Can your home make you and your family sick?

Government studies show that indoor air pollution is often worse than the smoggiest city air. One EPA study showed that

43% of homes tested had enough allergins to trigger alergies;

23% of homes had indoor air that could trigger an asthma attack.

Pollen, dust mites, bacteria, fireplace soot and toxic chemicals carried indoors on our shoes frequently invade our homes. This causes a variety of illnesses; especially asthma and allergies. Children and the elderly are particularly at risk.

"Steam Cleaning"

Not all cleaning systems are equal. We use hot water extraction, the only method that top carpet manufacturers recommend. Regular professional cleaning makes your home more beautiful, and actually saves you money because it will make your carpet last years longer. Most imporant of all, regular cleaning will maintain a healthy environment for you and your family.

ServiceMaster by Althouse Cleaning's powerful truck mounted cleaning machines heat the water to temperatures up to 200 degrees. This kills dust mites and bacteria. Pollen, spores. bacteria, lawn chemicals, pesticides and other irritants are removed by the machine's high-powered vacuum.

Your carpet stays clean much longer than when you use a rental carpet shampoo machine, because hot water extraction leaves no shampoo residue to attract new soil.

Shaw Industries, the world's largest carpet manufacture, requires professional cleaning be done by an IICRC Certified firm such as ServiceMaster by Althouse Cleaning, using hot water extraction because it will extend your carpet's life and inhance its beauty. Don't void your warranty by neglecting required professional cleaning.

ServiceMaster by Althouse Cleaning does not charge extra for these services or use pushy sales tactics. Some firms don’t even offer some of these services. Others will not respond to your phone call if you notice a problem a day later. (Unfortunately, a few “bargain” companies will clean your carpet with just plain cold water. Would you wash your clothes without detergent?) We offer truly professional carpet cleaning results and have done so since 1987. You deserve quality service!

In addition to normal carpet cleaning, Althouse removes pet odor and many extra-difficult spots. As always, estimates are free and your satisfaction guaranteed.
