Hotel Carpet Cleaning Essentials


Hotels are your home away from home. Companies know this and do their best to meet customer needs. The best way they do this is through cleanliness. A top rated hotel company knows carpet cleaning is the best way to maintain the quality of the hotel.

Hotels receive a lot of foot traffic at all hours of the day. This means there is a large accumulation of dirt in the carpet. Entrance mats make a huge difference since they capture bulk amount of rain and dirt. They keep it from reaching the building extremities. Professional hotels should have interior and exterior entrance mats.

Most hotels use regular vacuuming on the carpets. This is often done late at night when there is less people or early in the morning. Vacuuming should be done slowly several times over each section of the carpet. This optimizes dirt uptake and prevents it from spreading to other areas of the hotel.

All carpets require professional carpet cleaning once a year. This means the carpet is washed using pressurized hot water extraction. This provides deep cleaning to the carpet and also renews carpet material. Dry cleaning methods can be used in between to absorb surface dirt.

After the Wedding Reception - What to Know for Cleaning Care


After all the wedding planning you may have forgotten about the clean up. If you've hosted at a venue they usually provide this service. However, if you've hosted at your home or at a relative's you probably should arrange cleaning services.

For regular cleaning most of the time it doesn't have to be immediate. The clean up can be done the next day. This usually includes sweeping, vacuuming, trash pickup and washing floors. If you need dishes done though it will probably be extra.

You may also need commercial services done as well. Guests could have made a mess on the carpets with food and drink. Beverage spills should be cleaned right away so that the carpet doesn't get permanent stains.

5 Ways Unprofessional Carpet Cleaning Can Cost You


For any service we want the best price possible. However, this can end up costing you in the long run. Here are common ways low priced carpet cleaning can cost you.

Re-cleaning
Improper carpet cleaning doesn't get the job done. It's common that you need to re-clean your carpets with a professional carpet cleaning service. So in the long run you will end up paying more to get the carpet cleaning done right.

Skipping Steps
Many unprofessional carpet cleaners skip essential steps. This includes small things such as vacuuming the carpet before hand to maximize dirt removal. The cleaner may also skip on the extraction process and leave the carpet susceptible to mold.

Resoiling
Improperly cleaned carpets will have carpet cleaning solutions left in the fiber. Without proper extraction the cleaning detergents remain and attract dirt. This causes rapid resoiling and your carpet will soon look horribly dirty.

Mould and Bacteria
Without proper carpet cleaning extraction too much moisture is left in the carpet. This impedes drying times and can potentially attract pets such as mold and bacteria.

Damage
Your carpet can be damaged by unprofessional carpet cleaners. Damages include bleaching, fading, bleeding and damage to the carpet fiber.

For all your carpet cleaning you need the professionals at Vivid Cleaning. We use eco-friendly carpet cleaning products, professional equipment and our company is IICRC certified.

Invisible Dirt -How Carpets Conceal Large Quantities of Dirt


Carpet cleaning should be done at least once a year. However many people skip this crucial cleaning since the carpet appears to look adequately clean. The problem is that on the surface carpets may look clean but underneath they are hiding a dirty secret.

If your carpet has a built in stain protector it will essentially prevent stains. It will allow your carpet to look pristine for a long time. This does not keep the dirt from settling at the base of the carpet. Dirt will roll off carpet fiber and sink to the base of the carpet. This dirt adds up along with hair and other debris.

To prevent rapid soiling it's essential that you vacuum the carpet 2-3 times a week. Slowly go over each section and use a brush roll setting to maximize dirt up take. This process helps keep the rest of your home clean and prevents allergies.

To give your carpet a deep clean you need a professional carpet cleaning service. A professional carpet cleaner will vacuum the carpet as part of the cleaning process. This is followed by spraying cleaning solution and water and finally extraction. This removes the dirt and water from the carpet to ensure faster drying times.

For all your carpet cleaning you need Vivid Cleaning. We clean carpet in Toronto, Vaughan, Markham, Woodbridge, North York, Thornhill, Etobicoke and the entire GTA.

Signs Your Carpet Should Be Replaced and Not Cleaned

Most of us think that carpets are indestructible and we can keep them forever. Most carpet will last long with proper maintenance. However, there are specific times were the carpet absolutely needs to be replaced. These are times when it's absolutely ruined or poses a hazard to your health. Here is a list of times your carpet absolutely needs to be replaced.

Flooding
After flooding you may or may not be able to save the carpet. It depends how long the carpet has been wet and how soaked the under pad is. If left wet too long mold and bacteria will start to grow.

Paint
If you drop a can of paint or even just a few droplets, there is no way to remove that. Paint is made to stay put on the wall as well as provide a protective coating. You may get some of it out while the paint is still wet. After it's dry there is no way to remove it without damaging the carpet.

Mold
Once mold has started growing in the carpet, there is no way to thoroughly remove it. Even if you clean the visible area it can grow again.

Car Grease
Exhaust, car oil and other car related products are next to impossible to remove. The oil based residue is tough to remove and isn't worth the cost of carpet cleaning. It's easier to remove the carpet.

For all your carpet cleaning needs you need the experts at Vivid Cleaning. We provide carpet cleaning to Toronto, Markham, Vaughan, Woodbridge, Etobicoke, Mississauga, Thornhill, Richmondhill and the GTA.

Hypoallergenic Dogs Breeds - Dogs That Won’t Give You Allergies

Dogs are great but often can cause allergy symptoms. What cause allergies is the fur undercoat that sheds during warm weather. Not all dogs have a fur undercoat and thankfully there are several dog breeds that won’t cause you allergy symptoms.

Afghan Hound
This dog breed is known for its long silky fur. This fur coat requires careful washing to prevent fur kinks and other tangles.

Bedlington Terrier
This is a small dog breed that gets its name from a town in London. They have the cute appearance of a small lamb due to their short curly fur.

Bichon Frise
This is another small dog breed that’s cute and fluffy. They make great lap dogs due to their size. The fur is a bit long and needs proper maintenance to keep it well groomed.

Chinese Crested
This breed of dog comes in hairless and full hair varieties. They hardly shed fur and don’t have an undercoat which makes them hypoallergenic.

It’s important to note that not all allergies are from dog fur. Some allergens are from shed skin and from the saliva. Also having a dog as a pet means extra maintenance for carpets and furniture. Only professional eco-friendly carpet cleaning will properly clean your carpet.
