Here's How We Care for Your Carpets ...

Know the facts: No other item in your office or home absorbs more wear and tear on a daily basis than your carpet, and no other item can affect the appearance of your office or home like your carpet can.

Carpets should be professionally cleaned every six months to a year. Not only does ServiceMaster Clean have the equipment and expertise to fully remove dirt and detergent, our professionals can help you eliminate moisture from carpet. People using rented equipment often leave the carpet too wet, and they do not fully remove the detergent.

The ServiceMaster of Portland exclusive carpet cleaning process includes:

1. Preliminary inspection of your carpets to determine the best cleaning method
2. Pre-treating spots and stains
3. Pre-applying the cleaning shampoo to loosen ground-in soil
4. Rinsing your carpet using clear hot water
5. Post-treating any residual stains
6. Grooming carpet for efficient drying and uniform appearance
7. Placing pads under furniture legs to protect the carpet while drying
8. Performing final inspection with you present to ensure you're completely satisfied.

Upholstery Cleaning

Keep your upholstered furniture looking its best

At home or at work, fabric furnishings can get heavy use and show soil and dirt quickly. ServiceMaster Clean professionals are experts at selecting the correct cleaning system for particular fabric types and soil conditions.

For all upholstery cleaning, our technicians use specially designed products, equipment and methods every step of the way, from initial vacuuming and spot treatment to shampooing, rinsing and water extraction to washing and polishing frames.

In the office, modular systems and furniture get the same care we devote to your sofas and chairs at home. ServiceMaster Clean provides a process that ensures the removal of soil while never risking damage to your investment.

Spot Removal Techniques

Remember that the best time to clean up most spots and spills is right after they occur.  Using the proper agent, follow the techniques below.  Be sure to pretest a small area to make sure that the fabric will not bleed or get damaged during treatment.

1. If liquid, blot up as much as possible with a clean cloth.

2. If the material is dry, loosen residue with the dull edge of a knife or spatula. Scrape or vacuum up as much of the residue as you can.

3. Dampen clean cloth with the proper cleaning agent for the particular kind of spot.

4. Blot area gently, working from the outer edge to the center of the spot.  Turn the cloth frequently so you are always using a clean area.

5. Repeat this process until the spot is removed or until you no longer have a transfer spot on your cloth.  Be careful not to get the carpet excessively wet.

6. Blot the spot with water.  Blot any excess moisture.

7. Align the carpet pile.  Protect the area from any traffic and allow to dry.

If ServiceMaster Clean is called to your home, be sure to notify them of areas that have already been treated.
