"They did an amazing job. They were responsive, professional and thorough. I will definitely be using them again. Bathroom deep clean and reglaze (2 bathrooms)"
"Marvin & crew did a great job cleaning film off of our newly installed Vinyl Plank floors due to improper cleaning by installer. Great communication & worked around our schedule. Hard to find someone who would make the long trip to our rural location. Hopefully will not need them again, but will call if we do."
"Reggie and Ashley are rock stars! It's always rewarding coming home after having them clean my house, very detail oriented! Being pregnant, it's not always easy to get the bathrooms and floors cleaned well so it's a huge treat (seriously think baby shower gifts... ) to not have to do it! They didn't miss a thing. When they say "top to bottom deluxe cleaning", they mean TOP TO BOTTOM! They did another wonderful job today. I have been using All Shine for over 4 months now, and I still very impressed. Thank you for the amazing work! They gave me a quote for $155 every other week and $310 for a deep cleaning."
"A Professional indeed, punctual and did a excellent job on the stubborn stains. When ever I need carpet cleaning service in the future he is the one. Thank you Morris. for a job well done!!!! B. Young"
"Not only did they show up on time, but they also work quickly and do a thorough job even getting to the hard to reach places and places you donâ t see."
"It was excellent. They were clean. They were very detailed and organized. Everything was completed with the timeframe I needed. They arrived on time and got it done on time."
"I was pleased. Because my house is huge, I have 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, including the $176, it came to $300. They did a good job.
Once we worked out a schedule, they came, it was 2 people, normally she said she has three but one of them was sick. I mean they really worked, they did an excellent job! And then, they hadn't quite finished up at the end of that day, so one more came out the next day and spent another whole day. I could not complain. In fact they're coming tomorrow.
For what they had to do, I would say a B+ for price, no, make that an A.
Cleaning floors is a relatively easy DIY job, but paying for a professional cleaning service is worthwhile if you don’t have the time to dedicate to cleaning or if you have particularly dirty floors, deep-set stains, or wooden floors that you might damage during the cleaning process. A professional house cleaner will have the tools and experience necessary to remove dirt, pet hair, debris, and even stains and discoloration from your floors without damaging them. The service is also relatively affordable, making it a great investment if you don’t have the time or tools to do it yourself.
Sweep daily, use appropriate cleaners, and avoid abrasive tools to maintain the shine.
You can use dish soap mixed with warm water to clean just about any type of flooring, and while vinegar is a great addition to some floor cleaners, it’s not a good idea to use it on wood flooring or engineered wood flooring. Vinegar is very acidic, and it can gradually eat away at the protective finish on wood floors. If you’re cleaning laminate, tile, concrete, or vinyl floors, feel free to use vinegar and water in a 1-to-1 ratio with a few drops of dish soap. For wood floors, substitute the vinegar for olive oil.
Most DIY floor cleaners don’t require rinsing, but you’ll want to make sure you don’t add too much dish soap or oil to the cleaner to avoid having to rinse it after cleaning. For non-wood floors, mix 8 parts warm water, 1 part vinegar, and 1 part baking soda with a few drops of dish soap. For wood floors, use olive oil in that same mixture instead of the vinegar. You can let these solutions air-dry after cleaning your floors with them, although you should manually dry your floors if they aren’t waterproof.
Before starting on a full refinishing project, determine if your floors need to be completely sanded down to the bare wood or if the damage is shallow and mostly cosmetic. Deep scratches and gouges will require you to rough sand using a drum sander or belt sander, but small surface scratches or floors that have only lost their luster don’t need a complete overhaul. Instead, you can skip the rough sanding step and sand-screen the old finish with a buffer, removing only the top layer of polyurethane.
