Carpet cleaning in Fordham for big family apartments, student shares near the university and vacant units between leases.
Fordham apartments get a lot of foot traffic. In a family home there may be five or six people coming in from school, work and Fordham Road every day, and in a student share near the campus the carpet hosts study groups, late dinners and a few spilled drinks.
Most of the carpet here is in bedrooms and halls, and some older units still have it in the living room. It is usually a cut-pile nylon or polyester, which cleans up well when the oily street soil is broken down first.
We shift the furniture ourselves, so there is no need to clear the room before the crew arrives.
Shoes that walk along Fordham Road and down into the subway pick up grease, brake dust and a fine black grit. That dirt is oily, and it binds to synthetic fibers. Our pre-spray is made to loosen it, and we give it time to work before the extraction starts.
Once the soil is loose, the carpet is cleaned with a hot-water extraction machine. The technician works in overlapping passes and finishes with a dry pass to pull out as much water as possible.
Spots get individual care. Coffee, soda, food, ink from a school pen and the occasional nail polish each need a different spotter. Tell us what caused a stain if you know, because it helps us pick the right one.
In the Grand Concourse buildings, carpet in the sunken living rooms tends to collect dust along the step edge. We clean that edge by hand so the line where the floor drops looks as clean as the middle of the room.
Families with toddlers and pets ask about safety. Everything we use is non-toxic and eco-safe, and once the carpet is dry, kids and animals can go right back on it.
For landlords, we clean vacant apartments with no furniture to move, which makes the job quick. We can often book the day after a tenant moves out.
Drying usually takes a few hours to an afternoon. In winter the steam heat helps; in summer, a fan in the doorway makes a big difference.
