Carpet Cleaning Specialists Getting the Attention of Some Big Names in ... - Emailwire (press release)

<div readability="57.545296772">(EMAILWIRE.COM, June 30, 2011 ) Marietta, Ga -- Platinum Carpet Systems, an Atlanta based carpet cleaning company, have been getting a lot of attention for their superior services that customers are calling: "The most reliable and professional carpet cleaning company in Marietta Ga." When it comes to carpet cleaning almost every company jumps at the opportunity to call themselves "the best of the best." It is a claim that is made on virtually every carpet cleaning website in existence, but when it comes to the feedback of their customers, very few can carry that claim over to their testimonials. Platinum Carpet Systems separates themselves from the competition by boasting an exemplary record of customer satisfaction. Being IICRC certified, their attention to detail is reminiscent of services from the past- where customer satisfaction was a much bigger priority than simply generating profits.Willie and his team start every job with a thorough explanation of the necessary procedures as well as the associated costs. "Every great carpet cleaning experience starts with a proper pre-inspection. Our service technician will inspect your particular areas of concern as well as noting carpet construction and soiling conditions. He will also advise you of any possible permanent staining," says the website. They then move all the home's furniture (which most carpet cleaning companies do not bother doing) , pre-spray and pre-spot the carpeting (which most Marietta Ga carpet cleaning companies charge extra for), extract & rinse, and then follow up with a dry stroke. The final technique is one of the most common ways other Marietta Ga Carpet Cleaning services cut corners on their service: "If your carpet cleaner leaves a room full of pine tree shaped strokes or 'W' looking strokes, he has given you what's known in the industry as a "blow out" job. Your carpets will still look dirty and will take days and days to dry. This can lead to mildew and mold."Platinum Carpet Systems also gives their clients a 100% money back guarantee and the customer only pays after a thorough walk-through of the serviced area. They then follow up with the client several days later to make sure that the job was completed to satisfaction. With that level of customer service it is no wonder that Platinum Carpet Systems have become one of the most trusted and sought after carpet cleaning services in Marietta Ga. They boast some big-name clients throughout all of Georgia, and they have become the go-to company for Marietta's higher end clientele. It's with this simple commitment to providing a superior product that has earned Platinum Carpet Systems a reputation as being one of the most reliable carpet cleaning companies in Marietta Ga.

<div readability="84.9720184732"> I can decide whether or not to buy a pair of shoes the second I see them. I knew in a heartbeat which color car I wanted (horizon blue metallic). It takes me no time at all to choose a movie to rent or an entrée to order. If you ask for my preference, you'll very seldom hear me say, "I don't know." Yet it took me five full weeks to pick out a carpet for my home office. I worried and wrung my hands and researched and visited the carpet store about three times a week for more than a month. Eventually, the salesmen started scattering when they saw me coming; I was the woman who was going to look, take up their time, ask a million questions—but never buy. I eventually did buy a lovely wall-to-wall Berber carpet in an neutral, oatmealy shade with flecks of green and beige. That was 13 years ago. Even though it has held up well, it's really showing its age lately. But I don't have enough courage to go through the torture of picking out a replacement. So last week I did something I've never done before: I called a professional carpet cleaning service to come over and take a stab at reviving the limp pile, removing the many cat-accident stains, restoring the color and appearance, and refreshing the look and feel and smell. And now, you'd never know that carpet is 13 years old. It's not that I never cleaned the carpet in all this time. I dragged home one of those rent-a-steamers from Giant every couple of years, but I suspect I mostly dumped water onto the rug without extracting much of the embedded grime and cat hair. I also vacuum it every week or so and spot-clean every time my sweet little Whiskers snacks on the silk flowers I keep on the coffee table and then spits them up all over the floor. But nothing has ever given my carpet a facelift like the guys from Stanley Steemer who spent more than an hour working their deep-clean (pet-safe) chemicals into the weave and extracting all things yucky with their super-suction hoses. So I've decided to keep my Berber forever, and call in the carpet cavalry every year to clean up after kitty and me. If you're a new-carpet wimp like I am, you might benefit from a few things I learned during my carpet-cleaning epiphany: <ul><li>Carpet manufacturers recommend that you get a pro to clean the floor covering every six months (not once every 13 years!). Carpets catch an awful lot of dirt, pollutants and allergens, so you can't keep it too clean.</li> <li>Vacuuming once a week isn't nearly enough. It turns out that vacuuming several times a week is the best way to keep dust, dirt and oils from settling into a carpet.</li> <li>It seems like vacuuming and steam-cleaning would weaken the carpet, but regular maintenance can actually lengthen its life. Letting dirt particles set in the carpet is like rubbing sandpaper on the fibers, causing premature aging.</li> <li>Rubbing a stain to remove it can force the grime deeper into the carpet, making it hard for even the pros to remove. Their advice: blot. </li> <li>Your vacuum cleaner can make your indoor air dirtier if it blows the dirt and dust around rather than trapping it inside its own container. The solution: Invest in a vacuum with a sealed HEPA filter, which is designed to remove 99.97 percent of dust, dander and other allergens as they pass through it.</li> <li>If you have cats like I do, consider trading your old vacuum cleaner for a "pet lover's" model that is designed to pick up pet hair and dander and to remove pet messes from carpets, stairs and upholstery.</li> </ul>And maybe you, too, can spare yourself from the agony that is carpet shopping—at least for a few more years.

Green Living: Earth-Friendly Cleaners

Households all across the nation use an arsenal of cleaning products to keep their homes in good working order.

With the prevalence of food-borne illness on the rise, such as E. coli and Salmonella, a clean home is more important than ever.

The latest home or commercial real estate news Sample

The question is posed then as to whether or not there are green options for cleaning supplies. Do they carry the same punch?

Many of today's most popular brands are full of harmful chemicals. On our own the contribution may seem minimal. Yet, as each household sends these chemicals down the drain, the impact on the environment increases exponentially. This harsh impact has many green activists searching for ways to use earth-friendly cleaners.

Here are ways that you can take your cleaning "green".

First, be sure to only buy products that fully disclose their ingredients. Some brands list exactly what is in their products right on the package. Choose these over brands with lists of chemicals no one can pronounce.

Next, buy products that are free of dyes and perfumes. You may be tempted to buy fabric softener or laundry detergent that is scented like the “lavender fields of France,” but dyes and perfumes are polluting our waters every day. Clean laundry smells just as good as perfumed laundry.

The next consideration is botanical disinfecting agents. Essential oils, the inner workings of plants and flowers, have been proving their worth.

Take thymol, for example. It is produced by the thyme plant and works wonders for disinfecting.

The Seventh Generation brand is popular and easily found in stores across the nation. They have found that their natural disinfecting cleaner, “Kills over 99.99% of household germs, specifically: Inﬂuenza A viruses including H1N1, Rhinovirus (type 37, the Common Cold virus), Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella enterica, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa on hard, nonporous surfaces.”

And finally, think about using homemade cleaners. Vinegar is a tried and true cleaning favorite. It is great for cleaning windows, spills on carpets, working on home odors, removing toilet stains, and the list goes on and on.

That's why some people call it the “miracle cleaner”.

No, natural cleaners are not the ultimate substitute for bleach and other tough cleaners. There are times when it is necessary to use these. However, there are plenty more times in our daily lives that gentler, more natural cleaners are the perfect fit.
