professional upholstery cleaning services in Orange County

So, you have a stain on your upholstered fabric? Where do you go from here?


What is a cleaning code?

There are several common fabric cleaning codes. Fortunately, they’re easy to remember:

S – Solvent clean (that is “dry-cleaning”)

W – Water clean

WS – Water or Solvent clean

X – No liquids, vacuum clean only

Truth is, you can clean about 80% of S-coded fabrics with a water-based cleaning system, if done carefully. The most common tool is water-extractor upholstery cleaner (sort of like a wet-vac with a spray). Dry cleaning machines are 10 times more expensive and are rarer.

What cleaner do I use?

Perhaps more important than the cleaning code is to use what’s appropriate for the staining material. You must use a cleaning solution that will clean the staining material. The basic chemical rule is “Likes dissolve likes.” There are two broad classes of solvents:

  • Polar solvents (e.g., Water-based). They are called polar because they have a positive side and a negative side on a molecular level. Use water-based cleaners for stains that are water-based:
    • Most foods
    • Body fluids (hair and skin oils, urine, vomit, blood, and feces)
    • General overall soiling from use
    • Some inks.

Various cleaners work by attracting and holding the stain particles, using enzymes to break them down, attacking them with acidity or alkalinity, adding or removing oxygen from the stain, or changing them chemically into something that is easy to remove.

  • Non-polar (e.g., hydrocarbon based). Examples of these are odorless mineral spirits, acetone, AFTA, Goof-Off, Pro-Gel and d-Limonene (citrus-oil-based) cleaners. You can use these sparingly with a Q-tip swab or clean cloth. Use these cleaners for stains that are hydrocarbon or petroleum based:
    • Tar
    • Grease
    • Shoe polish (wax)
    • Candle wax
    • Some inks
    • Lipstick

NOTE: Before using any cleaner, test on an inconspicuous spot for damage or color loss before attacking a stained area. Fabrics with a rubberized backing may be damaged by non-polar solvents. Put a bit of the cleaner on a clean towel or swab and rub and press against the fabric for several minutes and observe any color transfer or discoloration.

For spot stains you should circle the stain with solution and work your way inward to keep the stain from bleeding away.

Don’t remove the fabric from cushions when cleaning or you may never get it back on correctly if it shrinks or skews.

What are the most important factors of cleaning?

If you think about any cleaning you do, whether it’s your washing machine, your shower, or washing your car, there are four important factors, remembered as TACT.

  • Time – the amount of time that the cleaning solution is in contact with the stain. Usually the more the better.
  • Agitation – a little mechanical agitation, tamping, or rubbing will help break up most stains. Too much can start to abrade the fabric, though.
  • Chemical action – using the right solution and letting the chemicals do the work.
  • Temperature – most chemical reactions double in speed with every 18 degrees F (10 degrees C). You can also help reach the melting or plasticizing point of some of the staining material to aid in its removal.

For almost any stain, if there is debris on the surface scrape it up and dry vacuum before beginning any wet cleaning. Blot up liquid stains with a dry towel as soon as possible.

Where can I find cleaning solutions?

Most carpet cleaning supply houses carry a complete selection of cleaning solutions for upholstery as carpet cleaners often sideline into upholstery cleaning. If you live in a small town, there are mail order firms. Eighty percent of carpet is nylon, and the majority of the rest is olefin, so carpet cleaners don’t face the wide variety of fibers available in upholstery.

How do I identify a fabric’s fiber?

The best way is if you can determine from the manufacturer. Finished goods are required to list the inside contents of a piece, but not the covering. The best way is to do a fiber id burn test (see www.pacificcarpetcleaning.net ). In this, you observe the flame, odor and ash of burning a fiber. This is not foolproof, though, since many fabrics are combinations of two or more fibers. I also recommend a butane lighter as matches and candles have their own odors.

Fiber id, though, is not necessary if you know the cleaning code and color-fastness properties. It’s probably best left to testing labs.

What are some problem fabrics for cleaning?

  • 100% cotton – this fabric “stains easily and cleans with difficulty.” In addition, the darker colors such as reds and greens are prone to fading and color-bleed with water.Some color bleed with dry abrasion on a white towel or general use. Consumers have a hard time believing that something as durable as jean material makes a lousy upholstery fabric.
  • Haitian cotton – this is cotton that’s minimally processed, usually white or off-white with little brown specs (sort of like vanilla bean ice cream). The problem is, when wet, the lignin in the specs (the woody part of the cotton plant) bleed brown and turn the whole piece into a yellow-brown. Avoid excessive water, dry quickly, and avoid excessively high pH (alkaline). There are special cleaners for water-cleaning Haitian cotton.
  • Olefin – being a petrochemical, it loves petroleum and releases it with difficulty.

What are some problem stains for cleaning?

  • Blood – use hydrogen peroxide. Commercial version is “Stain Magic”
  • Ink – the longer ink sits, the more difficult it is to remove. Most inks are like paint that sets up and the resins and pigments bind. Ink stains also vary by color of ink and manufacturer. Some inks are water-based. Most are solvent based, so use a solvent cleaner or a special ink-removing cleaner.
  • Red food dye, found in red beverages, candy, some tomato products like catsup or spaghetti sauce. Red Relief is an excellent product to use for these, and about the only thing that works.
  • Organic dye stains such as juice or berry stains, blood, mustard, wine, etc. Stain Magic is a very good product for these.
  • Vomit, acne medicine, laundry bleach, etc. Sometimes, these will bleach the dye out of fabric. No cleaner will clean back lost color.
  • Rust – there are a number of specialized rust removing solutions, most of them are acid-based. I’ve had luck using white vinegar on very fresh rust stains.
  • Animal or vegetable oil (including food stains, hair or body oil) – use an alkaline cleaner to saponify (turn the grease into “soap” like the pioneers made lye soap)

DIY Tips For Cleaning Tile Floors, Orange County

Floors come in a myriad of choices, but tile remains an attractive choice among homeowners. Unlike hardwood floors, tile floors are durable, waterproof, easy to install and available in an array of styles. Most importantly, they don’t require as much maintenance as carpets do. However, if you want your tile floors looking like new for years, you should know how to clean them properly. Below are the best ways to clean tile floors, whether they are ceramic, vinyl or stone.

Clean Your Tile Floors Regularly

Don’t wait until your tile floors get really dirty, as you may want to avoid using strong chemicals that will degrade your tiles in the long run. Plus, who wants to spend hours kneeling on the floor just to scrub away stubborn stains? To prevent these problems, you should learn how to clean tile floors on a frequent basis. Cleaning tile floors routinely or even daily may sound tiresome. But, it’s not as hard as you think. You just need to follow these simple steps.

1. Sweep your tile floors daily with a fluffy dust mop or vacuum to remove loose dust and dirt. Remember, you should never use a straw broom to replace either the dust mop or vacuum because that will scratch your tiles.

2. Believe it or not, mopping the floor with warm water once a week will help your tiles stay nice and shiny. If you are looking to hire a cleaning pro to take care of your tile floors, you can see how much it will cost in your area through our house cleaning cost guide.

3. Dry the floor right after damp mopping to avoid new dirt from quickly setting in wet areas and becoming hard-to-remove grimes.

4. Wipe up spills, including water, immediately by using absorbent cloths. However, for those dirtier spills like pet accidents or dropped raw meat, you have to clean them with a cleanser or disinfectant. Since strong chemicals may dull your tiles, try to only spray the area where spills occurred.

5. Put a doormat both outside and inside your home to eliminate tracking mud or water on your tile floors. This step is especially important during rain and snow seasons.

How To Clean Tile Floors , Orange County

Apply Deep Cleaning Solutions From Time to Time

Does your tile floor look nasty no matter how often you mop? Try a stronger cleaning solution. These different deep-cleaning solutions will remove greasy residues and stains without damaging your tiles.

1. Mop the floor with a mix of ½ cup white vinegar and a gallon of warm water. The acidity in vinegar can work as a natural grease-remover that makes this approach especially useful for kitchens. You can also use ½ cup of plain rubbing alcohol as a substitute for vinegar.

2. Mix fresh water and dish detergent and mop it on the floor to remove hard grease.

3. Spot-clean stains with a mixture of half scouring powder and half warm water. Spread the mixture onto a stain by using a clean cloth and let it sit on the tile for 5-10 minutes. Then, scrub the area with a soft brush and thoroughly rinse the tile with warm water and a cloth. Repeat the process until you remove the stain.

Please note that acids like vinegar and some other cleaning products will erode natural stone tiles. Therefore, you should only use special pH neutral cleaners to safely clean your stone tile floors. Gentle dish soap, hydrogen peroxide, cornstarch and baking soda, for example, are good natural cleaning options.

Worried about cleaning your exquisite marble floor? Consider hiring a professional. The national average cost for tile & grout cleaning service is $401. See the specific cost in your area.

Don’t Forget Grout Cleaning

Never overlook the importance of tile grout, as bright grout will make your tile floors look great and new. Before you go with commercial cleaners, try to clean your grout with a mixture of baking soda and water. The steps are simple:

1. Saturate the dirty grout with the paste.

2. Let the paste sit for a while or even overnight, depending on how dirty your grout is.

3. Scrub the grout with an old toothbrush.

4. Wash the paste out with warm water.

If your grout doesn’t look as bright as you would like, you can use a non-toxic cleaner like oxygen bleach. Add water to the bleach powder based on the product’s instructions and rub the solution on the grout with the edge of a sponge. Repeat as necessary. Finally, rinse the floor with warm water to remove the residue.

Whether you decide to use baking soda or oxygen bleach, after you are done cleaning, you should apply a sealer to the grout, keeping the dirt away in the future.

Conclusion

Like other areas of the home, the best maintenance is always precautionary rather than reactionary. If you follow these steps and regularly clean your tile floors, they will look as good as new for years to come.

How To Handle Cleaning Carpet Stains, Orange County

How To Handle Cleaning Carpet Stains, Orange County

Cleaning carpet stains is an inevitable scenario for homeowners and business owners alike, though the severity and complexity of the problem may require professional intervention. An individual can usually handle innocuous residue that can plague flooring such as dirt and mud, so long as they use the proper detergents and dry the area properly. There are, however, many cases where certain types of situations present the need for a trained professional who understands the unique scenarios that can arise in this type of treatment.

Cleaning carpet stains that contain a great deal of moisture may seem like an easy job, however, it can be a much more serious problem. One of the greatest threats that water damage can pose is mold growth. Without a professional with the proper tools and identification techniques needed to spot the potential for mold growth, it’s normally not possible for an individual to handle the issue properly. Mold can cause serious health problems, not to mention the loss of the flooring itself that may eventually need replacing because of improper drying techniques. That is why investing in a professional service is the best bet when confronted with this type of problem.

Some of the most complex restoration jobs stem from an odorous culprit. Smoke and pet stains are among the most common, and they need a qualified professional who knows which types of detergents to use that won’t damage the flooring but will eliminate the odor. Cleaning carpet stains and odors from pets is difficult, and those who attempt this alone increase the risk of the stain or odor simply being masked on the surface-level. A trained technician will remove any harmful  odor sources during the process and if needed, and accurately choose the correct  replacement swatches to  repair patches of carpet if the damage is severe.

It is safe to say that not every spilled drink or muddy footprint requires professional mediation, but it’s important to know that many do. It is important to understand the risks that these events can cause if they aren’t treated properly, some of which can lead to serious diseases and illnesses from mold growth. Investigating the severity of a stain is best left to certified technicians who will know how to approach, treat, and ultimately prevent the stain from reappearing.

Travertine Cleaning & Polishing Services, Orange County

Travertine can be paste polished to achieve a high luster. If the customer so desires, a matte finish can also be preserved. Final step: apply penetrating sealer.

Travertine over time will develop holes. These holes can be filled with a color matching epoxy filler.

Pacific Carpet & Tile Cleaning can maintain any type of travertine tile. Travertine comes in various grades with the highest grade having the least amount of filler material in the tile itself. The more filler material in the travertine the more problems and holes will develop over time. That being the case, to stay on top of your travertine floor, your really you should have your travertine paste polished every 2 years, and sealed. Otherwise you will develop a lot of holes to be filled and the grout can become permanently stained. If this occurs, then you have to consider diamond grinding to get the wear and etching off the surface of the floor. Then you will still have to paste polish after you diamond grind the floor. As you can see, if you stay on top of your floor, you can probably stay away from the expense of having to ever diamond grind the floor. Sealer by the way, will only protect you against organic stains such as oil, water dirt, etc  There is no penetrating sealers on the market that will protect you against acid stains: Liquor, sodas, acid based protects, urine etc. All of those products will burn the floor in a matter seconds and will have to be diamond ground out to remove them.  So that being the case, if you spill you a coke or another acid based product on the floor or counter, you should wipe it up immediately.

Sealers in general only have about a 2 year life span. If your grout becomes extremely soiled I can steam clean your grout at 220 degrees at 2500 P.S.I.

Best Upholstery Cleaning Services in Orange County

#1 O.C’s Best Upholstery Cleaning Services in Orange County

Residents of Orange County, California! For any carpet and upholstery cleaning related task, you are welcome to contact Pacific Upholstery Cleaning.

For most people, buying upholstery is a time consuming process that entails making a string of decisions concerning issues such as color, fabric, and style. In addition, budgetary considerations also come into play. It makes sense that once a decision has been made, you want it to be the right one, and you want to keep the furniture in use as long as possible. The best way to ensure that your upholstered pieces service you for as long as possible is to take proper care of them. This means weekly brushing and vacuuming and deep cleaning once every two to three years.

Deep Cleaning

Deep cleaning upholstery is an essential element in upholstery care. For best results, upholstery should be deep cleaned at regular intervals, yet often this is not the case. Instead, sofas, loveseats, chairs, ottomans, and other upholstered pieces are left to accumulate the flotsam and jetsam or everyday life: dirt, dust, hair, fur, sloughed skin cells, pet dander, dust mites, food crumbs, body oils, etc. Vacuuming will remove some of the superficial residue, but a certain amount of pollutants inevitably penetrate through fibers to find their way to the base of the fabric. Overtime, this buildup will cause the fabric to lose its vibrancy, and can even cause unpleasant odors.

Steps in Upholstery Deep Cleaning Inspection

The first step that is taken by Pacific Upholstery Cleaning experts in upholstery deep cleaning is a thorough inspection. The purpose of this inspection is to determine upholstery fabric type so that the correct washing method will be used. In addition, the inspector identifies any areas that might require special treatment. Though professional upholstery cleaners prefer to use the extraction method, which is highly effective when it comes to spot removal, some stains may require pretreatment, or some other special treatment.

The next step by Pacific Upholstery Cleaning experts is to thoroughly vacuum every fiber – including the back, underside and pillows. When animals are present in a household, the cleaning crew of Pacific Upholstery Cleaning will often brush the fabric before they vacuum. These simple step helps loosen strands of hair or fur that have become entangled in fabric fibers. And the extra plus: we’re super animal friendly!

Upholstery cleaning is then carried out using the method most appropriate for the particular type of upholstery fabric. Options for upholstery fabrics cover an extensive range (cotton, wool, leather, plastic, vinyl, etc.). Some of these options respond will to the high heat, low moisture extraction method. Other fabrics, however, need more alternative treatments such as shampooing, dry cleaning or hand washing.

Extraction upholstery cleaning uses the pure cleaning power of steam to flush out dirt from fabric fibers and simultaneously whisk way all the moisture – and all the grime along with it – through watertight tubes to a holding tank. The most efficient machines are truck mounted machines, which keep all the heavy machinery out of your home. For smaller jobs, however, smaller machines may be used for similar results.

Individuals subjected to frequent allergy attacks may not know that planned visits from the carpet cleaning company significantly reduce the amount of bacteria and other allergens in their close environment.

With Pacific Upholstery Cleaning your home or place of business will be cleaned to perfection by chemical free carpet cleaning supplies and innovative upholstery cleaning machines.

Leave no room for dust or bacteria; embrace the smell of fresh indoor air. Call us to schedule an appointment.

Why Steam Cleaning Carpet Is More Sanitary? Orange County

Steam cleaning carpet is becoming a leading alternative to the traditional shampoo method. As indicated by the EPA, the typical person can be found inside of their home or office space at least 90 percent of their time. Therefore it is imperative that harmful pollutants are removed regularly. While there are numerous techniques to utilize when removing dirt and allergens, they don’t always leave the same results. There are many benefits to the flooring and the occupants when hot water and steam are employed.

With as many as one hundred times more pollutants found indoors compared to outside, flooring fibers must be cleaned often. The usual vacuuming and spot cleaning is a necessary step in prolonging the life of the carpet, but such methods can only remove debris at the surface. Performing a deeper treatment approach will remove the dirt, pet hair, dust mites, and other debris that commonly work their way down further or are dug into the fibers themselves. While everyone tracks these unwanted contaminants indoors, kids and pets can greatly increase the volume of incoming pollutants. Over time a build-up of dust and grime can occur, so it is important to remove this build-up to preserve the flooring’s appearance and protect the health of those within the space.

Shampoo treatments have been utilized for many years. The process produces a substantial volume of foam in order to break up the dirt and other unwanted particles that have become stuck to the fiber strands over time. The lubricating texture of the shampoo minimizes any damage to the fibers that can occur from the equipment’s large brushes. This method is rather quick and can be successful when small stains and high traffic areas need to be addressed.

On the other hand, steam cleaning carpet utilizes equipment that shoots hot water into the fibers to remove the debris build-up. This heated application  helps to reduce any bacteria, germs, mites and other toxins that are present. The level of moisture applied can be easily controlled depending upon the surface that is worked upon in order to not damage the underlying material. The excess water along with the dislodged dirt is then eliminated utilizing the suction component of the equipment. The depth with which this method treats not only  reduces harmful allergens, it will greatly improve the overall appearance and lifespan of the carpeting as well. Unlike the yellowing that can result from  many brighteners, there is  little chance of discoloration when hot water and steam are employed. This technique typically dries rather quickly, whereas the nature of some  water-based shampoo necessitates longer drying time. Re-soiling is minimized as well when the steamed material is thoroughly dried prior to use.

The chemicals often utilized to brighten up all surfaces can negatively impact people and pets, especially those with allergies and other sensitivities. A key benefit to steam cleaning carpet is the minimization of chemicals present during the process. In addition, there is  less chance of harmful residues contaminating the indoor environment. The air can remain healthy and clean for those within the space.

While such methods can be carried out by the home owner, a certified technician trained and experienced in such practices and with powerful professional equipment can produce better results. Those that are approved by the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration have and continue to meet the Institutes continuing education requirements. When hiring a certified technician, clients can rest assure their flooring is in the hands of a reputable professional.

Why Steam Cleaning Carpet Is More Sanitary? Orange County

Steam cleaning carpet is becoming a leading alternative to the traditional shampoo method. As indicated by the EPA, the typical person can be found inside of their home or office space at least 90 percent of their time. Therefore it is imperative that harmful pollutants are removed regularly. While there are numerous techniques to utilize when removing dirt and allergens, they don’t always leave the same results. There are many benefits to the flooring and the occupants when hot water and steam are employed.

Professional Area Rug Cleaning, Orange County

Professional Area Rug Cleaning, Orange County
Sometimes vacuuming just is not enough to get the job done, and the assistance of a rug cleaning specialist is necessary. Carpet can muffle sound, prevent slipping and collect the soil and debris that would otherwise get tracked through the house. Maintaining its durability through thorough tidying is a way to ensure long lasting usefulness.

Finding someone reliable to perform a professional cleaning is not difficult when one knows what to look for. When searching for a reputable business to trust, it is important to look for one that has been operating for a number of years. This is not to say that a new business is incapable of providing quality work, but someone with a history in the field is far more likely to have the necessary skills. Obtaining information on a business that has been around for years will be easier, because they’ve had the opportunity to be critiqued by more customers. Online recommendations are helpful when deciding on a rug cleaning service, because they provide proof of excellent customer service and a job that has been satisfactorily done. While not necessary, picking a business that specializes in more than cleaning has its benefits. A company that is well versed in restoration and repair has a clear idea of how the rug should look, as well as how it is made, and all of that knowledge can be applied when inspecting and treating it. A professional business is also more likely to have the machines, soap solutions and techniques that result in a complete laundering.

A professional rug cleaning serves the purpose of removing stains, dirt, odors and allergens. There are a few different methods of achieving this, but the most common is composed of a few steps. First, remove items that are small and fragile from pieces of furniture that will need to be moved. A crew will do all the heavy lifting, but can operate more quickly and efficiently without clutter. A pre-inspection will reveal if there are any permanent stains and allow the employees to determine rug construction and materials. Jute, a natural fiber that used to be employed as a backing is known to shrink when wet, so an inspection is an important part of the process. A thorough vacuuming of the area will then be done to remove debris. Afterwards, a pre-spray and spot treatment will be applied before a machine-mounted hot water extraction is performed.  The hot water extraction sprays water that has its heat and pressure carefully regulated to prevent floor coverings from getting sopping wet. This method flushes the carpet with a diluted cleaning agent that removes bonded dirt and grit. The hot water extraction machine sucks up the water immediately after spraying it, and this is performed front to back. Afterwards, there is a post-spot treatment to tend to any trouble spots. Then the floor covering is raked to encourage faster drying and to be more aesthetically pleasing.

A rug cleaning that will restore floor coverings to their former softness and vibrance is not a do-it-yourself task, but a job for a professional. Only through hiring a professional can the best, most effective and safest rug cleaning solutions and methods be guaranteed.
