But back to our client, Mrs Taylor’s comments and her experience of different cleaning companies.

This is what she had to say ..

“I have used A&G Chem-Dry before but I felt they had become expensive and so I tried other cleaning organisations.  They have all failed to do a good job.  So, my friend, who also uses A&G Chem-Dry, reminded me that you do an excellent job.

Barry Cowie, the technician who came to clean my suite, was professional and worked non-stop the whole time he was here.  I am delighted with the outcome and the suite looks great.”

Mrs Taylor, Breadsall,  Derby

We are not – and never will be – a “Bargain Basement” type of business, but we do believe that we offer a value for money service that is second to none, which has has been validated by Mrs Taylor’s (and many, many others) comments over the years.

Here’s another of our favourite phrases … “The proof of the pudding is in the eating”.  So call us today!

#Nottingham trending on Twitter!

18th April is a always a special day at A&G Chem-Dry as our four legged “Executive Director” Max the cocker spaniel dog, celebrates his birthday.

This year he’s 6 and, it has to be said, is getting a little full of himself, only agreeing to this outdoor “publicity shot” (as he grandly called it …) as long as he didn’t get wet.  Well, as the weather here in the East Midlands today is rain, rain and more rain, that was a tall order, but as always, we rose to the challenge!

Hope you like the photo.

How Regularly Do I Need To Vacuum?

Experts can’t stress enough how important it is that you vacuum regularly. This means at least once a week, and daily if you have pets or children. Most of the soil in a carpet is what’s known as ‘dry soil’.  That’s things like sand, grit and other particles that are harsh and will grind away at the base of the fibres or fabric causing premature wear. It is also important to remember that it’s not just your carpets that need vacuuming, your upholstery will benefit from it too.

What Type Of Vacuum is Best?

Generally speaking an upright vacuum with brushes is preferred over cylinder type vacuums, unless you have one with a powerbrush attachments.  This is because by ‘brushing’ the carpet you get more agitation, so more grit is dislodged. This results in much more of the dry soil being removed from the base of the carpet or fabric.  With upholstery remember to use the crevice tool and remove the crud that’s gone down the side of the cushions and frame too.

The vacuums we use and would highly recommend are Sebo Vacuum Cleaners. They have hospital grade filters and making the perfect for people with asthma and allergies.

What Is The Best Way To Vacuum?

Believe it or not there are specific methods to vaccuming. When vacuuming the carpet the best way to do this is to use slow, repetitive front-to-back motions in an overlapping sequence. A quick once over isn’t really sufficient. On the other hand, don’t press down or make too many passes over the same spot. Instead, move slightly to the left or right about every four strokes.

Take a look at our vacuuming cleaning tips to make sure you get the most out of your carpet cleaning.

• Don’t ignore those corners and crevices – these are really important areas as they are where dust builds up.
• “Top-down” clean to save yourself the step of vacuuming again after dusting. Dust blinds, window sills and furniture surfaces first, then vacuum away any fallen dust.
• Remember to remove and replace, or empty, vacuum bags when they are half to two-thirds full. They’ll work far more efficiently.

How Often Should You Vacuum?

We have recently been debating this very issue in the office. It’s a tricky situation. No one wants to make their visitors feel uncomfortable. But at the same time do you really want mud tracking into your beautiful clean carpets?

We found this fascinating information on the Healthy Child website which highlights what a huge impact this seemingly small issue could have on your home.

The professional cleaning industry estimates that we track 85% of the dirt in our homes in from the outside on our shoes or paws of pets. In a recent warning about lead exposure, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) specifically recommends that shoes remain outside the house. According to a report called The Door Mat Study, lead-contaminated soil from the outside causes almost all the lead dust inside homes. It notes that wiping shoes on a mat and removing them at the door cuts lead dust by 60 percent. The study explains that limiting the amount of dust and track-in may also help reduce exposure to lawn and garden pesticides, wood smoke and industrial toxins, mutagens, dust mites, and allergens.

It’s common sense that dirty shoes will shorten the life of your carpets, so maybe it is time we started asking people to take them off (or at least wipe them before they come in). Lets hope your guests don’t have cheesy feet!
