It's been a while.

Thank you loyal customers. Things have been very busy this season. Business developments include addition of water extraction, giving you more choices based on your carpet cleaning needs. I've been blessed with some great employees. Some working in your homes. Some in the offices we care for. All wonderful people. My son, Ethan, worked for a local plumbing company last year. This year he decided to come back to the family business.(He mentioned something about better pay.) You might see him at his second job in the Trig's Minocqua Produce Section. He's worked with me, with the exception of last year, for 5 years. It's good to have him back.

One Tool Mentality and $30.00 in Your Pocket.

In 1966 Abraham Maslow wrote, "I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail." In the thinking of most carpet cleaners, it's sounds something like this:

"All I know, all I have ever done, and all I have is a truck mounted hot water extraction unit, so every carpet cleaning job is perfectly suited for my equipment." (If your brain didn't short circuit just a bit when you read this you should read it again.)

Sure, a truck mounted hot water extraction unit IS the best choice sometimes. (And we will tell you so if that is what we think when we see your carpets.) However, reality is, you, the customer, have many choices when it comes to carpet cleaning. That's why we were the first company in the Minocqua area, and still the only local company, to offer Very Low Moisture carpet cleaning using oscillating pad en capping extraction. Decently clean carpets that stay clean longer and dry in less than 60 minutes. Our customer love this option and we have built a successful and growing business around the benefits. Now....how about another innovation?

Introducing High Flow Extraction and the Steamin Demon.
(And More Information Coming to Our Web Site Soon!)

 

Welcome to 21 Century carpet cleaning with the Steamin Demon. The Steamin Demon is the only portable carpet extractor specifically endorsed in writing by Shaw Industries, the worlds largest carpet manufacturer. Shaw Industries has tested the Steamin Demon for over 10 years. The Steamin Demon has also won the prestigious Gold Seal of Approval for Superior Deep Cleaning Systems from the Carpet and Rug Institute, an independent evaluator of carpet cleaning methods and tools. You can even watch a head to head comparison between a Steamin Demon and a truck mount unit operated by a carpet cleaning business owner with many years of experience.

The high flow extraction of the Steamin Demon uses 3 to 4 times the water volume of most truck mount units. HOWEVER, carpets dry in half the time when compared to carpet cleaned with old fashioned options. You, the customer, have told us that you really appreciate minimized dry times. So, when I began to research water extraction I kept this in mind. Water extraction with the Steamin Demon is the best of both worlds. Full on water flush of carpets when needed, but half the dry time of truck mounted systems; less than four hours.

It's a small machine, but small like a high end Apple Computer. Well thought out with a lot packed into it.  (We were a little skeptical at first. That's why I looked at our options for water extraction for over a year.) During our first times out with the new unit we were amazed to see the clean water return through the viewing window as chocolate-milk colored water when cleaning carpets most people thought were "a little dirty."

Still mentally stuck on the truck? Then how about this? If you schedule carpet cleaning services DURING THE MONTH OF JULY and tell us you read about our new methods on the this blog we will knock $30.00 off your invoice for carpet cleaning. That's like a free room, or free stain guard application, or a free set of stairs. Oh, then there is our published guarantee, "If you are not completely satisfied with every aspect of your experience with us you owe us nothing." And we will even give you $30.00 for your trouble. Try us. You will like us. Either way, you keep $30.00 in your pocket.


You get better carpet cleaning. You get faster dry times. You get to keep $30.00. Call today to schedule services because July dates are beginning to fill (715-892-4290).

The Power of the Local Dollar

 

 Main stream media like TIME BUSINESS  and more alternative information outlets like Sustainable Connections agree about the high impact of shopping locally. Now, I know we all have what I call a "local thresh hold." It represents the dollar commitment you are willing to pay above non-local sources to obtain services and goods that you want in an effort to support your local community. It also considers what you call local. In our lightly populated area, I figure my "local" economy is about 60 miles across. Your "local thresh hold" causes you to support local businesses, but only so far. At some point everyone says, "I just won't pay THAT much more to support a local business." Local thresh hold is different for everyone.


Here is the bottom line; when you shop local $0.68 of every dollar stays in your community. So decide what your personal "local thresh hold" is and then start fixing the local economy. Support businesses that directly and indirectly keep your money local.

Where Did All The Pollen Go?

 

On your windows, all over your upholstered furniture, and in your carpet. While there is something blooming all the time, we are now past the worst part of the pollen season. Many air borne pollens are sticky. Just look at your windows after the pine trees bloom and you will see what I'm talking about. Your carpets act as natural air filters. So does your upholstered furniture. Now is a great time to clean up the mess. Call today to get the allergens out of your life.

Until next time, happy cleaning
