A complete refinishing may be necessary
National Cleaning Specialist of Tampa Bay recommends if areas of your floor have been worn down to the bare wood, if the floor has deep stains or color differences in the wood, if there’s chipping or peeling, or if your floor cannot be re coated due to factors discussed above, you’ll have to do a complete refinish.
If these signs are not readily apparent,you can use this simple test to determine what care your floors need:
Take this simple test
Find a high traffic area where the finish is likely to be the most worn, and pour a tablespoon of water onto the floor.
If the water beads up and you can wipe it without a trace, the finish is still working and you don’t need to do anything just yet.
If the water slowly soaks into the wood floor, creating a moderately darkish spot, the floor is partially worn. You may be able to get away with a recoating. Consult your wood flooring contractor for the best course of action.
If the water immediately disappears into the wood leaving an obvious dark spot, it’s time to refinish the floor.
For routine cleaning of wood floors by sweeping and vacuuming along with use of Squeaky Cleaner will maintain the floor’s original appearance.

Carpet Cleaning: How to Select a Professional Carpet Cleaning Firm
If your carpet still looks dirty and dingy after vacuuming then it may be time to have your carpets professionally deep cleaned. Hiring a cleaning firm can be difficult and costly if you don’t know what questions to ask.
When it’s time to hire a carpet cleaning company, asking these questions will help you choose a professional, experienced and reputable company.
- How long has your company been in business? This speaks volumes about a company’s experience and reputation.
- How long has the technician you plan on sending to my house been with the company? This will also tell you about the experience of the technician
- What kind of training or certifications do you provide your cleaning crews before they are allowed to enter customer’s homes? Most reputable companies will require their technicians to obtain certifications.
- Do you vacuum the carpet before you clean? Most soil in carpet is insoluble which means water or solvents can’t break them down. The best way to remove this type of soiling is by dry vacuuming
- Do you Pre- spray the carpet before you clean? This helps break down the high traffic areas and spots before they clean the carpets.
- Does your cleaning process include spotting for any stubborn stains? If this is not included they may charge additional fees for this service.
- How long will it take my carpets to dry? This is important because most professional cleaning should only take 6- 8 hours to dry.
By asking these important questions you will be able to tell what kind of experience and reputation the company has and what type of cleaning you can expect. If the company employs these steps in the cleaning process you can expect to have a very clean carpet without any surprises.

Homemade Pet Odor Removal
The best homemade pet odor removal is prevention through good cleaning practices. However, there are some natural homemade pet odor removal procedure when necessary.
Hydrogen Peroxide is one of the best homemade pet odor removal solutions. Depending on the surface or material that you are cleaning, you can use the standard 3% peroxide solution as your new homemade pet odor removal. Or if you are moping a floor, you may want to consider using 1 cup a high mix (35%) with 1 gallon of hot water.
Using H2o2 as a homemade pet odor removal is a great choice because of its disinfectant, anti-bacterial, anti-mold and anti-mildew properties. Secondly, it’s a homemade pet odor removal solution that is non-toxic to people, plants and of course, household pets.
Other common household products that can be used as a homemade pet odor removal solution is dishwashing detergent and vinegar. You can mix a quart of water with several drops of detergent and a couple tablespoons of vinegar to make this nifty homemade pet odor removal mixture.
Apply your new homemade pet odor removal mixture to fresh pet stains. If the pet stain has already dried out, you may be too late.
A third homemade pet odor removal is Borax. Sometimes it will clean a soiled area well, but the best property of this homemade pet odor removal is its ability to remove unpleasant odors.
As always, if your homemade pet odor removal solutions don’t quite do the job, you can always call the pros at National Carpet Cleaning Specialists.

Many customers that I have cleaned, have pointed out that the previous cleaner could not remove those black lines around the baseboards and under closed doors? These black lines are between a quarter of an inch to half inch in width and travel down the length on the wall.
This type of soiling is called Soil filtration. Its the airflow contaminants that are trying to pass through a door or the crack in the wall. This contamination is similar to what you find in your air conditioning filter.
As the air passes through the edge of the carpet pile, the microscopic soiling is deposited there, (hence the term filtration soiling). This build up occurs over a extended period of time and is not noticed until a build up has occurred.
This type of soiling is very difficult to remove because the soil particles are so fine that they penetrate deep into the carpet pile, sometimes into the backing of the carpet.
Removing this type of soiling is very difficult and requires special cleaning agents to assist in the process.
To help prevent soil filtration, vacuum and wipe the edges of the carpet on a regular basis.

Compare National Cleaning Specialist with other cleaning companies. Instead of the traditional ‘soak and suck’ method of steam cleaning (where the machine soaks the carpets and pads with water, then tries to suck back out as much as it can), National uses a process called Low Moisture Extraction (LME), which uses the power of Oxygenated Green Cleaning Solutions with hot water to release dirt from the fibers and lift it to the surface where it is whisked away by The Low Moisture Cleaning unit. Most Carpet Dry in 1 -2 hours
|
Steam Cleaners |
National Cleaning Specialist |
| Cleaning Method |
Steam Cleaning with hot water, chemical solutions and suction. |
Low Moisture Extraction - the benefits of hot water and powerful extraction, but uses less water than steam cleaning.  |
| Cleaning Results |
When done properly, steam cleaning can provide a deep clean. Be cautious of the excessive amounts of water used, which can get left behind – leaving a breeding ground for mold and bacteria. |
National Clean system, provides a deep down clean, extracting dirt from the carpet fibers without overloading the carpet with water. |
| Residues |
Most steam cleaners leave behind dirt-attracting residues. Carpets resoil quickly after cleaning |
National’s EcoClean® leaves behind no dirt-attracting residues so carpets stay cleaner, longer. |
| Wicking |
Because steam cleaners leave so much water in the carpeting, as it dries, the water wicks dirt to the surface. Carpets look dirtier faster. |
National Clean uses less water and high-power extraction to virtually eliminate wicking |
| Dry Times |
Carpets may take as long as 2 days to dry. |
Carpets cleaned with National proprietary system dry in 1-2 hours so you can get back to your daily routines. |
| Green |
Many carpet cleaning companies use harsh chemicals that may be harmful to Mother Earth. |
Only National uses The EcoClean cleaning solution for a deep, effective clean that’s also green. Many National’s cleaning products are green certified.  |
| Customer Satisfaction |
Not all carpet cleaning companies are alike. With experiences ranging across the board, select a trusted brand name. |

When it come to cleaning tile floors, It is important to understand what type of floor you are cleaning.
Ceramic Tile
Ceramic is a broad category that can include all tile that is made from clay and other non-metallic minerals.In general use, ceramic tile is used to describe tiles that don’t fall into one of the other groups. Most ceramic tile goes through a process called “firing” at high temperatures.
A key advantage of ceramic tile is resistant to alkaline, acids and solvent used in cleaning. Ceramic’s abrasion resistance keeps it from being scratched by gritty soil under foot if the grade of the tile matches the situation in which its being used. Ceramic tile flooring comes in a wide variety of styles, Colors and patterns.
Porcelain
Porcelain is high density ceramic tile made form special clays fired at high temperatures making it highly resistant to abrasion. One qualification to be called porcelain is that the tile must absorb less than .5% of its weight in water.
Choosing either type of tile floors will give you a very durable floor which can be easily cleaned and maintained.
