only natural that we dedicate a post on our blog today to celebrating “National Clean Your Floors Day.”

Each year on August 3rd, homeowners everywhere spend the day mopping, scrubbing, soaking and getting the floors in their home clean. Sometimes that’s harder said than done. The dingy grout that won’t seem to come clean, that old stain in the carpet that’s settled in far too long.

To make the celebrations even better, we’re overviewing some of our top tips for keeping your floors clean and reminding you why professional services are best in many cases.

Carpet Cleaning Tips

If you’ve tried everything to get the carpets in your home looking bright and feeling soft like they used to, just vacuuming isn’t going to do it. You need agitation and high levels of hot water to help pull out stains and get the fibers but in good condition. Much like washing your hair, it needs to be rinsed, conditioned and dried properly to get it looking great. A professional cleaner has access to the equipment and technique required to finally get those carpets looking clean and feeling great again.

How to Safely Clean Vinyl Flooring

Vinyl flooring has many risks when it comes to cleaning. It’s easier to damage if handled too roughly and getting older, worn vinyl to look clean can be really difficult. A professional cleaning will use a special neutralizing solution to balance the pH on the floor and use a sealer to restore it to a glossy look.

Hardwood Floors

Just short of having to go through a pricey buffing and resealing of your hardwood floors, there is hope for getting your floors clean again and looking great. The problem with floors that haven’t been cleaned thoroughly over time is that dirt and debris settle into the wood and lifting it won’t work with just an average surface cleaning. Professional hardwood floor cleaning equipment that gets deeper into the pores and lifts out dirt is necessary.

Tile & Grout

While hard tile flooring might seem easy to keep up with since you can mop with detergents frequently, you’ll notice over time that the floor still looks dingy, dully an even dirty along the grout lines. That’s because using the soap and mop method is only adding a layer of grime and film on top of the tiles. The only way to get this up is to use high heat and a massive amount of suction. We use a very powerful Turbo Cleaning Tool to clean and rinse your dirty tile and grout.
