More about my Speciality type of Carpet Cleaning:
I do not have a truck mounted carpet cleaning machine, which means we aren’t burning fossil fuels while we clean!
Our method is particularly ideal for carpets in High-rise construction, as there are no long hoses to run, however it's also very effective on all carpets, and most of my clients are seniors in houses, condo's and townhouses.
I specialize in something called "bonnet encapsulation" cleaning, which is a dryer method that's very portable, safe and very effective due to its gentle scrubbing action and high-tech dirt-lifting formula.
It’s also sometimes called VLM Carpet Cleaning, which means Very Low Moisture, and it’s also ideal for short commercial carpets! (it's also sometimes referred to as bonnet-cleaning - because the pads that pick up the dirt look sort of like an old-fashioned lady's bonnet!I)
I also have extractors and can bring a steam machine if we need one. I always use an extractor when I do stairs and for upholstery.
Also, my state-of-the-art commercial cleaning products are powerful yet gentle, safe, and environmentally friendly. Which really means they are People-friendly!
Are you OVERWHELMED? struggling with a big mess? maybe some health issues or neurodivergence are causing clutter problems?
Well, hey, that's one of my specialities too! I've been helping people in my life with this struggle most of my adult life and i have ZERO JUDGMENTS and ENDLESS COMPASSION! Everybody deserves a clean home!!
Want a consultation to discuss your situation? Most initial visits can be a short video visit, which I don't charge for, and we can decide together how you'd like to proceed, considering urgency, size of the mess, and budget - time, energy and money budgets will all be considered.
You can count on me to know our plan and not go over budget. You can also count on me to be realistic about what can and cannot get done in a certain amount of time.
Options are:
I do most of the sorting with clear instructions on what stays, what goes and what is a maybe or a decide later type of item. You can be involved or not, as you prefer. This is the medium level effort from me, so the price will reflect that. Currently $45/hour with a minimum of 3 hours per session.
You do most of the sorting, with me doing the hard cleaning like the bathroom or kitchen while you're sorting things somewhere else near by, and I provide encouragment (moral support aka body-doubling) and redirection if needed. This is the most work for me so it's the most expensive option. $60/hour with a 2 hour minimum.
You do most of the sorting, with me to keep you focussed, encouraged and redirected if needed. Works best for clothes or ornament sorting, that type of organizing. This is the least work for me, so it's the least expensive option, however it may also not get results as fast as you want or need. If you want me physically there helping, this option is $40/hour with a minimum of 3 hours per session. If you want me there by video, that's $35/hour, one hour minimum.
Or we can create a custom plan for you! I am HAPPY to HELP!
