Owner/operator - established in 1989. Carpet & upholstery deep steam cleaning. Serving Mililani and surrounding areas, Kapolei & Ewa Beach (Oahu, HI). Military discount. Use a van mounted, high pressure, hot water injection/extraction system - best method for removing soil & stains. Other services: stain & spot removal, area rug cleaning, carpet & upholstery protection, and pet odor & stain removal. See a professional carpet cleaning machine and upholstery cleaning tool in action on our website at rainbowprohawaii.com. Customers almost always comment on the difference in the equipment used and the overall service provided. But don't take our word for it, read our reviews on Angie's List, HomeAdvisor, Yelp, and Goggle. Receipt provided to show carpets were professionally cleaned by a licensed, fully insured business.

"It went super well. Jerry arrived before time, which was good. He and his partner deep cleaned the carpet in my apartment: living room, two bedrooms and a hallway. There was a history of cat barf throughout the apartment that I had attempted to clean with standard carpet spot cleaners. They gave me advice on what products I should avoid as they tend to discolour the carpet. I also was reassured that, despite the barf-o-rama, my carpet was in pretty good condition. This was a deeper cleaning (steam) than other cleaners I have hired before. Although it has taken longer to dry, I can see the incredible difference 24 hrs. later. The cats can too...I think. >ºº<"

We are a IICRC certified firm. Since 2010 we provide Islandwide service, We have 5 employees total, For payments we accept check,cash and credit cards, We service the entire island of Kauai.

"When a tenant came down with asthma shortly after moving into her new rental home a contractor’s assessment was the possibility of black mold buildup from a leaking bathroom pipe. Opening up the wall and area around the leak revealed the worst case scenario. Once black mold was discovered, research pointed the way to one of the few licensed professional mold remediation companies on Kauai. Owner Gabe Prieto quickly took charge. His certified technicians dismantled the bathroom, walls were opened up and shower surround removed revealing the shower had also been leaking requiring water remediation. Black mold was removed, walls treated, the bathroom sealed off with heater and fan going nonstop completely drying the area for days. During this time Gabe set the landlord’s mind at ease by testing for moisture in the entire home to assure it was mold free. At the onset the tenant had to be displaced and an insurance claim was filed. Rather than hire a contractor for renovation, the landlord was relieved that Gabe’s company is also certified in restoration able to provide warrantees on his contractors’ work. It was reassuring that he had years of experience working with the landlord’s insurance adjuster. Together they worked out the invoice numbers qualifying the landlord for coverage. He personally took over arranging for replacement and delivery of damaged bathroom items. The bathroom was transformed to an even more immaculate, aesthetically pleasing space than before. Most importantly the landlord is grateful the tenant is now asthma free. Kauai residents are fortunate in this high humidity and moist sub tropical climate to have the best of the best in protection from mold and water damage with Kauai Restoration."

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

Homeowners insurance does not cover DIY mistakes, so tread lightly if you plan to tackle your own home repairs or renovations. If you cause damage to your home while attempting repairs or renovations yourself, the cost of fixing the damage is often considered your responsibility. Most policies only cover damage caused by covered perils like fire, theft, or weather—not by homeowner errors.

It depends. For new ovens, it’s best to run a few empty cycles to prepare the oven for use and to keep any manufacturing byproducts from entering your food. But if your oven is smoking due to a few burnt pieces of old food, then it probably won’t hurt to eat it. If there’s a lot of smoke, then your food probably won’t taste good, even if it might not be harmful to consume.

On average, you should expect the fire damage restoration process to take two weeks, but the timeline can vary widely depending on the extent of the damage and the type of fire damage you have. Minor cooking fires that you’re able to extinguish yourself may only take a day or two to clean soot and remove smoke odors, while restoring an entire section of a home or fixing structural damage after a major house fire can take six to 12 months. Ask your professional for a more accurate timeline for your specific project.

Living in a house with smoke damage could be safe on a temporary basis, but it depends on the severity and type of smoke damage. If you have major smoke damage or soot present from a fire, you should relocate to keep you and your family safe. Breathing in soot can cause respiratory issues, and it can contain carcinogens, so move out until you get professional remediation done. Your insurance company may cover the cost for alternative housing while your professional works.

Yes, most homeowner’s insurance companies cover smoke damage if it stems from a covered issue, like a house fire or a wildfire. If you’re unsure, you can read through your policy or call your provider immediately after the event to see if the damage is covered. Make sure to document all of the damage, including damage to furniture and other items, when you file an insurance claim so you can be properly compensated.
