"I had tried everything to get rid of pet stains on my carpeting. I wasn’t sure if anyone could get rid of them but I decided to give EnerGreen a try. They were courteous and professional and I was ecstatic to see the stains gone after they finished. I would recommend them without hesitation."

"My spouse and I have met up with several contractors, but most of them have been trying to sell, not help. A friend recommended Natural Stone Restoration. We finally settled, and it’s been a fantastic experience getting the Counter Tops renovated. The communication with Zura has been stellar and reassuring; we are glad we made this choice because our kitchen looks so amazing now. Zura was able to work within our budget while promising to deliver the best. We took his word for it, and we are happy we did. If I could give more stars, I would. We highly recommend this contractor."

"

I had used the services very regularly for about a year and then decided to quit.

While very pleased initially, as time went on there seemed to be suddenly be changes with different "friends" helping out and

the cleaning was not very thorough.  At least one did not appear to have a cleaning background.   Michelle is very

personable and friendly, but lacked a bit on follow through.

I really had hoped for a service that was more detail oriented, so we unfortunately did not turn out to be a good match.

"Chris came on board to complete the build of our new home part way through the build process. There were a lot of issues going on that pertained to the project manager that were quickly corrected as soon as Chris came on board. He is on top of everything and quickly remedies issues that arise. He was an absolute joy to work with and was able to get our house back on track to completion. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to do the work! Any new projects I have in the future would be through him! Thank you for making our dream house come true!"

Floor Polishers FAQs, answered by experts

After carpet removal, prepare for new flooring by assessing the subfloor. You will want to address any imperfections to create a smooth and level base for installation. Remember, proper subfloor preparation is crucial for optimal new flooring results. Consider repairing and replacing damaged areas for a stable foundation. For both wood and concrete subfloors, consider sanding to remove any debris or adhesives remaining thoroughly. 

Buffing will only remove scratches at the surface level of your flooring. You may also need to apply hardwood floor wax to restore the wax layer. To remove deeper scratches, you’ll need another floor repair method like sanding; however, if you sand the floor, you’ll also need to stain and seal it.

To properly maintain and care for hardwood floors without damaging the finish, establish a regular cleaning routine. Sweep with a broom or microfiber dust mop daily, or vacuum weekly, to remove dirt and debris that can scratch the surface; be sure to clean in tight corners and under furniture. For a deeper clean, use a damp mop with a cleaner specifically designed for hardwood floors, but avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive water, as this can damage the wood. You can further protect your floors by placing mats at entryways to catch dirt and moisture and putting felt pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches. For long-term care, refinish the floors as needed to keep them looking their best.

The answer to this question depends on how large the room is and how much experience you have stripping and waxing floors. It will take at least 24 hours to strip the floors, then you must allow time for drying, waxing, waiting for them to cure, and, finally, buffing them. Since you likely will not be working for the full 24 hours, it is safe to say that this is a two- or three-day job.

While every professional home cleaner will have their own preference, most will use a commercial floor cleaner specifically manufactured for laminate floors. They will also use a vacuum or microfiber cloth to remove loose grit before breaking out the mop. Some cleaners will also make a final pass with a dry and clean cloth to dry your laminate floors for a smooth shine.
