FAQs
More FAQs- Are there instructions to follow after my carpets are cleaned?
- Isn’t it hard to fix an area that is damaged on an acrylic floor? What if I drag a large piece of furniture across it and leave a scratch?
- Can I use off the shelf cleaning products on my floors?
Immediately after cleaning, it’s best to allow carpets to dry for 6-8 hours before walking on them. Walking on them may flatten the fibers. Use air movers if needed to help air circulation as this will speed up the drying time. If a carpet protector such as ScotchgardTM was applied, foot traffic should be minimized for up to 24 hours to let the product cure. Don’t move any furniture back in place until carpet is completely dry or the Scotchgard carpet protector has cured.
Acrylic finishes that are scratched can often be spray buffed or burnished so that the scratch is either less noticeable or repaired altogether. In many cases, applying a thin coat over the scratch is helpful. Call ServiceMaster of Downtown Toronto professionals for an on-site consultation.
Floors with urethane finish are easy to clean, and we recommend a neutral cleansing agent. ServiceMaster of Downtown Toronto can provide more information on a suitable product.
