Do you tip a self-employed cleaner?

• <div><p>Whether your carpet cleaner is self-employed or not doesn’t need to play a major factor in tipping. Some larger cleaning companies prefer you don’t tip their employees, but if the cleaner is self-employed that isn’t a concern. Tipping isn’t required for this service, so feel free to use it as an appreciation for their service and hard work.</p></div>

Where does the dirt go when you steam clean?

• <div><p>Unless you have a steam cleaner with an extractor (which is what most professionals use), a steam cleaner only breaks up all the dirt and grime stuck to your flooring and doesn’t actually remove the dirt. After a steam clean, the key to getting rid of dirt and grime is going back over it with a vacuum, mop, or microfiber cloth. </p></div>

Q: Do you tip a self-employed cleaner?

Q: How long does it take to clean smoke damage?

• <div><p>It can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks to clean smoke damage, depending mostly on the extent of the damage and the method your professional uses. Ozone smoke restoration is a popular option that takes just 24 to 48 hours, but you may need multiple treatments to remove odors. For major house fires, it might be a better option to replace smoke-damaged materials, which could take six to 12 months.</p></div>

Q: What does it mean if a couch feels crusty after cleaning it?

• <div><p>If your usually super soft couch feels crusty and rough after cleaning, it could be that you haven&rsquo;t removed the cleaning product properly, you used too much, or you applied the wrong type. Always check the couch tags to select the right cleaning product, read application instructions carefully, and test on an inconspicuous corner. For fabrics such as microfiber, you can soften and fluff crusty fibers using a soft-bristled brush.</p></div>

Q: How often should I have my furniture cleaned?

• <div><p>The frequency of furniture cleanings is dependent on the amount of use that they get. Generally, having your furniture cleaned every <b>12 to 18 months</b> is best. </p><p>If you have pets or a bustling household, you might want to consider having your furniture professionally cleaned every <b>six to 12 months</b>. Conversely, if your furniture only gets a little use, a more extended time, like every <b>24 months,</b> might make more sense.</p></div>

We had just put our home up for sale and needed to get all of our carpets shampooed. We have 2 kids ages 4 and 1 who have done a lot of damage to them with spilling drinks, food and especially vomit. Part of our living room carpet smelled very bad from vomit. Once he was done, our carpets...

2 workers moved most furniture except very heavy pieces (piano, china buffet, etc.) which I thought were not necessary to move. Piano had just been tuned and I preferred not to move it in any case and risk "un-tuning" it. We only had to move small display items on side tables, display cases,...

I am so happy I used A&R cleaning. I recently bought a large house and the previous owner owned a cat. I wanted a service to come in and remove all the cat hair from the walls and carpet before I moved in. It was so bad, I couldn't stand in the house for more than 15 minutes before I started...
