Get the Dirt Out

At National Multi Steam we understand that over 95% of all dirt you find in your house comes from outside. Offenders such as soil, dust, pollen, air pollution and many other sources get into your house and cause that endless cycle of cleaning, dusting and vacuuming.

Does it seem like you’re continually losing this battle to the elements?

Why not be proactive in while engaging in your line of defence? Dirt has sharp edges and wears down the fibers in your carpet. Vacuum regularly and place a welcome mat at your home’s entrances. Place commercial floor mats at high traffic entry doors. Also consider a “no shoes” policy. High traffic areas can often use vacuuming once a day while low traffic areas can be vacuumed a couple of times a week.

Your carpet was designed for frequent vacuuming. Daily or weekly vacuuming will not wear it out. Keep the outside of your house as clean as possible.

Keep the Great Outdoors Where it Belongs

Looking to keep dirt out of your home?

Keep the walk ways leading to your house clean by occasional sweeping, purchasing an entrance rug and considering a no-shoes policy. This will dramatically cut down on the amount of dirt, pollen, bacteria and allergens being tracked into your house.

We at National Multi Steam have found that most of your carpet destroying culprits are brought in by family, guests, and pets.

By simply making a habit of wiping your feet each time you enter your home you are saving money of cleaning products, energy, and wear and tear on your vacuum cleaner!

There’s Nothing Like the Look of a Clean Carpet…

At National Multi Steam we recommend to all our customers that they consider having their carpets professionally cleaned at least once a year. We modestly recommend a professional cleaning twice a year for those that have active children or household pets.

National Multi Steam understands that carpet cleaning can be one of the last things homeowners want to think about. That is why we promise to take all the guess work and hassle out of it for you. Waiting too long to have your carpet cleaned will start to deteriorate your investment. Dirt and grime take it’s toll on even the toughest of fibers.

Consult your manufacturers specifications for what type of cleaning method is appropriate for your type of carpet or simply give us a call. After all, that’s what we do!

There are five different types cleaning home or business owners like you should be aware of…

Because it Happens When You Least Expect It

National Multi Steam also highly recommend using Soil Blaster for spot removal. Most cleaning solutions are based upon cationic chemistry, that is, they contain positively charged cleaning agents.

Although they may clean with varying degrees of success, they leave behind a positively charged residue. This residue acts like a magnet and attracts soils and dirt (which are negatively charged), causing re-soiling of the area.

Precisely what homeowners don’t want! National Multi Steam likes to give our customers the upper hand in preventative maintenance. Another great purchase is a bottle of Folex from a local Home Depot. Both are low residue, neutral pH cleaners which will keep the spot from returning.

These Tempting Drinks are Your Carpet’s Worst Enemy

Fruit punch and red wines have extremely powerful dyes in them. When that same dye is spilled into your carpet, it can create permanent color change.

If the stain is allowed to set, it may sometimes be a chore for National Multi Steam.We would like to give you some tried and true tips for maximum cleaning protection before we stop out for a visit.

Here are just a few helpful tips you can try! Keep White Wine Handy: White wine can be your true companion in the event of a red wine spill. White wine acts as a neutralizer for red wine and will make it easier to lift the color off of your carpet or clothing.

Simply pour white wine over the stained area and very gently blot the liquid up with a thick towel (be very careful not to rub as this will force the stain into the carpet or clothing fibers).

Once you have the majority of the spill blotted up, take your favorite carpet shampoo or clothing stain remover, whichever the case may be, and clean as you would if the wine stain were a bit of dirt on the carpet or clothing.

Got Salt?: It’s true. Dousing a stain with a healthy dose of regular table salt will not only disinfect but pull out out to 90% of the stain. Simply leave the salt on the stain for at least a day before vacuuming it up.

Scotch Guard For Maximum Protection

At National Multi Steam we have found that there is quite a difference between protected and unprotected carpets and rugs.

Taking the time to scotch guard your carpets will add many years to the life of your flooring investment. Next to regular visits from us, scotch guarding will keep your rugs and carpet looking newer longer.

As you scotch guard, you keep your carpets protective barrier from breaking down through providing a seal of protection against dirt, water, or eminent stains. The more preventative measures and cleaning you do now will add value by giving your carpet a fresh new appearance year after year.

We at National Multi Steam truly want to help you get more life out of your carpet!
